Day 55: Very rude gnomes
Soooo, speak no evil, see no evil, and give the finger?
I was en route out from the Chester Beatty Library today when I passed by Gallery Number One and spotted these chunks of gnomes at the windows. I had a double take when my assumption of “gnomes reenacting hear/speak/see no evil” turned out to have implants between them who happened to be a little rude.
The gnomes also reminded me of the travelling gnome à la Amélie. You know, the one which was posed at various famous landmarks so photos can be snapped? I think that’s a pretty sweet idea, except it would be hell should one flies low-cost and does not check any luggage in. That gnome can’t be light. However, I must say, if I could find such gnome as a plushy, I probably wouldn’t mind doing my own version of The Adventure of Travelling Gnome. Do you know where I can find one?
Hope would like to ask where he can drop off a resume for you to read? ;)
hope is always around with me, just not on photo much, true… poor guy.
heh, those rude gestures reflect my sentiments exactly, Blanche Neige…
lol… which dwarf would do that?
me want one of those gnomes too…the one with the finger…so i can put on my office desk ;)
hmmm those were too big to post. if i see a baby one next time, hehehe…
i give the finger back to you, naughty gnomes! :)
tut tut, not very ladylike chica ;)
Cool, get me one and I’ll put it on my office desk, face it to whoever that pissed me off ;)
LOL. if i ever see one…
