The Oregon city of Bend has spent $1,500 (£1,188) on removing googly eyes from seven of the eight sculptures impacted.

Then leave them there…

Clearly someone’s never heard of the Streisand Effect.

Yeah. If there a better way to enshrine sticking googly eyes on statues as an absolutely unshakeable part of your local culture, I don’t know it.

You don’t own the world, man. You just live in it. You don’t get to demand what people are going to do to their public spaces just because someone gave you an office to sit in for a little while.

Perfect!! How do I now become the guy they pay to “remove” the googly eyes?
