Citizen complaint of the day: The festering, color-changing gallon jug on the side of Comm Ave.

Oh what mysteries are contained within this bottle?

A concerned citizen files a 311 complaint about the bottle that's been sitting on Comm Ave. at Strathmore Road in Brighton for three weeks now:

This weird bottle of unknown content has been sitting on the curb and changing colors for like 3 weeks. I'd pick it up and throw it out but I have no idea what it contains and it's nasty.

Pandora's jug

For the love of god, don't open it!

My 2 cents

It's either used paint thinner or barf. In either case, not opening it is wonderful advice.

Not barf

I doubt somebody could direct their stream of barf into the narrow opening of that bottle.

That bottle is sort of white

So the city will let it leave the area on it's own recognizance.

It is now as tender as your feels!

And ready to explode!

Get this poor man a safe space. He's been TRIGGERED!

Your name isn't Paul Sheehan, is it?

Someone should introduce it

Someone should introduce it to the Random Hall Milk.

It took 3 weeks for someone

It took 3 weeks for someone to see something and say something. Oy

Just leave it alone, it's

Just leave it alone, it's about to hatch.

A bottle of white , a bottle of red

Good exterior grade wood glue.

What’s disconcerting

By anon on Wed, 07/03/2019 - 2:03pm.

is that the City has not touched this in over 3 weeks. If it wasn’t for 311 the City departments would do practically nothing, BTD tops the lazy list by the amounts of parking violations reported.
