“I am not a prude or a conservative, but the statue should never have
been erected here because of its doubtful artistic quality,” he told
AFP, stressing that sooner or later it would have to go.
Meanwhile, websites were flooded by ironic comments from bloggers.
“I don’t get it, the guy has no underwear but the stray dog wears a
scarf, so is it cold or is it warm?,” wondered NL on HotNews.ro.
“I suggest the statue should be called ‘Centurion Biggus Dickus (as in
Monty Python’s Life of Brian) and the Levitating Dog’,” wrote another,
I.
“Bucharest’s mayor has just inaugurated the first monument dedicated to
Romania’s stray dogs,” wrote Times New Roman, a humorous website, while
a reader, Sousake, added: “The orginal name of the statue was: Romanian
man after paying his taxes.”
