S. Starr witnessed this space-saving toilet placed on Trenton Street before the snow really started this morning.

street toilet
someone once threw a toilet through my windshield when I was living in brighton.
Space saver?
Or dadaist street art?
Did dadaism have a brown
Did dadaism have a brown period?

NOT FART
like the poet says
Here I sit, so brokenhearted
Came to shit but only farted
Space Savers
That's a bunch of sht!
Ingenuity
I guess if the city really is enforcing the no-space-saver rule, this is a good way to dispose of items that wouldn't be collected in the regular garbage.
Ya because
BPD has nothing better to do! This is obviously the act of a hardened felon!
Hardened bowels...
Let loose I say!!
Toilet
That was my first thought. What a way to
dispose of items the city will not pick up.
Bring out
Your bags of asbestos shingles. Cheaper than Clean Harbors.
Several hours later ...
It's still there:
Someone needs to
open the lid so the bowl fills with snow.
I think
I think there's no parking emergency in Boston so a space saver cannot be used..............
It's not about parking emergencies
It's about whether you shoveled out a parking spot (and no, no one has to shovel out today) or if you're a lazy ass and just pull out and put a space saver out.
Umm
No parking emergency + Space Savers = Street Trash
Come N get'em DPW...
And sometimes there are other emergencies
And when you are walking down that street, with either your bladder or bowels about to burst, you will be thanking that thoughtful citizen for giving you "comfort"
"about to burst"
That brought back memories. Sometimes you just can't get rid of that inner 10-year-old:
When you really gotta go
an emergency, not snow
toilet saver, toilet saver
And you see it on the street
and you gotta go excrete
toilet saver, toilet saver
Go ahead and use that potty
Close your eyes and think of Mahty
toilet saver, toilet saver
Will they like the space as much
after Taco Bell for lunch
toilet saver, toilet saver
Will they still think it’s their space
once you’ve bowelized the place
toilet saver, toilet saver
We can call this
a commode to go?
Can't wait for a plow to take
Can't wait for a plow to take that out. Moron.
It'll probably go straight
It'll probably go straight into some innocent person's car.
or depending on the time of day
an innocent persons space saver
I'm Not Anti-Spacesaver...
... but whoever did this deserves all possible punishment.
Not only was it placed prior to any shoveling, but it is a big heavy WHITE object. If snow had reached anywhere near covering it, it would have been a serious hazard for a plow or a car or whatever other unsuspecting poor soul encountered it without seeing it first.

who done it?
At least the culprit left the police something to go on.
Something to go on?
umm... that would be, "something to go in," wouldn't it?
And they say
There aren't enough public restrooms
I wish
I wish someone would go in it! I mean really leave a mark!
This whole space saving thing is getting worse and worse, I hope someone does something stupid so they put an end to the selfish people who use space savers.
Shooting someone made no
Shooting someone made no difference, so I guess it's gotta be murder. None of this "attempted" weaksauce.
Only the best for our world-class city.
I very much disagree with your statement
And it has nothing to do with your views on space saving. The specific words
implies that you want to see violence. I don't. I don't want to see violence. I want to see a reasoned discussion of the issues.
Take that, Cambridge
Nah, this is just someone showing Cambridge you can build a public toilet for less than $400,000.
