You're probably thinking "why in the world would you choose to post this in your passion blog? Isn't there anything better around?!". This week, no, not really. While I could have easily used a picture of something I took a few months back, I want to fill this blog with recent findings of mine. The other things I found this week included squirrels racing each other up and down a tree (have fun taking a picture of that with a cell phone camera) and a girl walking around in shorts and a t-shirt. I was going to ask to get a picture of her, but I realized she was coming back from the gym, which makes it a bit more acceptable (however, there is a kid who wears shorts outside whenever I see him... I'm desperately trying to get a picture of him). Long story short, the penis was a must.
While I realize that a giant snow penis is a bit awkward to write about, I do have a point. Two, actually.
1. There is a group of kindergarteners who daily take a walk through Pollock and therefore walk past that. Daily. So to whoever built this: what if that was your little brother or sister? Would you really want them to have to see this?
2. When did building plain old forts stop being fun? I would have never even had the idea to build something like this. When I encounter snow, I immediately want to get to work on a giant igloo or a snowman. Or just do snow angels until I have snow in the back of my pants. But to each his own.
All I hope is that next time someone builds something like this, it will be somewhere we won't all have to walk past.
I've stopped being surprised by the immaturity that seems to persist into college. I also really don't understand the obsession with drawing or building penises. I've had to stop leaving the marker with my dry-erase board outside of my dorm room because people kept drawing penises on it.
ReplyDeleteHopefully this immaturity will eventually fade, but my hopes aren't high.
hahaha this is hilarious. It just shows that although we are all in college here, a large majority of the people still choose to act like they are five years old. I also love your point about how little kids have to walk by things like that every single day. What would a teacher say if one of the children asked what that was in the snow?!
ReplyDeleteI feel like some people just get more immature the older they are. It's kind of ridiculous, actually. It's one thing to make a giant penis in the snow where college kids who walk by will either laugh or roll their eyes, but when little kids are seeing this, there's something wrong. People just need to think a little bit before they act.
