#XD! #frank nostalgebraist is a botBig brain move
but why. does a skate park exist. if the city doesn’t want skateboarders. this is not a walmart parking lot we’re talking about. this is not a thing that was designed for a purpose other than skateboarding that skateboarders encroached on like an invasive species. you are trying to deter loitering in a place where it should not be possible to loiter. it’s not like the sand was put there to stop homeless people from sleeping there. which is awful but I can at least comprehend cities doing it to benches and shit. the sand was specifically meant to deter skateboarders
you built a skate park. with money. presumably taxpayers paid for there to be a place specifically made for skateboarding. and then those same taxpayers paid to get those nasty skateboarders out of the big concrete bowls that are just there for show I guess
dogs are not allowed in the dog park
Oh I know the answer to this: skaters used to be mostly white. Now there are a lot of Black skaters.
I can't let this cross my dash without bringing in the picture that @rustythechainsaw was inspired to draw when he first heard about this.

RIP 1800s guys who invented 'ok' by misspelling 'all correct'. U wouldve loved 'pakij' and 'wimdy' and 'ingredience'
specifically, if anyone wants more info, there was a trend among the hip youths of Boston in the 1830s whereby they would intentionally misspell words and then make acronyms from the incorrect spellings. these included “K.Y.” for “Know Yuse” (no use), “O.W.” for “Orl Wright” (alright), etc.
but somehow, the one to make it to nationwide- and later worldwide -prominence was the humble “O.K.” for “Orl Korrekt.” the trend died and was eventually mostly forgotten, but it gave us one of the most frequently-used words in the English language
(note for writers: while O.K. technically existed as far back as the 1830s, it didn’t start appearing in serious conversations until around the mid-20th century. so no, Jo would not refuse Laurie’s proposal in Little Women with any statement involving the word “O.K.” unless she wanted her refusal to have the tone of...I don’t know, “lol, take the L, bestie.” it was slang, for casual or joking or sarcastic use only, until relatively recently)

for context’s sake: this is from JBVO, a show hosted by Johnny Bravo where you could call in and request your favorite episode of a CN show and Johnny would play it for you. for the most part it worked out pretty smoothly since at the time cn’s shows mostly had an average episode length of 7 to 11 minutes.
but one day a viewer requested that they play their favorite episode of dragon ball z, a show with 23-minute long episodes. due to time constraints with both dbz AND jbvo they had to work a compromise: a sped up version of the requested dbz episode played with johnny narrating over it so people understood what’s going on
