You seem very mature for a teen

I'm not really bothered.

Finally someone found a redeeming quality to that hideous thing. It can be used as a solar oven. Hopefully it will melt its own foundations.

Hmm. I don't think it's that bad looking. At least it's not boring looking. Stupid designers, though.

I was overstating my dislike for the building, as I do with certain types of palm trees. Though I think it's my least preferred of the highrises currently under construction in London. Btw I wonder what will they do to these 3 parking lots. I guess building a hot dog/bbq stand? No need for a lighter.

Here's a streetview of the site from a year ago:

https://maps.google.com/maps?q=loc:5...4.38,,0,-20.36

I wonder what angle the sun was at when it created a solar oven? And also, where are the parking lots? I don't see any surface lots nearby.

I hated it at first, but it's starting to look a lot better now.
