It IS art, whatever was intended. Which was probably that a kid dropped their doll and blanket, it got run over and the head went down the sewer, then someone picked them up and put them on the post, out of the way.
(showing picture of the doll to my wife) Me: "Did you see this creepiness?" Her: "Yeah, didn't you see it before?" Me: "Huzzah wuzzah?" Her: "It was lying in the street for days. Someone must have picked it up." Me: "So probably a kid dropped their doll and blanket, it got run over and the head went down the sewer, then someone picked them up and put them on the post, out of the way?" Her: "Yeah, something like that probably." Me: "Oh."
Rating the Marvel villains so far on a scale from Excelsior (good), to No-Prize (could be explained that they’re either good or bad), to Bullpen Floor (bad): Iron Monger: Excelsior Abomination: No-Prize Loki: Excelsior Red Skull: Excelsior Whiplash: Bullpen Floor Justin Hammer: Excelsior Loki again: Excelsior Mandarin: Excelsior Dark Elf what’s-his-name: Bullpen floor Hydra Conspiracy: Excelsior Ronan: Bullpen Floor Nebula: Excelsior Ultron: No-Prize Did I miss anyone?
Has anyone reported a doll missing? Oh, god, where's the head!?!?!?!

The red blanket made me think it was supposed to look like blood, so someone left it there to upset passing motorists.
ReplyDeleteOr the doll represents childhood and the blanket "blood" represents the way imagination is drained from us by corporate America.
ReplyDeleteIt forces you to drive by, and makes you realize that in doing so we are all complicit.
ReplyDeleteIn a way, I put that doll on that post.
