little town of horrors

[lisa_thecat]

There's this tradition in Romania to decorate a park for the winter holidays and call it "children's little town". A sort of amusement park with Christmas lights and all. This used to be a big thing when I was a kid but it seems like every winter the 'little town' set up by the mayor has become more grotesque. And it's not just me growing up and

Frate, da' ce oroare! Credeam ca nu se mai fac orasele ale copiilor. Cel putin, in cartierul unde locuiam in Bucuresti a fost unul inainte de 1989 si l-au desfiintat, pt ca ajunsese o gramada de fieratanii ruginite unde se strangeau boschetarii si beau vodca sau se opreau cate unii si-si faceau nevoile pt ca nu se mai puteau abtine pana sa ajunga acasa la WC-urile proprii.

Toate papusile alea sunt horror, dar papusa cu aripi si scena nativitatii, care nici macar nu e specifica marelui popor credincios, ortodox roman!, sunt cireasa de pe tort. Si pot pune pariu ca pt prostiile alea s-au tocat o gramada de bani. E organizat de primarie?

Oricum, ii deplang pe cei care-si duc copiii acolo. Bietii copii o sa ramana traumatizati pe viata dupa o asa experienta.

Totul s-a deteriorat din ce in ce mai tare. Nu inteleg de ce se mai deranjeaza sa faca oraselul copiilor daca asta e tot ce pot produce. E grotesc. Sinistru. Ingerasul ala este de groaza. Cred ca e o papusa-manechin donat de vreun magazin pentru haine pentru copii. Aripile alea jalnice sunt inimaginabile. Trebuie sa le vezi ca sa crezi. Toate personajele alea jalnice care nu au nici o treaba acolo, Mos Craciunii spanzurati - efectiv traumatizeaza copii. Si partea cea mai amuzanta - parcul era plin de gardieni. Mult mai multi decat vizitatori. Pazeau frumusetile de acolo, probabil.

Nu inteleg de ce mai organizeaza chestia asta cu oraselul copiilor daca nu fac altceva decat sa traumatizeze copiii.

What can I say....you're right :( There is not even one cute or beautiful figure there. Ok, maybe the polar bear.The little angel looks so sad and the Santa in the tree is so sick of his job. Poor guy. I really hope a lot of parents are complaining about that and it will be better next year. Because I really like the idea of that park for the children.

Nothing cute, all sinister. They look worse in the light of the day. I went after dark with purpose.

Honestly, I wouldn't take a six-year-old there, not even to scare them.

[lisa_thecat]

It's a cruel and unusual punishment for the poor kids!

[mutter12]

real scary stuff....What is the purpose....Chase kids away?? Sure that it works

[lisa_thecat]

The kids I saw were totally confused, no scared. They couldn't understand what those horrible things were. And why their parents insisted on taking their picture with them.

That. Is scary. Funny, but in a scary way . . .

I tried to make it funny, but it's really sad...
