When I was about nine or ten, I went to Kraynacks in Hermatige, Pennsylvania, for their Christmas display. They had a giant, life size Goofy playing the piano. I still see that thing when I close my eyes at night.

Most of them have arms and legs and stuff but not always in the usual place.

I'm not sure they are meant to be played with. Hans Bellmer is generally regarded as a Surrealist and Surrealists often have their own agenda.

Word.

The sad part about this cover is that I actually like Disturbed, and like some of the covers they've done over the years.  But, I find their version of Sound of Silence to be horrid.

While the cover has gradually grown on me and I can appreciate it more, it doesn't hold a candle to the original

Ronald McDonald.
Even more, that Burger King mascot. I'm so glad that didn't exist when I was a child.

When I was a kid I had recurring nightmares about Ronald McDonald. If The Burger King had existed, that video would have been my dreams every night.

How about some of the McDonald's friends?  Like the Fry Guys, the little McNuggets, Grimace, the Hamburglar, and Mayor McCheese?

Not sure why, but none of those guys ever really bugged me. The big purple one (Grimace?) I found a little repulsive, but I kind of liked the Hamburglar and Mayor McCheese. Don't really remember the Fry Guys or the little McNuggets. I think it's Ronald's painted-on smile and crazy eyes that disturbed me.

It's a horror spoof using the creepy Burger King mascot.  It's not a real.ad, but from a parody show called Robot Chicken.

"creepy" Burger King mascot - ha! that's funny. That mascot is very typical king with crown - what's creepy about typical king with crown? Either you or Emily, post explanation. :police:

Well, isn't every picture frozen, technically? Besides, it isn't creepy anyway. It's just banal king with crown. At least he smiles, not frown.

I got mine in 2011 from Ohio and the rust on the undercarriage got too much to handle. I sold it for $500 to a jeep restoration center and took my sister's old Honda Accord.

10 years ago when I was living with my roommate in our postage stamp sized apartment (not actually relevant, just setting the scene) I got up one dark morning to get ready for work and in doing so made a bowl of instant oatmeal by the dim light of the streetlamp that filtered through the window, then took the oatmeal back to my room, switched on the light and ate a portion of it before looking into my bowl and finding it filled with little wormies. Thinking I maybe was having a nightmare, I went into the kitchen and turned on the light to see a couple of wormies crawling on the counter. Promptly hyperventilated, vomited and rocked myself in a corner because I already had bug and worm issues when this happened. I am still disturbed by oatmeal to this day.
