Driving through Inglewood this morning, I saw this.. Another view. I had to stop and take a picture.
I must emphasize that this is life size and in someone’s front yard in an otherwise normal neighborhood.
I have…no words.
Sweet! Bet that pisses off the neighbors a treat!
Safe bet that Young Earth Creationists live there.
Awesome.
Boom, boom, acka-lacka lacka boom!
Boom, boom, acka-lacka boom boom…
You know, I’m going to a piano bar tonight, and they play that song every time I go there. I think I’m immune to it, but you’re still a bastard for trying to inflict it upon these other poor souls.
OK, we have a baby Buddhist monk riding a dinosaur. That is truly a WTF. 
Or an ex-minigolf employee.
Are you saying that if you had statues of a kid and a dinosaur, you wouldn’t pose them like that?
Or, an ex-Dinosaur World employee?..
Wow. Life size dinosaurs. Do they move around?
The kid statue looks like a replica of Le Pisseur (sp?) from Brussels. In which case, he’d be pissing on the back of the dino’s head.
Am I seeing things or does that baby have his right hand down his pants?
A masturbating baby Buddhist monk riding a dinosaur.
That definitely beats the 10-foot tall “Kung-Fu Panda” figure that I saw for a while on someone’s front lawn.
I do what I can.
They actually play that song on a regular basis?
Maybe not quite as weird, but it’s in the running.
A couple of years ago, some friends gave us a 5’ long alligator, made out of rebar, made to hold a potted plant on it’s back. My SO looked at it, and decided it made a better Christmas decoration, so he wrapped all the rebar in red rope lights. So we had a 5’ long glowing red alligator. (Which was really cool when it snowed. You got this red glow as it melted it’s way out.)
Last year, another friend decided we needed a 16" long cement gnome, laying on it stomach, reading a book. Well, last week the gator and the gnome had it out, and the gnome lost.
So now, I have a 5’ long glowing red wireform gator, with an 16" long gnome in it’s stomach. It’s kind of too bad that we have a big front yard. Most people probably don’t ever see it. On the other hand, I’m not afraid that it’s going to walk off.
Nah, they hearken back to an earlier age of roadside attractions in that respect. But they’re fairly impressive nonetheless. You wander around the jungle-landscaped gardens, and take pictures of your kids next to the dinosaurs, and read them the educational plaques which they don’t care about except for the names, and then you go back to the gift shop and buy a carload of dinosaur-themed merchandise.
It’s the Baby Jesus riding a Jesus Horse.
Somehow we have to get that thing to chowder’s neighbor. Damn the freight costs! It’d look so cool plopped in the middle of the massed gnomes.
Actually that thing looks like a very weird Dinotopia riff.
There’s a home in Highland Park, NJ with an Easter Island-style head in the yard, but this is way weirder than that.
Can you let me know where that is - I’m from Edison and I’m dying to see it!
Well, Inglewood. California, no less. :rolleyes: What did you expect?
