The Bizarre Things People Do

Its not until you get a bicycle and find a place to park and chain it that you find some of the weird things people chain up...

Every child's dream car. Thefts would normally come from teenagers to adults. I can't think of a toddler who would try and steal this car. In fact I cannot imagine anyone in my area who would want to steal it. Unless there's a jealous parent somewhere who wants to get rid of this car because it makes his child's smaller more broken car look bad. It doesn't make sense to lock this up. What's more it is wasting the space I could park my bicycle in! But it cannot be compared to this:

If this was meant as a joke by some jovial parent then I think its quite hilarious. You chain your bicycle up because you do not want someone to steal it and people steal it because they can use it. However, I cannot put a finger to why someone would chain a pram. Is there some adult out there who rides prams around the neighbourhood? Perhaps the same jealous parent who might want to steal the car would also consider stealing the Awesom-O 2000 pram because it is better than his/her Brav-O 1000 pram.

I respect the owner's freedom to chain up anything he/she wants. You can even chain your misbehaving child there (though it would be considered child abuse and I would call the cops) but I just find it bizarre that people would keep such things under lock and key. In fact such objects would normally be kept at home. More importantly it is taking up space which I would have wanted to use for parking my bicycle!
