What's the street value of Lego?

So, no bare feet in that area.

someone killed mario!!

It would be odd to get home and find Lego bricks stuck in the tread of your tires, or frozen in the pack of your wheel well. Little Lego Luke on Hoth?

Derek Force: nice subby..  could have also used the 'damages estimated in the billions of dollars' meme considering the price of legos these days.

You suggest substituting an original and clever headline with an old and busted meme? How about... no?

Nice, subby.

Yes, this is horrible, this idea.

don't walk barefoot on that road anytime soon

Wanted for questioning.

Weeners in TFA:

Tiffany Lantz just wait a few years and you will be able to print these on a 3D printer. Right now you can pick a cheap one up for about $1000. A good one would cost around $3200.

I like the idea of 3D printing as much as anyone, but people need to get a grip on reality.  Yeah, I'm gonna spend $3000 or even $1000 on a printer so I can print out individual legos out of soft plastic at $20 a piece.  Makes total sense.

It looks like that road is...

(removes sunglasses)

...blocked.

Ugh.  Between this and today's xkcd, I'm all punned out before 9am.

The people at Lego are pretty cool, I bet if the mother sent this story to their corporate headquarters they'd probably replace a shait load of them for free.

That was excellent, subby.  I laughed myself silly before even opening the article or thread.
Bravo!

Sybarite: "Those legos belonged to my 11 yr old son they where in totes strapped to the top of the durango they fell off strap came loose he cried it seemed like forever but I tried to recover as many as I could cause I don't have the money to buy him anymore."

I certainly hope your son has better teachers than you apparently did.

There's nothing wrong with how she writes she's probably just a stream of consciousness poet I bet you didn't think of that before condescending to her oh who am I kidding they're going to freaking Facebook to get a statement maybe they could have at least paraphrased instead of copy-pasting that mess.

Another incident like this and they'll be taking back Lego's Nobel Piece-by-Piece Award.

First you get the Legos, then you get the power, then you get the women...





/Hot like a foot that found a Lego in the dark...

I see someone also was on the reddit thread....

/still laughed.

I'd help em clean it up, that's like 8 grand worth of lego on the road.

I have no comment on the story; I am just here to pat subby on the back for a great headline.

I figured someone would beat me to that.

nice headline...and new aged version of a speed trap.

i can imagine those chevron cars yelling profanities as they drive over the.

*golf clap to subby*

Just like any home that's ever had lego in it they'll never find them all.  A decade from now they'll still find flat-top pieces under the guardrail.

This wouldn't be the day for a nice barefoot walk.

Lego on the floor
Motherfarking shiat dammit
Ow fark shiat shiat shiat

From the article:

As hazardous as Legos are to unshod humans, they also pose a potential risk to vehicles. They may not be able to puncture a tire, but I imagine Legos could be pretty slippery, especially in the damp, cold conditions at the time. The only thing worse than a bunch of loose Legos on an interstate would be a bunch of wet, half-frozen loose Legos.

I don't know about Legos in West Virginia, but around these parts they don't get wet and cold temperatures don't do a whole lot.  Traction issues should attributed to the fact that the legos are a loose granular covering on the highway, somewhat akin to loose gravel.  Unless of course you're a writer who likes to guess facts, in which case this was spot on.

Yes, good work subby.

A one lane shutdown!!! OMFG! Oh, the humanity of it all...

My son somehow recieved the "invisible to children's eyes" set of legos. He swear's the pieces are picked up and then right in the middle of the hardwood floor I step on the piece with sharpest corners. They're like ninja legos. They go invisible when orders are out to be picked up.

/note to mom: Do not leave the legos on the top of the roof! The kid is 11? He can hold them.

I've been looking for that piece for ages!

That's like $5,000,000 in legos.
