So, probably some of you folks have seen this (because I found it on MetaFilter), but I thought I would put it here because it was just really creepy to me:

What the kids in Russia get to play on.

About the third one down there's sort of a Teletubby-looking thing.  And I can tell you that what's written on its belly in Cyrillic is, in fact, "Po."  So they got that at least partway right.

Harsh weather undoubtedly contributes, but there seems to be plenty of the Tragedy of the Commons evident in those pics.

Acap: I was thirsty one day and I sat down. A year later, Jack's was built around me and thirst is a recurring thing.

The creepy old man seems inappropriated for the park, especially with his legs so splayed.

I'll confess: I would have loved these playgrounds as a kid. Back when I had an overactive imagination, I pretty much pictured all my playgrounds as weird fantasy forests or strange post-apocalyptic societies or Ice Planet Alpha and such anyway, so this could only have helped.

The image of Lucifer holding his **** in a box is priceless. He has a coy expression on his face.
