Broken: O' Neill building sign
Jonathan Harford sends in this picture of the O' Neill building at the intersection of 6th Ave. and 22nd St. in New York City:
There is something about the O'Neill building that makes me feel a little queasy.
Why didn't they write it as "TheONeillBuilding.com"?
Then again, maybe they're just happy to have people talk about it.
[It's not just any ill building, it's the one ill building! -mh]
I love the smell of carbon monoxide in the morning! Oh wait, CO is odorless.
I love the smell of asbestos is the morning!
Oh wait, that is odorless also.
Anyway, I'll probably be too ill to be able to smell anything in the morning.
broken like the websites such as therapistfinder.com
expertsexchange.com
too bad thisisbroken.com isn't like that
Forget about how ill the building is.
The guy in the picture has a head almost the size of a bus window.
That can't be good for a person!!!
Sick Building Syndrome is very real. In the spirit of full disclosure, the real estate company is just letting you know in advance of the problem.
Makes me want to rename my website to something with a built-in double entendre.
Reminds me of those SNL skits with Darryl Hammond as Sean Connery on Jeopardy. "I'll take The Penis Mightier for $200 Alex!"
"If you have to ask, you can't afford it."
It's in the expensive part of Chelsea (very close to where I used to work). My guess would be that places start at $3k/month.
My favorite broken URL has to be bbsexpress.com.
There is something called Sick Building Syndrome, putatively caused by the current trend for hermetically sealed buildings and the outgassing of sundry paints, plastics, and glues.
Newly installed carpet can be particularly nasty.
