You may want to re-evaluate your standards for brilliance.

I know EXACTLY what you are going through. My car was flipped over as well. I was parked on 1300 Walnut. Right next to Robinsons Luggage. My car has been all over the news and websites and youtube etc. My car is the red Honda they turned over. I am in the same exact position as you. I recently lost my job and am unemployed. I don’t know how I am going to pay for my car either.

@jburnside

Man, C.theImpaler was right! You are retro. Not 1960′s retro but way fucking back in the 1860′s retro. This is at least the third time you’ve made a vaguely pro-slavery comment in the last week or two.

You probably wish this job was still available too:

@horseclaw. Ted lives at 1409 Ellsworth, a half block off of Broad St. I wouldn’t have thought twice about parking on this part of Broad St last night either. It was also the ONLY car within 4 blocks to get flipped too.

Total bad luck for a good guy. Throw him some money since he has been supporting the local art and film scene for years now through Padlock Gallery and Small Change Screenings.

i think asking for money is an awesome idea, yeah it wasn’t so smart parking on broad, but that doesn’t mean he deserves that.

well, the police and the Mayor’s office are no joke about IDing people in photos and videos.

but I love how Ted is still saying “go phils.” that’s love!

Sorry but I think the perpetrators should be rounded up and publicly caned then forced into slavery until this man’s car is paid for.

It’s hard to have much sympathy for anyone who thought parking on broad street last night was a good idea.

The audio is the best part of the clip. A nice ‘Go, Phillies’ cheer at the end kinda made everything ok.
