If I lived in Portland, I'd start doing this just to prove Snopes wrong.

[–] Gladaed@feddit.org 17 points 2 days ago (1 children)

... this should be obvious to everyone. There is no way people wouldn't drive over them.

My mind went to the joke about how there will never be marijuana in a kid's Halloween bag because nobody is going to waste marijuana like that. I was like there's no way in hell someone is wasting marijuana plants like that lol

nobody is going to waste marijuana like that

I'm old enough to remember parents back in the 80s handing out cigarettes and beers to the other parents in the neighborhood as we went around Trick or Treating.

Marijuana just isn't that expensive. Very easy for me to believe a house would be handing out joints to consenting adults as a joke or even an advertising stunt.

Marijuana?!? I never heard that! Where/when I was growing up, it was always hard, powdered drugs. Like cocaine in a pixie stick. Oh and razorblades in candy apples. I don't know about the razor blades, but if I remember right, there's only been one proven instance EVER of people intentionally trying to harm kids through Halloween candy, and it was the father? Or step father? So I wouldn't even really count that.

Lmfao! God damnit, now I can expect to see that all over the Internet in a month and a half. "Mothman puts pistols in candy!"

Be the change you want to see in the world

Get out of here with your fact checking

[–] glitchdx@lemmy.world 10 points 2 days ago

yeah, don't outsource critical thinking.

[–] Seleni@lemmy.world 4 points 2 days ago

I mean, given how Mill Ends Park got started, it does sound at least plausible…

[–] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 23 points 2 days ago

That's what they're for, ain't it? Why else would they be called pot holes?

Instead plant endangered tree species so it’s illegal to remove them.

[–] morphballganon@lemmynsfw.com 21 points 2 days ago

Nobody who would remove them in the first place would give a shit whether they're endangered

[–] kamenlady@lemmy.world 14 points 2 days ago

Obligatorische "porque no los dos?" Frage.

[–] Mango@lemmy.world 9 points 2 days ago

You think the people who would remove them are checking?

[–] LibertyLizard@slrpnk.net 4 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Sadly the endangered species act doesn’t apply to garden plants or similar.

[–] BluesF@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Can you imagine if it did? Such potential for abuse lmao. "Sorry neighbour that I hate, I planted a rare tree on your doorstep, guess you're stuck with it now!"

[–] LibertyLizard@slrpnk.net 1 points 2 days ago

Yeah it wouldn’t really be workable that way lol

[–] LibertyLizard@slrpnk.net 10 points 2 days ago

Great idea but I think I’ll do banyan trees instead.

[–] trashgirlfriend@lemmy.world 21 points 2 days ago

guerilla gardening

[–] ayyy@sh.itjust.works 6 points 2 days ago

[–] Chuymatt@beehaw.org 4 points 2 days ago

Well? It’s in the name, is t it?
