News / Portland Today In Pdx...Giant Blue Ice Penises

Do you have any idea why these things keep popping up? I've had two at a property I manage near 40th and Powell, and at first I thought it was just someone being a creative dick. But this morning I saw one in the Original Taco House parking lot, and the barista at the safeway starbucks on 39th just told me that they had three placed around their lot this morning. In case the pics are too blurry, they're about 14" long and maybe 8" in diameter. Have you heard anything?

GIANT BLUE ICE PENISES: A protest against the 12-lane Columbia River Crossing, perhaps?

Well, if Dr. Manhattan's giant blue schlong is in Watchmen, why can't it also be all over town?

They represent all the trolls who post on this blog. I'm looking at you (among others), cat moron.

Thanks for the constructive contribution, a.O. Nothing like off-topic personal attacks to raise the level of discourse.

Sorry that the penis exists and your young child has to face that fact Flabby.

Well Abusive, I can't help but notice that there are two adjacent Blogtown threads: One is about people who work in Portland, but choose to live in Vancouver. Then there's this one about someone leaving giant dick sculptures around Portland.

I wonder if there is some clue here about why some people would choose to move to the suburbs....

You do know that Pee Pees and Va Jay Jays exist in the burbs Blabbs? I understand not wanting your child to be exposed to pornography and/or overt sexuality before they can comprehend what such things are. But exposure to a "sculpture" of a piece of the anatomy can be a learning "tool" about teaching a child that ones body is not an object of shame. More than likely said child came about through the use of this "tool".

Thanks for the parenting tips. I promise I'm jotting them all down.

Weirdest Viral Marketing campaign for watchmen ever.

I was expecting people drawing in chalk on sidewalks or tagging billboards with "Who Watches the Watchmen" but I gotta admit, I'd have never called big blue ice dicks scattered all over the city.

Dear Blabby, I think giant blue dicks are awesome. And when that 12 lane bridge is done, you can grab up that kid and move your ass to Wa. that much faster! <3
