let's all blame the fat kid
 |
i came across this fat kid in a statue near the Smithfield Meat market. Apparently, in direct contrast to the Mannequin Pis this kid was blamed for starting the 'great' fire of london.
the religious people of the day said it was God's judgement on the city's sin of gluttony. they put up a statue of a fat kid to warn people of what can happen if you get a bit lardy interesting that the kid doesn't look too fat by today's standards ... |
