1) It's an old video, not really funny anymore and very played out.
2) It's about a rapist, last I checked rapists don't steal manhole covers to have sex with the drain holes forcibly.
3) Why abuse the multimedia abilities of this forum to link to such old, boring garbage.
4) How does one go from stealing pot hole covers to raping people? I guess you could make the argument that rape and stealing man hole covers is both forcibly uncovering holes for entry, however I digress.

I am quite upset with your post.

Looks like you've got more time on your hands than the kids that stole these manhole covers.

Wow. just wow.

In other news, man hole covers are round because it's the only shape that cannot fall through its own hole.

^ and round man hole covers can be rolled easily by the person handling them.

You seem to know a lot about manhole covers and how to transport them in the quickest and easiest fashion.

You were the one stealing them huh? Hook, line sinker.

Reported to RCMP.:troll:

id make a remark but everytime I try to say something all I remember is your sculpted quads in a pair of short shorts. Like they were chiselled out of limestone at the hands of Michael angelou himself. Alas, I digress.

VANCOUVER (NEWS1130) - The City of Vancouver says your safety is being put at risk by some really bizarre thefts.

Metal storm drain grates that cover catch basins in the city are being stolen; 47 have been swiped since Monday. Murray Steer manages the city's sewers and tells us most are being taken from laneways or back alleys.

"This has been hit and miss across the board. I can say that it's been predominantly south of 41st [Avenue], basically across the whole city. But there seems to be no rhyme or reason for the locations," he explains.

He believes whoever's doing it is trying to get scrap metal money, but points out the grates are essentially worthless.

Steer adds the open holes left behind can put you in danger; they're wide enough to have a small person or animal fall through and are up to six feet deep. "Once we get a call, we've been responding as soon as possible to cover it."

The police are also involved. If you see a cover missing, you can call the city's 3-1-1 hotline.

Someone should tell the thieves that the grates that are $$$ are in the bike lanes.

Gridlock 06-07-2012 02:00 PM

Rather than trying to catch guys in the act, we need to clamp down on shitbag scrap metal dealers, like the one below the Patullo bridge.

I went to one yesterday to sell off some scrap and there are signs everywhere...no ladders, no new material, no civic property.

Others are dirtbags, and the dirtbags who take this shit know exactly where to go.

I hope those fuckers slip into the hole and have the grates fall on them.

Instant karma win.
