Montreal Offends With More Than Christmas Trees

While the brouhaha over those "holiday" trees in Seattle pipes down, the war against Christmas decorations is heating up over at Montreal blog Midnight Poutine. Up north, the outrage has little to do with menorahs, and much to do with giant turd-like icicle decorations. Take this encounter from blogger Cat:
The Ice Man Cometh. He cometh and he dumpeth his stool and he dropethhis feces upon us. One presumes that what the "designer" is aiming forhere is some sort of Christmassy icicle effect or glowy North Polestalactite (tiny coloured lights illiuminate the thing at night).Can you picture the monstrosity for yourself? Click through to take a peek, and check out the other glaring offences they've spotted so far. Midnight Poutine will continue to follow developments in ugliness through Christmas, so adventurous travelers will want to keep tabs (try entering "hideous" in a site search). It would make for a fabulous alternative sort of walking art tour!
Let's just call a spade and spade (and somebody, please, fetch a spade!) and name this for what it truly is: crap.
