After reading trough the comments, german roads look like polished marbel to me now
Kreaken
Is that the hole cake?
UnhelpfulAnswers
That's a pothole? Pathetic!
Blellushka
Oh my, Colin Caterpillar Cake!! Had one every birthday when I was home there.
Aethers
That’s a Boston pinhole
firtrach
It got a Collin the Caterpillar cake, lucky pothole! Those things are awesome
KevinBhall
Trinidad anyone?
JimmyAllyoucaneatBuffett
Ha! Come to South Carolina. We have potholes that are older than millennials
tankygirl
Not sure why there isn't a comment about someone putting their dick in it... But also just plant a tree in there and the city will fix it.
ShowingSPM
I hate to be that guy, but that isn’t a pot hole
ashackatak
How do you know, I don’t see any ????
AromaOfFineDiamonds
Right? There's no weed in it.
Nuttburger
Ha! Boofing
shush1
I hit a pothole friday that disabled 5 other cars while I was waiting for the tow truck.
shush1
Oh, but the good news is my city has room in the budget to try becoming a "sanctuary city".
0xFADE
The key is to spray paint a dick on it. There is documented evidence it works.
TeeMee123
a Colin the Caterpillar cake! classy
imsuchaweirdo
Haha. There was a man in Manchester who apparently drew penises around potholes to make the city fix them faster
cantthinkofanythingwhittyyet
Do what I did, Report pothole > doesn’t get fixed 2 years > mrs falls over it with pram > £3500 claim
nugo520
more people went to that potholes birthday then mine, they even got it a cake, i had to get my own, same one though
narniasreal
I love how passive aggressive British people are
RiverBear
The passive aggression in this pic is tip top!
pompa
Am from Notts. Can confirm the plot holes are this bad
tembahisarmsopen
Spray paint a dick around it. It usually works.
TheGuyWithTheAppleTattoo
Wanksy did it
FlyingButtPliers
Honestly that would make it more visible so even if not fixed I can avoid it. I'm happy with the paint.
cousteau
I've considered getting a spray and start marking potholes to make them visible, but I don't want to get in trouble doing someone else's job
LissBear
I held a party for the anniversary of a broken light on the ward I work on which I reported to estates a year ago last Sunday. Hospital life
UmamiMama
Portland will plant trees...
BennyGaga
We plant marijuana in Colorado.
cousteau
Isn't that what those holes are for? Says so in the name!
TheCynicalShit
Trust my fat ass to know this is the caterpillar cake from Sainsbury's. Tasty too.
ProfessorDumbass
How much does one cost? Would it have been cheaper for them to buy some tar and rocks and fill the hole?
Earlkay
£5-8 depending on shop
coloredgreyscale
how filling is it?
socratesboytoy
yo what the fuck are yall talkin about. That looks lime a dope canoli
hanstar89
Not the one from m&s?
TheCynicalShit
Nah the M&S one has more Smarties
Earlkay
Colin is traditionally from Marks and Sparks and is approximately 27 years old. Org supermarkets have ripped him off but they are inferior.
stuey909
You can get caterpillar cakes at loads of places, ASDA have one too. I imagine the M&S one is better though.
Smayds
It's not just a caterpillar cake. It's a Marks & Sparks Barks Farks Darks Narks.
zippydee
Ooooh look at you being able to afford to shop in M&S, the rest of us get our Caterpillar cakes from the low-brow shops
curseyoursudenbutinevitablebetrayal
I bought stuff from a Waitrose once. Now that really gives you a false sense of entitlement.
amyhadalittlepond
I earn min wage and shop at m&s/Waitrose. I figure food is a big part of my life so why skimp when I could have the tastiest caterpillar.
Earlkay
There’s £1 difference between Colin and “wiggles”
zippydee
You know what man, it's my birthday in a week, Imma get myself a caterpillar cake from M&S. I'm guna live large before I join the club
Earlkay
uberarticuno
Ok but I do have a question. Why the fuck were all our birthday cakes a caterpillar?
zippydee
Huh. That's....a very good question
Earlkay
Because Colin was so fucking good. He’s also. Cheap, still only £7 when most bought cakes set you back £10+
TheCynicalShit
Plus it was easy to cut into slices. None of this triangle wedge malarkey.
BuddahsBrother
Yay for Nottingham. That's two posts in two days on front page. Nice one miducks.
Fausto67
For the cost of that cake, they could’ve gone to Lowe’s and got a bag of asphalt and fixed it themselves.
ThatsNoMoonThatsAGalaxy
Yes, but they couldn’t afford to have the city surveyor and his six assistants come out and examine it, write a report regarding the nature—
ThatsNoMoonThatsAGalaxy
Of the pothole, call their estimate guy, get an estimated cost for repair, organized a repair team, shut down traffic, had the site cleaned—
ThatsNoMoonThatsAGalaxy
, prepped, and re-surveyed, had it filled, tamped, and re-re-surveyed, then opened back up. Sadly, cities don’t just hire a guy with a bag—
ThatsNoMoonThatsAGalaxy
Of asphalt.
KRicci
I'd just do it myself in the middle of the night. "No officer we don't know who fixed the pothole"
b1ohazard777
2 years old? I'd hit it.
sortbynewanddownvotedegenerates
I never used to care about potholes until I started driving a car as opposed to a truck. What used to be minor is now a jarring thud
MakingCouchMuffins
Man. I wish that was the potholes we have. Doubt I’d know I hit it
NeverEnoughPuppyLove
Friend here in northern California broke her axle in a goat sized pothole.
BC2k2
I live in MO, you should see the Potholes on the Off-ramp where 7 meets I-49 at Harrisonville. There was a series of car-eaters!

