    My brother in arms! lol

    Was just having a conversation last week when the subject of roadside billboards came up, the other guy says to me that he reads every single one of them when he’s driving. I tell him when I look at billboards the only think I think about is how much fun it would be to cut them down and set them on fire. Dude looked at me like I had a dick growing out of my forehead.

      I live in the lovely state of Vermont where billboards are fucking illegal. 😍

      So, when we drive up to Georgia or South Carolina from Florida, there’s a point on I-75 where the Jesus billboards come out. Many of them are the usual “Babies have heartbeats” variety, but there’s also the following:

      • “Have you decided yet … Jesus” which we always render in an exasperated voice, aka “OMG have you decided yet? Jesus!”
      • “Go ahead, let go. I’ll catch you - Jesus” which we always respond to with “WTF Jesus just reach down and grab me, you’re RIGHT THERE!”
      • “Jesus is in control” with mysterious Russian tanks and American soldiers.
      • Zombies and Jesus for … reasons.

      I can’t say that I can agree with you more.

      A new bright as FUCK billboard was put up on a frequent road I travel. I want it GONE and the people responsible for it to just die.

      It’s seriously a hazard at night…

        This screens fade so fast.

        Call them up and say it’s already looking dimmer. Repeat monthly. You could gaslight them into thinking it’s dying fast. And those things aren’t cheap.
