Pay Up And Sit Down

The idea is good , but not here in Russia, it would simply be carried away : ) And on the other hand ,
Why should people pay for something to sit down to rest , is it any commercial park ?

  3. i wonder how long they stay down...that'd be a nasty surprise

    ReplyDelete
  4. Is it on a timer if so that would suck to be on it when it went back up

    ReplyDelete
  5. put a board over the spikes

    ReplyDelete
  6. it's not a good idea anywhere. i would sit right next to this.

    ReplyDelete
  7. Surely this is a hoax>

    ReplyDelete
  8. And I suppose everyone you know just carries boards around.

  9. Like George Harrison once said, "...if you try to sit, I'll tax your seat."

  10. job tvyodemaj!

    ReplyDelete
  12. Terrible idea

    ReplyDelete
  13. So you sit on your briefcase. When rested, you vandalize the damn bench.

    ReplyDelete
  14. Wait, what happens when your time runs out?!

    ReplyDelete
  15. Sit on the corner of the bench? Place something flat & of a hard nature over the spikes (such as a textbook, board, etc)?

    The only way they could ever possibly make this work is to make it watertight, with no way around it.

    Dumbass Russians.

  16. Ha! that doesnt work on me. I'm a teenager, and as so I rest my ass on the guardrail and my feet on the spikes^^

    ReplyDelete
  17. no to most of you, that isnt what you do, you pay the fucking toll, use your fucking seat, and shut the fuck up

    ReplyDelete
  18. This is an art installation, not a serious idea for benches..
    That's for the people who did not get that.

    ReplyDelete
  19. i bet a masochist had no problem sitting there...

  20. Coming to America soon! Sponsored by Google, Coca-Cola, Pepsi, Pizza Hut, etc.

    None of the profits go to a worthy cause.

  21. Simple.
    Sit on the ground, and admire the work of art.

  22. we have lots of free garden chairs in india...... come take some. lol!

    ReplyDelete
  23. Whoever believes some little spikes in a park bench is "art," you're a fool.

    ReplyDelete
  24. Is there a time limit when the spikes will pop back out and spike the person in the ass?

    ReplyDelete
  25. Have to say, in a park with a good possibility of kids running about that looks awfully safe.

    ReplyDelete
  26. Great, as if the homeless didn't have it hard enough already.

    ReplyDelete
  27. In Soviet Russia, bench pokes on *you*...

    ReplyDelete
  28. ill take a garden chair

  29. I thought this must have been a hoax.. but! a little googling let me to find out its serious! i find it highly amusing !
    check out the vid http://www.treehugger.com/files/2010/07/pay-and-sit-park-bench-libertarian-dream.php
    you can sit for about a minute then you must go hahaha
    highly amusing, i would get my blanket and sit on the grass watching ppl pay to sit for a minute hahaha brilliant!!

    ReplyDelete
  30. agreed, this is nothing close to art. this is a fat waste of time, both on the part of the person that constructed it, and on the part of every single person who's had a few minutes taken away from their life viewing it. Thank you internet, that's a little bit of my life i'll never get back.

  31. Take a cushion. Problem solved.

    ReplyDelete
  32. what a load of crap!!!!!

    ReplyDelete
  33. Pfft. Your time isn't worth crap.

    ReplyDelete
  34. This is ridiculous. I would personally wait till its dark and go ahead and smash it with a sledgehammer, its just and insult. Also pay toilets are devices of cruelty, but this really takes it to another level.

    ReplyDelete
  35. It's to keep the bums from sleeping on the bench.

    ReplyDelete
  36. Pay toilets, pay benches, pay parking, pay everything. Wherever did people get the idea life should be free. Unsafe for the kiddies running around, then stop letting them run around annoying everyone. Keep the brats under control.
    Its as much art as a bunch of colored pigments applied to a surface is, or chipping away at a perfectly good stone to make it look like on of us. Come to think of it it is a waste of time, like all art.

  37. a law suit waiting to happen...

    ReplyDelete
  38. I would take a large crap on that thing and make sure to get some of it in the change area so they have a nice gift waiting for them when they come to collect the money.

  40. This is an art piece... it's not serious nor is it meant to be.

    ReplyDelete
  41. It's an art piece by Designer Fabian Brunsing

    ReplyDelete
  42. Hilarious. Why is everyone so up in arms saying they're going to vandalise it? It's a piece of art. Even if it was serious no one said you had to sit on it. If someone's willing to pay the toll so be it if you don't wanna sit somewhere else you chincy bastards.

    ReplyDelete
  43. If it's real, which I doubt. Then I'd assume it wouldn't be cost effective. Surely the cost of the bench and paying someone to collect the money would defeat the point of it?

    ReplyDelete
  44. i helped install this and it was my idea, it was not meant to be a piece of art i just wanted to piss some people off after a jog

    ReplyDelete
  45. Now hobbos cant sleep on parks

    ReplyDelete
  46. Just sit on the grass, fuck that shit

    ReplyDelete
  47. It amazes me... the amount of trolls that linger on websites like this.

    Clever idea. :)

    ReplyDelete
  48. For all those people wondering what happens when the timer runs out, it beeps about 10 seconds before the spikes go back up. That gives you enough time to pick up all your stuff and get up.

    ReplyDelete
  49. Anyone who says its not art is fucking stupid. Its supposed to make you think; "Yeah, those fuckers, what'll they charge us for next!?" I mean, how could you not get that?

    ReplyDelete
  50. It's probably a sculpture and if it's not...im sure it's to deter the homeless from sleeping in the park.

    ReplyDelete
  51. ALWAYS I WANNA BE WITH YOU AND MAKE BELIEVE WITH YOU AND LIVE IN HARMONY HARMONY OH LOVE~

  52. In mother Russia bench sits on you...

    ReplyDelete
  53. What an asinine way to take that much more money out of people's pockets. As a piece of art, this is a waste of time and resources at best. As a serious application, it seems like yet another contraption based on taking money out of your pocket, and in turn conditioning you for a life of work with no rest. This is a small start to a bigger picture. You're only allowed to sit for a minute, and then you are forced to either pay more for a longer rest, or get up and go back to work.

    Stupid. Why don't you people apply this kind of creativity to HELP, not HINDER mankind?

    ReplyDelete
  54. who ever thought this was a good idea.... YOU ARE A FUCKING IDIOT... fuck you

    ReplyDelete
  55. WTF? I would just sit on the ground. Jesus....and I thought America was bad...

    ReplyDelete
  56. in Soviet Russia chair sit on you

    ReplyDelete
  57. bring a plank. problem solved.

    ReplyDelete
  58. It is art....

    But if it was for real, I'd recycle.

    I'd recycle the coins from the coin box into my own pocket, I'd recycle the coin box into my own limited edition letter box, I'd recycle the spikes for something as yet to be determined, and I'd recycle the seat for use in my own yard...

    ReplyDelete
  59. These spikes are to keep homeless people from sleeping on the bench.
    Welcome to a human world...

    ReplyDelete
  60. This is so the homeless can't sleep on them, it's a cold, mean and uncaring thing to do to a human being.
