i saw the depressingly small jungle gym box thing standing while eating outside at the local burger king and it got me sad. they used to be much larger, with bridges and such and they used to have these sometimes sprawling, large indoor ones, which really felt like you were exploring something.

i was at some mcdonalds once which had a race track, like, you could race against other kids and see who would clear the parkour the fastest.

i love seeing these things which were made for kids and you can really feel the adults making the things really meant it. they really wanted to make a fun and interesting experience for the visitors. that’s beautiful in my eyes.

i wish you a wonderful day in which you don’t need to hide yourself.

    Actually, a birthday party where me and my friends rent out one of these (but like one that is also accessible to people who are not small) sounds like a lot of fun. I think adults in jungle gyms is a healthy level of whimsy.
