  1. Reminds me of the story posted on here with a couple having sex violently by a fence only bc it was an electric fence

  2. This seems familiar…I remember this sign and reading an explanation…was it here on B&P?

    I think I’ll turn this over to Mike “the Memory” Firesmith.

  3. Not tonight. I’m having prblems understanding commetns by The Girl, but then again, most comments by most girls get past me.

    But a lube fence?

    wtf?

  4. Its a fence beside a railway. Mu was right – its to discourage people from climbing the fence and crossing the tracks. Its the economical solution — easier to have one guy apply grease to a fence than to have a hazmat team extract someone’s former parts from the undercarriage of an engine. People don’t seem to understand that trains don’t stop on a dime nor are they capable of swerving to avoid something wandering on the tracks. Sadly, time has proven that a ungreased fence is not a deterrent and Darwin wins.

  5. At a famous theater in Los Angeles, people would steal light bulbs. The fixtures were historic-couldn’t be modified legally. We put black grease on the bulbs. Some were unscrewed a little ways but not removed.

  6. The warning is there so people won’t touch it and get their hands and clothes dirty! It’s not to keep people from trying!

    Duhh!

  7. I’ve see lubricated barbed wire on the top of fences. It’s there so you’ll slip and cut yourself if you try to climb it. Which, legally, is a trap and usually illegal. A sign saying it’s lubed probably isn’t illegal.
