What Makes a Monster? The included pic you see is the userpic of the LiveJournal user shadowdrop.  Changing the context of this creature completely changes my view of it.  If I saw this thing coming towards me in an alley I would most certainly shoot it.  Where is the line though between uncomfortable abnormality and  monster? I don’t know anything about this creature, but my first instinct is to hurt it.  If it said “wait for me!” like the amusing caption states I would change my actions. I have nothing profound to report, I am just a little surprised at myself.
