    Are these the vandals they’re arresting for pouring in corrosive chemicals, walking in the pool, and scraping off the poorly done, poorly conceived paint job?

    I thought brawndo was a mad-magazine-esque pun for kids based off a popular detergent logo from the early 80’s. Never saw idiocracy.

      You have not yet lived until you’ve experienced the critically & audience adored future classic Masterpiece that will be… Ow! My balls!

      However, should you engage, be prepared to get your ‘batin’ interrupted during highlights.

    European here, what is this Brawndo?

    EDIT: Briefly forgot I could google it.

    It’s a fictional energy drink from the movie Idiocracy (which has long been on my to-watch list)

      When that came out, it was a way over the top silly movie.
      Watching that now may prove to be a very different experience.

      That dude in the front is wearing camo overalls. Is he trying to sneak up on the algae? Is he an assassin?

      Dude behind him is wearing dayglow. They are giving mixed signals.

              I was being hopeful :). I don’t know if they’re federal park employees maintaining the memorial or how that works. In any case I try to normalize it where I can.

      If you shock it, that kills the algae, right?

      Then where does it go? There’s physical remnants left behind. That doesn’t just disappear.

      Just like you have to skim a regular pool, I’m sure you want to keep solid waste out of the reflecting pool to keep from overwhelming a filtration system that’s simply not built for the load.

      I assumed it was a generated image.

      At the very least, the water is too green.

      If it happens to be legit, no they’re not scooping algae because they don’t have anything to scoop it into.

      That said, during algal blooms in estuaries et cetera physically removing it is part of the process. If a healthy estuary is free of whatever variety of algae, but it gets infested somehow for example due to fertiliser run off from farms, then stopping the fertiliser may not be enough to solve the problem because the estuary is clogged up with algae.

        I think they are scooping out the dead algae so it isn’t food or doesn’t clog pumps/filters
