Most of the people who use the bottom playground will think that the world should be made safe for them from cradle to grave. They’ll die the first time they have to actually face a dangerous situation, as they won’t have the experience or the cajones to deal with it…
MD. Well bust my buttons. We’ve a college boy in our midst. Me? I’m kinda like Gus McRae when he told Woodrow Call…..”Just once in my life I’d like the chance to shoot at an educated man”.
There ain’t a lot of fun being had in this thread it seems.
I’m thinking too many of these other folk spent too much time playing on plastic jokes and can’t recognize a metal joke when they see one.
I did the math.
JRCJ,MD + Joke = NothingBurger

I bet none of those 1912 kids worried one bit about diversity, binary gender discrimination, the patriarchy, transfer payments, multiculturalism, poverty (even if they suffered from it), foreign wars, or their retirements.
I wish none of mine (or anyone else’s) did now.

I remember the old fashioned Merry-go-Rounds as a kid.. Push and run as fast as you can.. Nothing to ride on, just jump on the wood…no worries…
Nkit…. that playground is way too hazardous for today’s kids to play in. The train tracks are too close… kids might go onto the tracks…. Harmful dioxins spewing from the diesel locomotives… too much high frequency squealing of the wheels… possible derailment of hazardous materials etc etc.
I demand that the tracks be moved to a safer location….

Most if not all of the people in the top picture are dead. They might still be with us if they had played on the bottom playground.

Don’t be silly.
There will never be dangerous situations again and the stock market will never crash again.
Check your math. If any of those in the upper picture were still alive, he/she would be well over a hundred years old.

Also if you’re gonna be PC go all the way… he/she is gender binary and excludes those on the spectrum.
The proper term is “it” or “those things”.

All in fun brother. Just breakin’ balls.

Uh…, you can still find brand new merry-go-rounds being installed in public playgounds today. My town in NJ has one only a couple of years old.
In the Thunderdome playground, is that a kid falling off on the left side of the photo, near the ladder?
