I like brutalism and that building suuuuuuuuuuucks

[–] Dojan@pawb.social 9 points 4 days ago

Absolutely. Brutalism has its place, it's an art, and like with any art you can execute it either poorly or well. I think given its name it likely shouldn't evoke feelings of boredom or disgust.

We have a funny example here in Sweden where this old brick building was torn down.

And replaced with this!

I wouldn't say that the first building was beautiful or anything, but it was definitely more pleasant to look at than the new building. The ironic part is that the new building houses the Swedish Royal Institute of Technology's architecture branch.

[–] marcos@lemmy.world 2 points 4 days ago

It's not brutalist.

And I don't get what all of you are seeing to suck, with the building being all covered up in shade panels so nobody can see any detail in it.

[–] wjrii@lemmy.world 1 points 4 days ago

I believe it's a dedicated parking garage, which admittedly only helps a little.

It’s a drop off mission point

Actually, it's "wrapped up like a douche"

[–] JoeBigelow@lemmy.ca 1 points 4 days ago (1 children)

You're being facetious right?

[–] Gerudo@lemmy.zip 3 points 4 days ago (1 children)

It's one of the most famous misheard lyrics. To this day, even knowing what it's supposed to be, I still hear "wrapped up like a douche" every time.

[–] JoeBigelow@lemmy.ca 1 points 4 days ago

I hear revved up correctly, but agree that Springsteen absolutely sounds like he's saying douche. I'll never understand why he pronounces it that way...

[–] derry@midwest.social 7 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Chicago right? It has that Chicago vibe. And I see the Kenzie Street sign.

[–] wjrii@lemmy.world 2 points 4 days ago

Yup, but it also might be lightly photoshopped. The Street View has a window right where the portajohn is sitting that looks pretty permanent, but this pic or the street view could be old.

Budget Dr. Who, aka Medical Student Who.

[–] 4am@lemmy.zip 2 points 4 days ago

Resident Who

(Actually that sounds like it might be a neat one-off crossover if done right…)

[–] taiyang@lemmy.world 2 points 4 days ago

Idk man, the quest indicator is clearly pointing to this portajohn and I can't figure out what I'm supposed to do in it. I might have to pull up a guide.

...are the revieved

That’s when ya squeeze one out even if ya don’t have to go

[–] ArcaneSlime@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 4 days ago

They put a porto-john outside the Kaaba now?
