McDonalds Is Impossible by Chelsea Martin
Eating food from McDonald's is mathematically impossible. Because before you can eat it, you have to order it. And before you can order it, you have to decide what you want. And before you can decide what you want, you have to read the menu. And before you can read the menu, you have to be in front of the menu. And before you can be in front of the menu, you have to wait in line. And before you can wait in line, you have to drive to the restaurant. And before you can drive to the restaurant, you have to get in your car. And before you can get in your car, you have to put clothes on. And before you can put clothes on, you have to get out of bed.

Anecdote historique inutile n°28 : Après les kiekefretters (Bruxelloise.s), les kuulkappers (Saint-Gillois.e.s), je vous présente les Vaartkapoenen! (vaart : canal - kapoen : fripon). Historiquement, il s'agissait des dockers du canal qui se sont révoltés contre l'occupant Autrichien. Au XIXe siècle, il désignait les mauvais garçons de Molenbeek qui cherchaient noise aux Bruxellois. Une statue du nom de Vaartkapoen trône aujourd'hui au Canal. Appelé le Vaartkapoen, cette statue représente "la jeunesse qui fait vaciller l'autorité". Amen

Esculturas curiosas alrededor del mundo
La escultura es una de las formas del arte en la que se puede crear un objeto con el que la gente puede interactuar. Se instala en medio de un sitio concurrido un objeto inusual, con la apariencia de algo que podría estar allí, pero no lo está.
Estos objetos acercan a la gente con estas formas, que pueden ser representativas del país o de la sociedad en la que se incluyen, aunque estén físicamente lejos de ese lugar. Las esculturas son un mensaje sin texto, sujetos a la interpretación que cada persona que las vea pueda tener de ellas, pero es la primera impresión la que hará que una escultura nos guste o nos desagrade, nos divierta o nos parezca grotesca. Siempre es una experiencia enriquecedora encontrarse con estas instalaciones.

Agent 15 (uit de #stripreeks Quick & Flupke van #Hergé ) wordt pootje gehaakt door de "vaartkapoen". Leuk standbeeld terug te vinden op het Saincteletteplein, niet ver van de KBC. ❤️ Agent 15 (from the Quick & Flupke comics) pulled down. I like this #comic related statue in #Brussels a lot 😀.

De Vaartkapoen, Brussels, Belgium 
This statue was erected in 1985 in the Molenbeek area of Brussels. The scene it depicts is reminiscent of a comedy sketch: a man unexpectedly emerges from a manhole and pulls the feet from underneath a policeman. It’s author is Belgian sculptor Tom Frantzen.

New Post has been published on https://www.lutarsturizm.com/bruksel-kanal-ve-molenbeek-kosusu-turu.html
Brüksel: Kanal ve Molenbeek Koşusu Turu
Yerel koşu rehberiyle Kanal & Molenbeek bölgesini keşfedin. Tarihi merkezden daha az bilinen ancak her gün canlı ve gelişen bir alan, sanat, sokak sanatı ve yeni girişimlere dönüştürülen tarihi miras arasında mükemmel bir karışım.
Brüksel: Kanal ve Molenbeek Koşusu Turu
Öne çıkanlar
Bu komşuluk çevresine dağılmış yasal ve yasadışı sokak sanatını keşfedin
İlginç eski demiryolu binaları ve aşağıdan yukarıya açılan taban taban girişimleriyle yeni Tour & Taxis Park’ı dolaşın
Bir “Vaartkapoen” ın ne olduğunu bulun
Molenbeek kent meydanında saklı anıtı bulmaya çalışın
Modern sanat müzesi garajından Kanal’a geçin
Tam açıklama
Koşu turunuz sizi 19. yüzyılda bir sanayi bölgesi olarak kullanılan ama şimdi orijinal girişimlerle dolu heyecan verici bir alana dönüşen kanal ve Molenbeek bölgesinden geçirecektir. Eski sanayi mirası büyük şehir geliştirme girişimlerine, aşağıdan yukarıya doğru çıkan sanatçıların projelerine, organik pazarlara ve çok daha fazlasına dönüştürülmektedir.
Yeni garaj açılmış modern sanat müzesi Kanal’da başlayacaksınız. Oradan, 19. yüzyıldan kalma bir depodan geçmeden önce eski tren istasyonundan farklı binaları keşfederek Tour & Taxis Park’ı ziyaret edeceksiniz. Burada ayrıca eski demiryolu rayları boyunca uzanan yepyeni parkı keşfedeceksiniz. Bunu takiben Molenbeek’in merkezini ziyaret edecek, güzel ortak kullanım yeri (ve gizli sanat eseri), kozmopolit nüfus, eski fabrikalar sosyal işyerlerine ya da müzelerine bir kaç örnek vermek için bakacaksınız.
Tur daha sonra sizi Kanal’a yaklaştırır. Eski Bellevue sitesine baktıktan sonra tekrar Brüksel’deki diğer tarafa geçeceksiniz. Bugün Belçika’da hala var olan son “öncü kuleyi” göreceksiniz. Sonunda, hem yasal hem de yasadışı sokak sanatına ev sahipliği yapan St. Catherine Meydanı’ndan döneceksiniz.
Neler dahil?
Otelden alma ve bırakma (eğer rotaya yakınsa)
Su
Hariç olanlar
Spor kıyafetleri ve ayakkabılar
Kimler için uygun değil
Tekerlekli sandalye kullananlar
