The Hollywood Sign is for sale

Huh?

Go on, don't tell me you don't care about the sign!

― Nathalie (stevie nixed), Friday, 25 November 2005 09:09 (twenty years ago)

He's sold off bits of it. It's tainted.

IT'S A METAPHOR

How many bedrooms has it got?

He's selling a bunch of white metal sections of the old sign ("there's only one sign!" vs. "old one broken down and put in storage, new sign built"), it's not like nine trucks will show up at your house, each transporting one complete letter or something.

Furthermore, I sold 5 large sections last year, and I promised the buyers that I would not sell any more "full unaltered sections to the public". The winning bidder must honor these commitments.

Er. if it's my sign surely I can do whatever the hell I like with it?

Er... but yeah, it's the Hollywood sign! Woohoo!

(/feeling guilty for being underwhelmed while Nathalie was so enthusiastic)

― StanM (StanM), Friday, 25 November 2005 10:29 (twenty years ago)

Heheh. :-)

i'm sorry for not being excited but i live in an apartment, so where would i put it???

― ESTEBAN BUTTEZ~!!, Friday, 25 November 2005 12:20 (twenty years ago)

against the wall and pee all over it like ANDY WARHOL!

― Nathalie (stevie nixed), Friday, 25 November 2005 12:23 (twenty years ago)

but i already did that with the stained window i stole from the church

― ESTEBAN BUTTEZ~!!, Friday, 25 November 2005 12:24 (twenty years ago)

Just the one window? Step up.

this is bullshit. it sounds like a pile of scrap metal with chunks cut out of it already...

"If you were to lay out all of the pieces on a football field, you may be able to reassemble many of the letters. If you want to rebuild the entire sign, you would need to fill in the missing gaps."

― Fritz Wollner (Fritz), Friday, 25 November 2005 14:56 (twenty years ago)

i mean if it was in good shape i would totally buy the hollywood sign for $300,000 but this sounds like a scam

― Fritz Wollner (Fritz), Friday, 25 November 2005 14:57 (twenty years ago)

Fritz, you future daddy you, clean out your mouth! You can no longer use words like bullshit! ;-)

― Nathalie (stevie nixed), Friday, 25 November 2005 15:22 (twenty years ago)

Or have $300,000 spare cash.

― mark grout (mark grout), Friday, 25 November 2005 15:23 (twenty years ago)

sold! (not that original auction linked above, though)

But no worries, he's still selling pieces of it as well.

― StanM (StanM), Wednesday, 7 December 2005 11:15 (twenty years ago)

I wonder what the new order will do with it. I'd piss all over it. *mwahahaha*

― Nathalie (stevie nixed), Wednesday, 7 December 2005 12:33 (twenty years ago)

Would you let your dog watch?

― StanM (StanM), Wednesday, 7 December 2005 12:35 (twenty years ago)

Nathalie, you're kinda obsessed with peeing on the Hollywood sign!

― Casuistry (Chris P), Wednesday, 7 December 2005 12:53 (twenty years ago)

I wonder what happened to the extra four letters that disappeared years and years ago?

(from back when the sign said HOLLYWOODLAND)

― Forest Pines (ForestPines), Wednesday, 7 December 2005 13:00 (twenty years ago)

Would you let your dog watch?

But of course! She could join in on the fun.

Casuistry, yes, it's FUN and HEALTHY. ;-)

I wonder what happened to the extra four letters that disappeared years and years ago?

I suspect Tommy Lee knicked'em and used'em.
