Weird even by my standards

This is one of the weirdest things I've ever read. And yet this is inexplicably fascinating. And the artist's gallery is kind of amazing.

I...don't understand. And yet. Inexplicably fascinating.

(I think "Costumed cast member wandering around the Disney themeparks" would have to be the worst job in the world. Worse than telemarketing, even.)

ETA: OMG.

No. No no no. No. No no.

I admit that it makes me feel a little oogy inside, and yet I can't look away.

I'd have to disagree there. At least in a stupid costume, most of the people you harass are happy to see you. (It is Disney, after all.) You wouldn't feel like you were actively making other people's lives hell.

But you have to deal with CHILDREN. All day long. CHILDREN. Dancing with children, talking with children, getting their kiddy germs all over you...oh dear god, it's like a living nightmare.

Dude, by that definition, my job is a living hell...and in reality, the only thing that keeps it from leaping wholeheartedly into that territory are the kids.

I assume you don't loathe them with the fire of a thousand burning suns? And you don't have to deal with the tiny ones? (Seriously, my version of hell is a pack of screaming four-year-olds. With country music playing in the background.)
