I really wish billboards were illegal
In some cities they are, and it's a beautiful thing. An example is Canberra, Australia.
I live near Seattle Washington and there are very few here. Pretty much only on Indian Reservations. But last summer I was on a road trip that took me through Salt Lake City Utah and there were SO MANY BILLBOARDS along the interstate there. I can’t believe the people put up with it.
There are godamne billbords there especialy past the airport and on bus stops etc
It's literally what Times Square in Manhattan is known for.
Wow I did not notice that this was the case. Gotta appreciate this a bit the next time I visit.
I moved from somewhere with billboards all over the place to somewhere signs over 6 feet tall are illegal
It’s breathtakingly nicer
Time for AR where you can replace all those puplic ads with, umm, nsfw art, for example.
They can be a bit too much, but thanks to a billboard I found out that one of my favorite bands (Morcheeba) are playing in my city.
