The first two aptly document a building that has no appeal to me, yet 
exists, so thanks for documenting ?

The following two examplify what I resent most in modern western society , 
further than kitsch, it is shit for the masses, and I?m , well, sorry for 
the world for that.

But of course, later generations will label these as ? historical ? ?
