I feel like I am missing a lot here… I get that the chap has blown the bridge to smithereens in the last picture, but why? What’s the story?

That’s fair, mine is a kind request, not a demand.

I assume bc The Fair Lady told him to. She bewitched him which is why his eyes are all crazed.

That's not London Bridge.

Yeah they actually ripped down the previous London Bridge for some reason and replaced it with this monstrosity which is more associated with the terrorist attack. Tower Bridge just looks better.

London bridge is in Arizona now.

It was sold and transported.

That’s not London Bridge.

Fergie (from The Black Eye Peas) sang a song called "London Bridge".

The lyrics are:
How come every time you come around
My London, London Bridge wanna go down? Like
London, London, London, wanna go down like
London, London, London, be goin' down like

She's actually talking about her panties and not the actual London Bridge.
Do you all understand what the fuck a metaphor is?

Yeah, but she didn't sing it in front of a bridge that wasn't London bridge but that she clearly thought it was.

Admit it, this was just a simple error made out of presumption and ignorance. Weird that you are defending it so hard by making such a stretch.

To be fair, I haven't heard of that song.

My sole intention was to show how shitty London Bridge looks, the comic's bridge reminds me more of Tower Bridge (due to the towers on the bridge).