West Virginia?

Roadworkers in Michigan are like
Myowngrampa
My road got paved in December and we already have a pothole that is literally (serious literally, 4 inches deep and about 2 feet long)
Myowngrampa
Why did I use brackets?
Lovethesmelloftoastedsourdoughbread
Because they're free.
CastorTroy990
I suppose our councils have a lot less square mileage to cover, hence the scarcity of potholes, hence the funny responses from taxpayers
mugglessuck
The street to my parents is more pothole than pavement. Sometimes I’m afraid I’ll just get lost in one.
Snooj
No one in my state would complain about a pothole that tiny and I feel weird even calling it a pothole.
JGsK
Yea down here in Nola potholes are monsters
ChihuahuaCommander
Used to live in Lakeview - I have spidey-sense for potholes now.
McSwansonDingleBalls
Pretty sure New Orleans beats all for the amount of totally fucked roads
RussianJudge
Come to Detroit
McSwansonDingleBalls
I knew Detroit would find this comment
TresusIbor
West Virginian here. Our roads are fucked.
IsTheDystopiaHereYet
Someone threw a 5 gal. bucket in a pothole in Oak Hill.

Are you from Michigan too???
JuxtaHip
They are killer this year.
DahPrincess
Pure Michigan
MXluver
*Pure potholes*
tggbvcxzsxv
I popped a tire and bent a rim in same week in Detroit.
TheLastBattlestar
I like how it's a defining feature of our state. Like you know when you've transitioned from Indiana to Mi by sound and feel alone.
ChimeraOfFury
Ohio here. There are potholes big enough to eat my car. And the freeze-thaw-freeze continues.
LordCommanderoftheNightsWatch
You've clearly never been to Livonia or Hamtramck if you think that's the worst.
balencedrago
Oh man fuck ohio. Im in columbus rn. The potholes that manage to make their way onto a highway astound me.
jackKinkopf
From Cleveland....can confirm
MandalorianMerc13
In England they drive on the left of the road. In Oklahoma we drive on WHAT’S left of the road.
EatsBees
Oklahoma and the GODDAMN potholes. I hated that so much. It's a huge reason why I left
asm80dfa8sdfj
Does the new place actually have fewer potholes?
EatsBees
Surprisingly, yes
asm80dfa8sdfj
So about your username. Did you start eating bees because you felt lonely without the potholes? Like a masochistic longing for annoyance?
DOWNVOTEALLEMOJIS
This.
bloxcox
Yeah I grew up in southeastern Oklahoma and you'd be lucky if a road had gravel.
DallinDalgleish
In Canada there is no road
CrazyCarretta
We're having a rough time in Pittsburgh! https://i.redd.it/ep7vpqgwzsg01.jpg
NapAllDayPartyNever
i know! 2 lane roads become 1 lane when you try dodging. im not driving Lebanon church rd til spring
Deminos
Yeah how about back roads of cranberry, you can almost see dirt through some of the potholes
ShayneWarner
Try driving down my "road" then. It's literally unpaved. It stops idiots from nearly killing everyone by speeding though, so it's worth it.
IAmRandyButternubs
Forbes is a freaking mess.
YesMrScorpion
I was there last week and hole-y hell
IAmAHollow
primetime43
That’s a water line break, not just a pothole
IAmAHollow
No, it is actually just a pothole haha. Not the only one either, Montreal is ranked #1 worst in the world.
PitWolf87
Maybe in the first world countries. But you should check out eastern EU as a whole.
ThatGirlWithTheStuff
Fucking how.
Assfullofbread
I was going to comment that it looked like Montreal, driving down Pie IX every day is killing my truck
warderbob
Going down Penn Ave last night my car....fell....into a trench I think. Front bumper almost came off.
CreigerRykov
You should see what 80 looks like out on the eastern half right now. We're approaching Mad Max.
primetime43
Getting onto the 40th st bridge from LV is a nightmare.
ImAfraidYoureAllPsychosSoIMadeThisAccount
Time for me to start up a suspension shop in Pittsburgh.

