SONIC / RUBBISH
We’ve almost certainly done this before, but we think it’s safe to assume that most people who would’ve seen it have either died or moved on, so here it is again.
“I think you’ll agree that this photo – taken in an arcade in Bournemouth – is proof that Sonic will put his name on any old rubbish these days. The arcade on the pier opposite also had a Sonic air-hockey table. I couldn’t take a photo though because some kids were playing on it and I didn’t want to be branded a pedo” – Matt.

F**k me what a dive! Nothing like a ciggy and coke stained capret in a seaside arcade to bring the memories flooding back!
Nice!

What a world do we live in where someone feels more comfortable taking a photo of a grotty bin than children at play?
If I had the time/inclination/£600 to buy photoshop, I’d attempt a high res remake, with the cola bottle being replaced by a PS3. I’d set it as my desktop for a day or two.

Just use a pirated copy like everyone else and tell people you used Gimp instead.

It’s gotten so bad I can’t even play on the swings at 3:30 without being branded ‘It’s that fucking paedo again’.
That seemed funny until the last full stop and I’m too tired to improve it.

I feel Morissey should write a song about this, you know “Abandoned rubbish bin in an arcade desolate; will Sonic make a man out of me yet?” …etc. Should invoke all those feelings of kicking around a crap UK seaside town smoking fags and looking for something fun to do.
