Panties!

posted by on September 24 at 9:22 AM

I caught hell for Slogging about a few computer monitors left in the traffic circle at 14th & Howell a year or so ago. A few additional monitors appeared at the intersection after I wrote about it, and I soon stood accused of leading an assault on the pristine natural wilderness that had been the traffic circle at the intersection of 14th & Howell.

But I can’t be blamed for this…

Someone has scattered clothes—mostly panties—all over this long-suffering intersection.

Ugh! I live on 14th & Howell. I just ran outside to check and make sure they weren't mine. Sometimes you never know.

I used to live on that corner. That island has always looked like shit so the make-shift art installations like the painted tires and the computer monitors were actually kind of interesting.

Isn't it possible that someone just lost their load on the way to the laundromat? I've lost many a coffee cup to that scenario...

@3. The best thing that has ever happened to the cirle was the monitors. Last night when I drove past there I thought it was a bunch of dead kitties. I was releaved to see that it was just undies.

Was Tom Jones or Engelbert Humperdinck performing in that little traffic circle?

All that's missing really is a shopping cart and some naked doll parts.

Those are just left over underpants from that sex party on 12th Avenue East last month that got busted by the cops.

You fools! Isn't it obvious that the One Righteous Person in Seattle happened to be at that intersection at the very moment of Rapture?

(Oh, and you can tell she was Righteous because she was wearing multiple pairs of undies to thoroughly protect her Naughty Bits.)