Meanwhile war expenditures increase lol. Controversial, but i think having better riads and infrastructure is good for everyone

no he meant RAID to kill insects.
DrFunkenstein57
Ha! Come to Michigan. There’s potholes here that lead to caverns...
anomerica
True, I take a pothole to work.
RuggedJosh
I drive across the Ohio/Michigan border all the time. Michigan is instant increase in road noise due to shit roads.
PPPMissPrissyPants
MI native that lived in OH for 6 years, we called it the Oregon trail every time we crossed back into MI to go home.
GiantDad420
I swear we don't even have paved roads, it's all cracks and potholes.
cheeseguy3412
I tripped on a pothole once near city hall, faceplanted, broke my nose. I told no one, it had been there for years, it was fixed in 8 hours
cheeseguy3412
Hadn't even thought of sueing, but its probably the fear of it that got them off their asses.
gatharen
As a former resident of ironwood I can confirm this.
5NoteHalf
You got us beat, but here in Ohio we have a road with 2 lanes (going one way). People only USE one. The other one looks like a crater field
Ikwilstroopwaffels
Some roads in Northeast Ohio especially look like artillery ranges, indeed.
Seinfeldgifssometimes
Michigan is the worst with potholes. It's like they see them and just ignore them for 10 years while the holes takes over the state
izoli413365
Man I did a job in Saginaw, MI and it was the fucking worst. I was so glad to get out of that shitty place.
ihateeggs
So far this winter we’ve had two flat tires and two broken windshields. And that’s with trying the alternate routes after the first two
Seinfeldgifssometimes
Where in Michigan are you?
meeewww
holy fucking shit. I thought Louisiana was bad, but I have actually heard that Ohio is worse (than Louisiana)
sovietunionball
Come to Romania. We have roads made of potholes
DenaliRaven
is romania a safe place to visit? looks like a beautiful place.
karlmalowned
I went to bucharest in the summer, going there again in April. I've heard to stay away from Farentari, but yeah definitely safe.
sovietunionball
Yea... Ferentari is the biggest ghetto in Romania if I am right
DenaliRaven
awesome. i was thinking i'd visit Bucharest if nothing else.
karlmalowned
Yeah a lot of people speak English too. You can head up to Brasov for a change of pace - Dracula's castle, black church.. some cool stuff
PitWolf87
Yeah its safe better then Ukraine and Detroit but worse then lets say... Western Europe.
CamelSpotter
There was once a pothole near my theater's parking lot that was deep enough to fuck up the lip of a car if it hangs low enough.
inneedofadult
I had one just like that! I named him Senor Pothõle
cc90
From Michigan, can confirm
evilpsych
You mean Texas right?
izoli413365
West Texas is bad, but Michigan is worse.
AhelpingOfRumHam
emkev
You guys don't even get the freeze-thaw cycle. That will fuck up your roads.
evilpsych
Where exactly in Texas have you been? We get plenty.
emkev
*Laughs in Minnesotan* OK, bud. Yea. 'Plenty'
evilpsych
Been to west Texas lately or the panhandle in January?
MrPeterCapaldi
They should do what Wanksy did and start spray painting penises around the potholes. City will fix it to cover them up.
MOTHERFUCKINGLUCIFERMORNINGSTAR
They'll just put sealer over it to cover it and ignore it again
KnifeKnut
Which is better than nothing.
MOTHERFUCKINGLUCIFERMORNINGSTAR
It practically is nothing. The sealer is to cover up the dicks. Doesn't do anything to fill a pothole or cracks
KnifeKnut
Agreed that it is far from adequate, but the sealer reduces the amount of water infiltrating into the pavement.
RickCaptain
Oh boy!! Me first!
LtColonelSmythe
Use fluorescent paint. Shows up better so the council can see it.
AnOkUsernameIGuess
I work for the DOT and no lie had someone paint a goober in the road that was so big we used 10 gallons of black paint to cover it.
SkeletonsNeedLoveToo
whats a goober?
JonPoncho
AnOkUsernameIGuess
Its a penis
SkeletonsNeedLoveToo
thanks
SkeletonsNeedLoveToo
Okay but wait, does that mean that the goofy goober song is basically just an entire song saying "I'm a silly penis."
SirTinyPenis
but still didnt fix the hole?
AnOkUsernameIGuess
There was no hole they just painted a giant goober.
