I love the Brutalist architecture style. My personal favo(u)rite is probably the AmericasMart Building 3 in Atlanta:

Also a shoutout to the hometown:
Buffalo City Court Building - Wikipedia

Yeah, well that one actually looks good. I find most Brutalist structures to be ugly and lazy. Brutalism architecture without vision or philosophy is really just boring and hideous. My building might be the worst example.

Do you know how hard it is to get grass stains out of those things?
Billy Mays...oh wait nevermind...Anthony Sullivan can get it out with OxiClean along with the sh*t and blood stains from the flying cows.

It looks worse in person. It's hard to get a good sense of the scale of the building from that picture, but it is an absolute beast. I think it's something like 13 stories and several million square feet. And it's all concrete on the outside.

Most Brutalism is hideous, which is why I love it.

Why does Rob Ryan remind me of Malkin in an after whistle scrum?

Lol I got one of these from a hometown friend. She invited us over for a BBQ and I responded by text. I happen to have the same name as her husband, so I guess I was the most recent "Dacks" on her list and she started texting me errands to run the following Monday. "Pick up milk when you get the eggs, etc... " that kind of shit.

Anyway, as a friendly joke I responded "what's in it for me?" and lemme tell you, Dacks #2 is a lucky man! :eek:

So, how was the BBQ? Not awkward at all, was it?
