Not an April Fool’s, I think

Posted on April 1, 2005 Written by Diane

All I can say is, I think we left LA just in time:

The police of Los Angeles have recently had a lot of fun, when they were filling out papers to register a series of car accidents. As it turned out, drivers were losing control and running into other vehicles because of a giant women’s pubis, which they could see displayed on the front part of an oncoming car. The LA police started desperately looking for the unfortunate pubis and came upon the tracks of young hairdresser, Nelly Node.

Nelly’s passion for arts made the young woman photograph her own crotch and put the zoomed picture on her Volkswagen Beetle. Nelly decided to use such a shameless method to prepare her college course work, in which she analyzed the art of design. The witty student’s idea worked for the college professors: she was proudly driving her “pubic beetle” until the police arrested the woman.

The court ruled that Nelly’s car was creating a dangerous situation on the roads: the girl had to paint her car’s bonnet over.

The link? Not work-safe. But somehow I have no trouble believing that this car was indeed on the roads.
