Wow what a unique disaster preparation concept.

These ducks are popular — hence: Apr 13, 2023 — The world’s largest rubber ducky is coming back to Toronto’s waterfront in the fall, specifically on September 16 and 17 at Queens Quay East ..

Hong Kong protected their Giant duck — Jun 11, 2023 — One of two giant rubber ducks on display in Hong Kong’s Victoria Harbor was deflated on Saturday to protect it from sweltering temperatures.

Tokyo should install a jukebox next to that vending machine. Next time Godzilla rampages, it plays Blue Oyster Cult.

Then Ernie flew to Hong Kong to see them.

Could a hungry sumo wrestler knock the machine over if he had the munchies?

Maybe somewhere there’s a blue whale that sees those yellow rubber duckies. I don’t know about in a Hong Kong harbor, though. Maybe a little boy with a whale of a story about swimming through the arteries of the progeny of Jonah’s “fish.”

May the fiord be with you as it is with the sea. And gesundheit.

Those vending machines make a lot of sense, but how would you keep one greedy person from snatching and stealing all the food?

♪ “Rubber Ducky, you’re the (big) one…” ♪

And what idiots paid for the “fine work of art”?

Only in a homogenous society would these vending machines survive. Over here in the USA, they would be stolen and trashed within a week.

The World’s Largest Rubber Duck is often part of the tall ships tour.

Just wait – these duckies will become standard issue inflatable lawn decorations for Xmas/Halloween/Easter in the near future.

The kid in the whale arteries is going to need SCUBA gear to survive.

hope they unlock all the beer vending machines, too. and the ones that sell schoolgirls’ underwear. no, sadly, i’m not making that last one up…
