This reminds me of a friend of mine, whose great grandfather is the reason the suburb he grew up in still has a law requiring owned guns to be stored with the police. Apparently the old man was a proper bastard and had a habit of hanging out in his porch, shotgun in hand, terrorizing other residents.
Sounds to me like a legal workaround is to have an invite-only barbecue then have a stack of invites and write them out as people come up. "Its not public, its invite only! Why yes I'd be happy to give you an invitation!"
FYI, you can make an excellent wheeled barbecue from an old shopping cart.
As an Australian I am horrified at this. What kind of city forbids public barbecue?
What's next, forbidding public displays of joy?
Shut the fuck up. Don't give them any ideas!!!
I'd be fine with it if people could throw their fucking trash in a bin and leave the place like they found it.
It's the same thing
Does anyone have something to clean the cum stain off the word "fucking"?

>Posts a meme about being ungovernable.
>Self censors to appease the tech bro corporates
>Understands engagement bait
The fact we live in a time where engagement creates more push for the algorithm so more videos can be viewed by more people rather than just making good content that people share because it's good is literally the fucking problem.
Because it's so much easier to make shit and have a cum stain over the word Fuck than just make good content.
I can't believe people still fall for the bait lol
There's a youtuber called Spookston whose editor purposefully puts smoke alarm chirps in his videos and EVERY TIME there's hundreds of comments telling him to replace the battery lol
Someone always says this like the intention being engagement bait doesn't make it even worse.
I don't think it's any better, just that it's part of the standard playbook. Up there with the unnecessary red circle and arrow pointing at nothing.
I'm entering a phase where I'm not sure if the red arrow is pointing at nothing, or at something I'm just too old to understand/notice/care about
I didn't make this. I just stole it and it already had the cum stain.
I kinda thought so, I was referring to the opp.
Parilla guerilla
Lo siento, no hablo español
Ok so tell us what parilla means.
Grill
Okay well it seems like you speak Spanish then
Aye yi yi!
Regulating public life is always a balancing act between assholes ruining the fun for everyone and the regulations ruining the fun. You can bet that if public barbecuing was allowed, assholes would dump their trash everywhere and start fires by being careless.
Some other societies do a better job of policing themselves via social pressure. Unfortunately in the US it’s “fuck you, you can’t make me.”
Unfortunately in the US it’s “fuck you, you can’t make me.
A surprising amount of that is literally just asshats banking on nobody telling them to cut it out, because there is also very much a culture of just quietly being upset by the bad behavior then later posting loudly on a local public Facebook group instead of just walking up and asking them to turn the music down/pick up the trash/not set off fireworks in the middle of the airshow (a real world example where I spoke out on and the person immediately backed off and stopped setting off the fireworks)
Great idea, instead of punishing the people that dump their trash everywhere, just go and outlaw some unrelated activity!
Well, you have to catch people dumping their trash to punish them. Most often, you'll only see the aftermath of discarded packaging and sometimes whole grills.
Back in the 60s and 70s, it was very common to see anti-littering ads on TV, paid for by the government. They were ubiquitous, you would see them on TV every day.
The result was that young people grew up with the idea of littering being absolutely unthinkable. I remember seeing friends scold their parents for littering. Today, those ads don't exist, and I often see young people littering.
If the government went back to encouraging people to respect their community and the environment, it would solve most of the problem without having to pass laws, cite people, arrest people, etc.
If the government went back to encouraging people to respect their community......
HAHAHA right. Listen to those that disrespect the community the most..
oh shit! well payed police work takes effort!
Hi from Australia, where free public barbecues have been around for decades and that doesn't happen. Maybe you just live in a country full of arseholes.
In my neck of the woods (in the US) every public park has places for grilling. These places are usually kept clean. Local culture can vary a lot tho
Maybe you just live in a country full of arseholes.
I mean, it's likely the US so yeah no shit
Footloose reboot just dropped!
