Someone start selling t-shirts and marketing this trend via YouTube. And on a day that yet another water main breaks, it's worth pointing out this comment left on the site from yesterday: "Nothing wrong with the damn water lines. I worked on those lines.

Meanwhile, a reader sent in this photo on Monday, taken on Sunset in Bel-Air. The LAFD had info on an incident involving a "sheared hydrant" on Sunset, but no other information could be found.
