  For a glorious moment, I forgot about the man and thought Toronto had a giant dragon-like ice sculpture… damn reality ruins everything

      I know it’s the keyhole on a chest in that first photo, but damned if it doesn’t look like a dragons penis graffiti.

    Ha. Me too! It wasn’t until I saw the bit about “his new album” that I realized something was wrong. But it took a while. I first assumed that there was a typo that cut out the artist’s name.

    Same, but my second thought was Tim Drake. Third times the charm for me though

  Why would fans of his try to melt it?

    What a stupid stunt. Everyone headline sound like they are doing it because he’s a pedo.

      Well maybe they are and the news are just trying to pretend otherwise.

  A giant slab of ice is a sculpture now?

    The designer called it a scuplture. Who am I to judge what art is?

      You are you! You can and must judge. For yourself, naturally.

  It wasn’t even a statue of Drake, just a rectangle of ice blocks?

    IRL engagement bait. My brain hurts trying to decipher my hatred for this kind of thing.

  The intention was to make a statement.

  And that statement was what, exactly?

  We wanted the fans to be able to enjoy it for as long as possible.

  Next up: watch paint dry.
