Mt Rushmore is a very good symbol of the US in that way. Looks impressive in marketing and media, but tacky and small IRL

Be sure to follow the rule before you head out.
Rule: You must post before you leave.
You have to park in a garage and walk down a narrow path lined with people trying to sell you shit. Its more like visiting a mall with aggressive salesmen than a national park. It was the worst stop I made during a cross country road trip.
i think its also a very good symbol of how the US just forgets about even their very own laws at a snap of a finger and that no nation in the world (not even the us itself) can ever trust them with anything. like for example the so called freedom of religion when we're at the Sioux Blackbhills anyway.
Hmm my analogy was better
mt. splashmore or gtfo
Looks like a random Minecraft structure bodged into the land
Even as a young child I was very disappointed seeing it in person. Very underwhelming. The only cool part I thought was looking through the binocular things and spying on other tourists. I was an odd kid whatever
Same thing with seeing the Mona Lisa in person. It's a very small painting against the a far wall in a special room, and that room is packed shoulder-to-shoulder, asshole-to-elbow shithead tourists. Kinda cool to see it in person I guess, but not really worth the effort

Yes, that is indeed extremely strange behavior. I don't believe that it has ever been reported before /s
It's even worse on a rainy day, if not ironic.
the big stone heads are crying. this is a bad omen
Why are Lincoln's snot trails the reverse of everyone else?
He got that thick brow
When I first saw the Statue of Liberty I was genuinely amazed at how small it was 😂
You should see the one we have in Paris
I prefer Spain's.
What did you expect? I never saw it in person but looking at Wikipedia, that's a large-ass statue.
It's not that small considering it was both free and had to be taken apart to fit on a single ship lol
Hey, maybe it was just a cold day, okay?
Do women know about shrinkage?
I thought they zoomed in on the faces so you could see them
We should give back that to the natives, alongside with some TNT in case they want those faces to go.
