Better idea incoming. Let's tie the homeless to milk cartons and then release dozens of wild cougars into the bike lanes to play with both the bikers AND the homeless. Win fucking win.greenblood said:
Couldn't they just offer jobs for some of the homeless, by having them stand on step ladders holding flashlights? Small footprint and you help with the homeless crises.Swaye said:
I'm sure these new ones are solar powered to reduce carbon footprint or some shit.greenblood said:
It said "new" street lights. Couldn't they just move the old ones?UWhuskytskeet said:
46 lights over 4.5 blocks = 10 a block. $8,000 a light = $368,000greenblood said:
$374k for streetlights?UWhuskytskeet said:In other words, someone at Fox found the most expensive project in the city - something that ran for FOUR BLOCKS - then calculated that if every project cost this much per city block then the total cost per mile would be that insane number. It's bullshit because there isn't a single mile of bike lane anywhere in Seattle that cost even close to $12 million to build. Nevermind the fact that it's the entire street being rebuilt, not just a bike path.
I'm sure Fox accidentally left out those details.
Street lights usually don't deteriorate. It's fabricated metal with wires running inside connected to a bulb.
Get somebody like me in charge. I'll solve your problems -
As long as rawhide is involved, I fully endorse this plan.Swaye said:

Thanos just needs to visit soon. His plan makes so much sense.

Cunts!

We should tell the homeless that a better life awaits them in Mexico. Hurry before they get wise and build a wall!

On other words, you fat fucks that are too fucking fat to get your fat ass on a fucking bike to get some fucking exercise while commuting to work or the store, don't like it when in shape people are in your way.Swaye said:

Fuck off.
That said, I'd much rather have separate bike lanes and not have them on roads. I say we just convert 50% of all of the streets in Seattle, to bicycle only. That way, the bikes won't be in the way of the cars and the fat fucks in the cars.
And... that said, I only ride about 10 times a year, and only when its sunny and only on weekends. But I fully support everybody else that rides daily. They are better than me, and way better than all of you fat fucking fucks.

Normal people don't exercise on the way to work. Fuck off.

Close downtown streets down and expand the areas around them.
Case closed -
Bicyclists pay zero taxes on their biking to cover all theses costs. Time for 300.00 a bike tax, yearly licenses of 200.00 and excise taxes on all parts and tires to pay for all this Shit!uzi said:

I'll take extra pleasure next time I flip that right plow wing out and knock a biker on his ass and hope it is @uzi
