    McDonald’s removing all the indoor playgrounds really drives this one home.

      I was remembering the McDonald's party rooms today and how they're like a liminal space

      Those places were a den of disease and child filth everywhere. I've had to clean a ball pit before after a child vomited into ours, and that was just one kid. Imagine hundreds of kids in a day moving through an area, with dirty diapers, drool, vomit. It's terrible. Nearly every worker there got something like meningitis or skin rashes at least once. I can't even imagine how many kids left our ball pit with pinworms.

      It's a cute idea to have indoor playgrounds but the unfortunate reality is children are disgusting
