The light pole…with 40 signs on it

The Super Fickle Pickle is coming to a neighborhood near you! She will be putting up annoying parking restriction signs on your street. The more she likes you, the more parking restriction signs you get. And, if you don’t adhere to the restrictions on the signs, the Super Fickle will be there to give you a stiff ticket. After all, it’s hard to finance a blog as a pickle, especially if you are super and fickle.

The Super Fickle Pickle did a pilot program in West Hollywood, California. In one neighborhood, she put 5 signs up on one light pole.

Sign one read: no parking any time between 12-3 on the second Thursday of every other month.

Sign two read: No parking on Friday between 7 and 10 unless there’s a parade or a sporting event (parade floats and pink scooters are exempt).

Sign three read: No cars over 8 tons or under 7 tons can park on the street all day Tuesdays unless their axles are imported from China (Tonka trucks are exempt).

Sign four read: No parking on cloudy days or days in which there is more than 51% cloud cover (rainy days exempt).

And finally, sign five read: No parking unless your car has been washed within the last 2 days.

With these signs, I’m sure to make a barrel of money dishing out tickets and accepted large bribes. Life will be great, wonderful and grand. And maybe, the Super Fickle Pickle will live like a pickle should, rich and privileged but still super and fickle.
