As an Australian I am horrified at this. What kind of city forbids public barbecue?
What’s next, forbidding public displays of joy?
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 corporatesI 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.
>Understands engagement bait
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
Parilla guerilla
Lo siento, no hablo español
Ok so tell us what parilla means.

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.
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.
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.
