Center of Vladivostok's fountain targeted in another "foam celebration" event
Let the Good Times Roll (Or Not): Foam Parties at Vladivostok Fountains Under Scrutiny
It seems like the bubbly times at Vladivostok's fountains have come with a price tag. As per recent reports from IA PrimaMedia via MUPV "VPEs," one of the city's fountains in the Admiral Fokin area has gone kaput after an illegitimate "foam party."
Year after year, this pattern persists, with residents gleefully hosting these "foam parties," blissfully oblivious to the potential calamities their actions may trigger. Amidst the merriment and carnival atmosphere, these party-goers too often overlook the dire consequences of their wholesome entertainment.
Evgeny Demchenko, the chief mechanic of MUPV "VPEs," wisely noted, "See those sparkling bubbles? They may look inviting, but they're no match for the well-oiled machinery inside our fountains. Pour those detergents in, and you'll be left with a greasy mess that's reminiscent of a car engine gone haywire."
Springtime in Vladivostok isn't just about blooming flowers and cheerful laughter - it's also about safety reminders and respecting our shared spaces.
According to Demchenko, the repercussions of such negligence are far from trivial. Electric motors, the heart of a fountain, stand to bear the brunt of the foamy onslaught. Replacing these puppies ain't your everyday DIY project. And, to clean up the mess, restoring a fountain isn't merely about scrubbing off the soapy suds - it involves a deep and thorough overhaul of the circuitry.
That being said, the residents of Vladivostok need to wise up and practice responsible behavior. While we're all for a good time, ensuring the city's treasure trove of fountains continues to grace our skylines should be our top priority.
The H2O in those fountains serves a purpose other than appeasing one's thirst, so swimming or consuming the water won't end well. As for the electrical voltage coursing through the system, it can be downright lethal, making that wet dance move a major no-no.
So, next time the urge to don a DJ hat and conjure up bubbles storms your thoughts, think twice. Remember, our public spaces are not playgrounds for impromptu foam parties; they're havens we all share and are duty-bound to protect.

In light of the ongoing issues with foam parties at Vladivostok's fountains, perhaps it's time to shift our focus towards a more responsible lifestyle, one that respects the upkeep of our shared home-and-garden spaces like the city's fountains. This spring, let's remember that these public spaces are not intended for home-and-garden parties, but rather for appreciating and preserving the beauty of our lifestyle environment.
