Google Maps is going to re-image your property in a month...

Suppose you find out Google will be updating their image for your area for Google Earth/Google Maps one month from now. It’ll have higher resolution, where one pixel will equal 6 inches of your property.

Now’s your opportunity to say the internet equivalent of “Kilroy was here.”

What would you do, given that amount time?

Well, I’d darn sure spruce up my yard. Maybe plant some flowers in that toilet on the front lawn.

It’s sure to have some great fertilizer.

Get rid of the dead cars and extra refrigerators outside, and fill in the sunken graves.

I’d also buy a can of red paint and put “HI MOM” on the roof.

If I had the time and energy, I think I’d use poster paint to paint a birds-eye view peering into the interior of my house, using the shingles as a pixel grid, making it appear as if my home had no roof.

Of course, I’d add unsettling goings-on in each room, like murdered bodies and lots of blood or something.

Or perhaps try to replicate the board game layout of Clue™, with Colonel Mustard killing Mrs. Peacock with the Candle Stick in the Library. Meanwhile all the other guests are enjoying dinner, but Professer Plum is taking a shit in the bathroom.

I would rent as many exotic animals as I could and stake them out in the yard so as to have nothing but animal backs to see from above. The “street view” ought to be slick as well. Lions, giraffes, camels, wildebeests, gnus, hippos, rhinos, yaks, polar bears, and a few zebras.

Awesomely hilarious.

Just please try to add yourself constructing some sort of Ark in your backyard.

Not quite the same, but this lives about two blocks from my parents house. By not quite the same, I mean it’s fake and looks like that 24/7/365. A Giraffe is a bit out of place in a Wisconsin winter.

That damn thing’s gonna eat all the hastas. Quick, shoot it!

Put a couple of mannequins having sex on the roof.

Or, just have crazy sex on the roof!

The only sensible thing to do is cover our entire 3 acres with pink silk. If it works for Christo…

This.

I vote for this one.

I love it.

• dye your lawn purple.

• paint a forced perspective illusion of a roller coaster weaving in and out of your house and yard.

• Paint this, or this on your roof.

I originally though of Plum masturbating in the bathroom, but then thought, too far?

Work with pyrotechnic professionals and the fire marshal to stage portions of your roof and property to be on fire. Also a stuntman running from the front door, on fire.

I imagine it’d be pretty tough to get a license for that.

Stake a parachute over the yard and paint on it, “IMAGE REMOVED BY WITNESS PROTECTION AGENCY.”

Oh!

Paint <-----With Stupid-----> on my roof.

No tougher than getting an advance warning from Google, I suspect. But I won’t be doing that rental before that advance warning comes.
