Woah! That's crazy! See that's the kind of wierd shit I can get behind, fuck this "Daniel Leibiskind fancy tower for people who wish they were living somewhere else and think being a cow town is a bad thing and don't get that all the people who always lived in and loved downtown are being driven out by increased rent and house prices because of this luxury bullshit" bullshit! Let's put the fucking' parthenon on top of an office building!
