Most of the responses to the original story on Stuff.co.nz [http://www.stuff.co.nz/technology/5114020/Penis-prank-caught-by-Google-satellite] expressed amusement over the stunt, although one commenter, Dave Dickson, claimed to be dismayed by "the twisted minds of today's youth, brought up on a heavy diet of hardcore pornography." Netsafe Executive Director Martin Cocker also warned that quests for online infamy sometimes have a tendency to backfire because "things hang around a lot longer on the web."

In all honesty, as much as this sounds like me trying to ruin everyone's fun, it's seriously just simply vandalism... this is really no different than someone drawing a dick on the side of a train car with spray paint, just bigger and probably cost the school a lot more money trying to get rid of this rather than cleaning off paint. I really don't think this is cool at all.
And everyone talking like people shouldn't be offended by this... I want you to walk around outside bottomless and see how far you get. If you really think the human body is something to be celebrated, why don't you just go ahead and celebrate a bit?
EDIT: Also, I'm pretty sure that news article is fake. I searched on Fairfield's website for Gerhard van Dyk and found nothing.
EDIT 2: And it's also a Catholic university, which makes it kind of sad to see that a student would do something like this.
Of course it's vandalism - just because we're all having a chuckle it doesn't mean that we don't think the detentions aren't well-deserved.ProfessorLayton said:And everyone talking like people shouldn't be offended by this...

Bet I know why they did it.Andy Chalk said:Acting principal Gerhard van Dyk said the prank was perpetrated over a weekend so by the time the caretaker discovered the weed-killer wilsons it was too late to do anything about it. He used more of the stuff to try to camouflage the offending images and eventually all the grass was killed, but because of the delay it took months before the overgrown yard dongs disappeared completely.
