This kinda stuff is generally comes off as gimmicky but this one goes waaaay beyond that as exhibited by the sheer lever
of insane engineering and precision. Well played sir.

Looks like a bit of craic all right….

These wonderful photographs were taken the amazing Steven Siegel. He has been documenting New York City’s five boroughs (and beyond) for over three decades now…. you can view more of his collection here.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Hey look at that. Severed sunbaked penises are now considered ‘new’.

So here’s the thing: Los Angeles is not a great place. I say that from an East Coast perspective, which is to say,
the most enlightened perspective on earth (perhaps next to the French when it comes to the matter of coquettish pouting).
But that’s not the point. The point is that when you walk down the street in LA, lamenting the fact that you are in LA,
you come upon something like this: an object so suited to sit against the blue backdropped eternal road that is Los Angeles.

Mike the Headless Chicken (April 1945 – March 1947), was a Wyandotte chicken that lived for
18 months after his head had been mostly cut off. Thought by many to be a hoax, the bird’s
owner took him to the University of Utah in Salt Lake City to establish the facts of the story.

Once his fame had been established, Mike began a career of touring sideshows in the company
of such other creatures as a two-headed calf. He was also photographed for dozens of
magazines and papers, featuring in Time and Life magazines.

Curiosity is the surest sign of intelligence.
Unless you are curious about what a beached whale being liquidized with explosives looks like at close range.
Then its not very intelligent.

I salute you sir. Just look at him, the man is clearly a national treasure and has devoted his entire life to his passion,
miniature animatronic fuck machines.  They also smack of Fritz Lange’s Metropolis. The best quote is highly debateable
but I like this one maybe because he’s just so matter of fact about it:

[holding up a robot horse with an extendable penis] “And he also has a f*ckable butt.”

This plate is real old and a depiction of every day life, so the content is non-ironic.  Just a couple of guys on the job, keepin it real, clubbin seals…

I found the internet. He is a 57 year old male, formidable mustache, confident gait.

My work explores the relationship between acquired synesthesia and recycling culture. With influences as diverse as Derrida and Miles Davis, new insights are extrapolated from both opaque and transparent meanings….

On this day of great sadness, lets remember him in happier times:

There’s been too many good Manhattan Ministorage ads over the years to count, especially during an election year and these are just a few of the recent high lights. A coat hook, really? Damn.

Look, it will go like this: you will be instructed to go one way by some, the opposite way by others. In the not-too-far distance will be a place of solace. You will have no way to get there. There is no road leading there. But at the end of the day, if you have your health, you should really shut the fuck up. Metaphorically speaking, of course.

I once rear-ended a taxi in my Volkswagen Polo and my insurance company tried to wriggle out of it, so good luck clearing up this mess lads.
Though these cars still look prettier post crash than my wee wheels looked pre crash!
