Was the road officially closed?

A funny thing about life is a lot of things happen unofficially, and humans do fine at adjusting to such situations.

Plenty of humans also accidently wander into places they’re officially not allowed to be in, much less unofficially.

I only wander into places I am not allowed on purpose.

It was the Chinatown Lunar New Year’s celebration. What do you think?

I don’t believe it was, based on the other cars present in the videos.

And were the “violators will be set on fire” signs posted?

What do you expect to happen if you park in the middle of a fireworks show?

FaceDeer@kbin.social · 1 年前

I didn’t realize that a “fireworks show” meant “showing how fire works (by burning down any cars that happen to be present).”

They always have fireworks in Chinatown on Chinese New Year. No human would be dumb enough to park there.

No human would be dumb enough to park there.

There’s at least 3 other cars parked there clearly visible in the videos.

FaceDeer@kbin.social · 1 年前

But if one did anyway, torching their car would be fine?

deegeese@sopuli.xyz · 1 年前

Yes, that’s exactly what I’m saying. /s

Do you need a sign for every decision you make?
