I’m outraged! More of my tax dollars going to support so-called “art”! If it didn’t look so cool, I’d be even more outraged!
That is so cool!
Yeah I’m outraged too:
I don’t just want to touch them, I want to ride on them and fly off into the sky on them!
Bummer… “don’t touch them… they’re art… really delicate…”
