I’ve been ranting about this for years, too. (Hat tip: DYSPEPSIA GENERATION)

What you see above is the type of playground that was common before the 1990s – the type of playground that is both awesome, and able to harm children in many grisly ways – a feature which makes it doubly awesome. In the last 20 years, parents have lobbied to crack down on these so-called “dangerous” playgrounds because of their fear of harm coming to their lame-ass kids. Apparently modern parents think it’s a bad thing for their sons and daughters to come home with gaping animal wounds, or broken bones, and that’s where I say they’re wrong.
Frickin’ safety-Nazis…
