Jonathan and the Water Tower

[Ran]

A couple weeks ago, I had to climb up a 180' water tower for work.




There was a cleaning crew there and they built scaffolding all the way up.



So I climb up 180 feet, and this is what I saw on the very top rung of the last ladder:



It's kind of hard to see with the shadow, but it says "Jonathan is Gay O YES". The "O YES" is really what made it funny...well that and I was 180' up in the air. I'm kind of pissed it didn't come out as well as I hoped.

Anyway, here are some other pictures I took. A couple skylines of the Las Vegas Strip and some desert photos for you boys back east.








Woo! I got panoramic to work!

So, let the discussion begin. Who is Jonatan and what happened between him and Snigtad that caused Snigtad to write "Jonathan is gay o yes" on a some scaffolding?

Maybe cue the theme song from "Dallas" now..

I know that ain't the locale but the pics scream "introduction"

[anarky]

Tower's kinda out toward Henderson, but at a slight angle, am I right?

[Ran]

It is at the very end of Flamingo, past Boulder HWY and Sam's Town. Henderson would be south. The pic of the road in the desert is to the east, and the more desert-mountain is north.

JONATHAN IS GAY, O YES!! WHAT IS SO HARED 2 FIGUER OUT ABOUT THAT, HE IS A FAGGET!

YAY DOOSH!!!!!

[Rob Liefeld]

Snigtad Flornbi? Why is that name so familiar?

I just can't place it.

[Venkman]

Hey Rob! Rob! Hey Rob! Hey, did you need me to warm up your socks in the dryer? Or the toaster oven? Huh Rob? Or maybe I can drive to Salt Lake City and get you that Strawberry Shake from McDonald's you like so much because of that one time you were at the airport there and had a Strawberry shake and said it was pretty good. I can do that for you!!

You know, there's nothing that I find funny about the "Jonathan is gay" part of the message, but the "O YES!!!" just about kills me.

[jjreason]

What kills me is the level of douchiness in the 3 posts before your last one, GG. God damn, but it smells douchey is here.

[Ran]

If it wasn't for the "o yes", I wouldn't have posted the pictures.

[Ro11o Tomassi]

What's so funny about the "O Yes"? Obviously, the guy was just reinforcing what he'd just said.

[Ran]

My inspections took me through a neighborhood today, and I parked near the pool. Then I noticed Snigtad must have vandalized the sign.

[anarky]

"O Yes... Skateboards in Poo Area"?

That's kinky, even for Sniggy-poo.

i used "o yes" at dinner with my family the other night. it was awesome. there was a discussion of how sweet the sweet potato dish was that my father made and when i had some i said "this has exactly the right percentage of sugar in it, o yes!"

[mabudon]

Dude, I have TOTALLY adopted O YES as an important part of my vocabulary- I'm seriously gonna start using it at work- a LOT of the customers are fuckin neanderthals who actualy say "give me twenny" or some such- since we have 2 types/grades AND a lot of folks have odd accents I have to repeat what I think they said (and as a bonus I pronounce the word "regular" as "reg-woo-lah" or "rag-oo-lah" alternatively)

So now the exchange will become

"How can I help you??"

"I need twenny dollars"

"20 dollars REGWOOLAH?? O YESSSSS!!!!"


Funniest thing is the prissiest of customers actually correct my pronunciation like as in "Ragwoolar??"? them "NO regular" like I can't even fuckin speak english- I know bein a pump jockey ain't all that but I am NOT retarded, fuckin cracks me up
