Just when you thought you've seen EVEYTHING!....

[venray]

Just when you thought you've seen EVERYTHING!....

Along comes the colossal colon....you heard me....the colossal colon...a 40' replica of the human colon complete with polyps, cancer, and MORE...

It was displayed at the mall I work in for 4 days.....the kids even got to crawl through......

(yup..that is mascot # 1 "Polyp Man".... 😕 )

 

[venray]

But WAIT!! There's more....

More? how could there be more you say.......

Meet.......................................

"ENEMAN!!!!!!!!!!!!! "

Yup mascot # 2 was "Eneman" (complete with cape....)


But as if that wasnt enough, they gave out little plush "enemen" to all who crawled through this thing.....

Imagine if you will..hundreds of kids running through the mall with little toy enemas.....and they wonder why we are screwed up as adults.........

 

[StockedAndGagged]

And I thought I was the only person who thought the giant colon was strange when I wandered through last week.

Children were playing in a colon. Who thought that was a good idea?

Who wants to crawl through a colon?

And was that a pollup? Jesus!

Though Ray; dont know if you heard; next week they're putting in a urethra that's also a water slide.

Heaven help the good people of CT.

Was this done in conjunction with a awareness for colon cancer? I think the message is an important one, as is any kind of cancer awareness, but they could have come up with something alot less tacky. Geeesh.

 

[venray]

Yeah SB..It was indeed done for all the right reasons but done one in totally the wrong way...

Parents were leaving little "enemen" all over my store when they found out what their kids were playing with....

The information handed out was good and very useful, but definitely done in a very tacky way.......

I told my mom this would happen if she didn't change her diet and stop with all the laxatives.

 

[Mitchell]

Ack, Ray. I echo Sultry's thoughts. Important message, but tactless presentation on the part of whoever was responsible for that display. Yikes!

Consider the poor starving actor desperate enough to take a gig as a polyp in a colon. 😛 😛

 

[thetickleking]

wow, that's hard to digest

 

[TklDuo-Ann]

I STILL think whoever thought up this method of presentation was full of shit. Apparently, thiers wasn't working very well. 😱

[Dave2112]

Ok, you know what would have been really funny? Go over the mall pet-store, come back with a tank full of gerbils and let the little bastards run through the tunnel. Sit back and see who gets it.

Or go get a giant stuffed rodent and run through the tunnel with it....

Or, or.....

Ok, I'm done.

 

[Dave2112]

Ok, I'm not done....

My thoughts are on the guys in the Eniman and PolypMan suits. I mean, how desperate for a job do you have to be? Come on, there's a food court in the mall, and at least at BK you get all the fries you can chug...and thier uniforms don't bear a striking resemblance to a butt-onion.

Can you imagine these kids writing home?
Dear Mom,
Today I got to be the enema! Bob's being such a bitch about always getting the cool costume...so today I got up super early and beat him to the mall.

These are dudes that even the guys on "Beauty and the Geek" won't fess up to hanging around with.

I am NOT Al Bundy!

HELL NO! I'm Al Bundy!

Actually I just knew we were headed for something like this when Mr. Hanky became popular as The Christmas Pooh on South Park. Hi-i-dy Ho!

In a word........

Ewwwwwwwwww!!!

 

[the_Baron]

i can hear michael jackson's retort now:

"...no, you're being ignorant.....its not sexual...a colon is a beautiful thing.....we cuddle and pick off polyps...."

 

[He-Man]

Consider the poor starving actor desperate enough to take a gig as a polyp in a colon. 😛 😛

What about Eneman? With that kinda name, just imagine the jokes he'd have to put up with. lol

 

[Oddjob0226]

So which character do you play, Ven?

 

[kis123]

i can hear michael jackson's retort now:

"...no, you're being ignorant.....its not sexual...a colon is a beautiful thing.....we cuddle and pick off polyps...."

This is just plain wrong! 😛

 

[Oddjob0226]

Is this thing inflatable? Like, could you hire it out for birthdays for the kids to jump around in it like one of those Moonwalker contraptions? Would the characters show up to the party?

 

[venray]

Hey Odd J ... I play the guy that complains to the mall office that I dont apperciate Eneman scaring the kids away from my store....


As for how it is put together....it comes in segments..... 😕

Check it out here...........

I'd like to hire it out for next Cinco deMayo, complete with fireworks and Mexican wrestlers!

Ah, memories of childhood...... seems so long ago.

I like how one woman in the photo has taken her shoes off to venture into the contraption. I mean, you don't want to accidently scuff the big plastic intestine....!

Eniman .... PolypMan.... this new Batman movie is gonna suck.
