My sister is an art major at the University of Illinois.  A while back she did a project on the quad allowing people to destroy objects and turned it into art.  It was a smashing success.  She actually got highlighted in the Daily Illini newspaper.  It was pretty cool.

Now there is actually a company that is charging people for exactly that.  At the Smash Shackin San Diego you can choose items from their menu and then take them in to destroy them.  I’m not surprised that, with this economy, people have stress and frustration to work out but you’d think that they might be creative enough to come up with their own junk to break.  I think this may  be the beginning of the end of American prosperity if people can’t even find a free way to break their junk.
