Hey all... Let's agree quit with the Haiku's, and leave it to 'Haiku' only as it's a breath of fresh air to see something original. You guys are playing it to death.

Wait so you openly admit to pissing on another cities welcome sign?

For the first time in my life on this board I am actually embarrassed to be a member.. well wait second time.

Its all well and fun to joke, but to actually deface the city like that? Imagine if a Riders fan was pictured pissing on the Welcome to Calgary sign? This board would tear that person wide open. And not just because it is Calgary, but because of his actions. However, when we do it to someone else it is ok?

I think you're slightly overreacting. It is more juvenile and lame than anything. Defacing the sign? It's just a little urine, it's not like he spray painted something vulgar on it.

Have you never taken a leak in an alley or something?

"Suck it", well, at least they've upgraded from being stuck in the 80s to stuck in the 90s.

The thing is, it's not a normal welcome sign, it's some juvenile braggart saying suck it to everyone else, so they get a juvenile reaction.

I think this is awesome!

Good on whoever did this having some relatively harmless fun and bringing a smile to many people. 'Suck it Calgary' is white bread enough that we can all enjoy the prank. And the fact they did the other signs entering the city - fantastic. We could all lighten up a bit.

Please though, keep this thread up. I like it.

Let's just continue the conversation and pretend that it's not horribly photoshopped.

It was a joke... I've never actually taken a leak on the sign. I have wanted to though!

I peed on the Eiffel Tower...what does that make me? I had to pee. The Eiffel Tower was there. I peed. The tower didn't seem to care. Granted there weren't any flowers around it...

I had a Cat named Snowball, she died, she died.
Mom said she was sleeping, she lied, she lied.
Why, oh, why is my cat dead? Couldn't that Chrysler hit me instead?

Though I have to admit, I like the fact that they pulled a reverse Liberal Party of Canada here by pretending Canada ends at Winnipeg.
That's not extolling the virtues. It's just telling you the only places you can stop on the highway for gas or something to eat.
