New Zealand Penis Shaped Crop Circles Immortalized on Google Earth



CROP circles might be known for their beauty and paranormal allure, but the giant phalluses etched into the field of a New Zealand high school hold no such mystique. Fairfield College, in the North Island town of Hamilton, has been snapped by satellite cameras with six huge penises burnt into the grass. "At first I thought it was a large piece of artwork," he said of the shot, which shows cartoon-like phalluses of various sizes, some several metres across.  It happened over a weekend but it wasn't until the grass died off bit by bit that phallic symbols started to pop up around the school grounds. Every week another crude image revealed itself, much to the dismay of staff. "There's not really much we could do about it," he told the newspaper. "The caretaker took some more weedkiller and tried to camouflage it a bit."  Kiwis however, thought the prank was hilarious, with 70 adding mostly encouraging comments to the online story, like "Freakin brilliant!!! Love it!!! Classic piece of adolescent artwork." One gave the artists an A+, top marks for cunning, planning, chemistry and geometry, while another said their anatomy detailing left a lot to be desired.

After bringing you one amazing offering the internet has, I bring you a second one.  This just doesn't make the news without Google Earth.  Without the technology of the internet these fun-loving Kiwi's immortal prank would have been...well mortal. Probably would have had to go up to the roof to see it and the amazement would have lasted all  but two weeks. 

Kiwi's or New Zealanders, or whatever they like to be called are quickly becoming my favorite nation of people.  Long overshadowed by their awesome Australian cousins, the Kiwi's have been coming on strong.  They keep this up they may just become the favorites for my country of adoption when I inevitably flee this country.  

PS: I wonder what the caretaker did to camouflage a quarter mile long cock?  Like you can't just fill it in that just makes if bolder.  Did he give it wings? Like some kind of mythical cock-beast? Draw flowers around it? What did he do? Terrible job by the reporter right there, that's a follow up question you have to ask.
