Our Rules:

  1. Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.

  2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.

  3. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

To keep people (see: the homeless) from laying down and sleeping there. Look up hostile architecture/design (also, asshole design) for further examples.

Could also have been a seat for the vertically challenged, like a 6yo.
