Wow so the whole homophobic argument aside is this not the ugliest thing you guys have ever seen?



I thought they were putting this off 17th somewhere where I wouldn't have to look at it.

They put this outside of city hall?



How long until it snows

Meh, I'm indifferent.

It is what it is, and with Nenshi as our mayor things like this will get the green light especially when privately funded.

Just get someone to do a huge burnout on it, and see if the smoke will change colour as you move across it...haha...

They had to choose somewhere where it was 30 feet wide

its not even tastefully done, with like colored cobblestones or something.

At least with calgarys abysmal road maintenance and snow removal this should be very temporary.

8 grand for that. I have seen better chalk drawings.

No worse than the Peace Bridge, light-up statue thing/homeless hangout on 12th ave, or the circle on 96th ave that nobody knows isn't just a lamp post. At least this one was cheap

That would be funny, but I'm sure it would only take a few seconds for someone to cry "hate crime".

So first... that is one shitty paint job. Also the colors aren't even spaced correctly giving my OCD a panic attack.

And in the end it looks like a bunch of grade school kids painted it.

I think it looks cool. Don't understand why there's so much hate, especially when it was privately funded

[msommers]

I think they should have got a gay guy to design it - certainly would have been better looking.

There is no hate, a bunch of us are saying its ugly.

Although lol at only 9 posts before someone called criticizing something super ugly as "Hate"

[JRSC00LUDE]

How stupid.


Why didn't they do something great, like hang a giant prism that would cast a rainbow over the whole city as the sun moves.

[suntan]

Looks about right for a city project.

Because it's f*&king hideous?

[88CRX]

Wait, so its permanent? Saw it this morning and it looks like it will wash away after a couple rain storms.

edit: and if its privately funded you can paint whatever you want across a sidewalk? Beyond crowd funding to paint the cross walk at Stephen Ave/McLeod south?

Why do gay people feel the need to wiggle their penises infront of your face all the time just to make sure that you're aware they're gay.

Nothing says "flamboyant" like a massive fucking rainbow painted on a street.

Well how would you know it's not delicious if you don't try one? They're just being polite.

Maybe they just think you're a big ol' catfish!
