Sunday's parting shots

A big weekend for discarded furniture with the end-of-the-month move ins and move outs... the above photo was spotted on Ninth Street (thank you Steven!)... and below on 11th Street (thank you Carol from East 5th Street!)
... and Ninth Street at Second Avenue (thank you Doug!) ...

    Discarded furniture, sometimes good items, are repurposed by those who are less fortunate and this guy thinks he's creating art! More like vanity and conceit than anything close to art.

    So, further proof of idiocy and jackassery: taggin done by someone whose juvenile mind can't fathom the concept that one MIGHT kindly leave furniture that's still in decent condition alone, so that someone who really needs that furniture might benefit.

    THIS is how you know the way civilization is going, and it's not looking good at the moment. People need to HELP other people, not vandalize everything they see.

    PS: It would have been nice if the original owners of these pieces of furniture had bothered to offer them on Freecycle or similar.

    Man, it's too bad this guy tagged this furniture. It is all usable and someone would have taken it.

    This would have been perfect for the Instagram @stoopingeastvillage account, someone could have used these before Spray Can Sam got to them first.

    I'd sleep on the floor before I'd drag a bedbug-infested sofa up five flights—with landings—up to my sixth-floor penthouse suite!
