The colorful tour buses that ply Bangkok’s streets and Thailand’s highways are – for some reason no one’s ever been able to explain – splashed with crazy paintings in an acid-trip kaleidoscope of color. Everything from Disney cartoons to Grimm’s fairy tales to heavy metal dreams are represented on these things, some better than others but all equally creative. There seems to be no end of what the artists will create. Of course, some of it is borderline inappropriate; it’s a bit odd to see a bunch of grade 3 faces staring out of windows a few inches above cartoon Valkyries with huge boobs fighting a horde of drooling orcs. At any rate, I was driving down the street one day and saw this terrifying creature on the back of one of these buses.
