Shady Vans

The reflectors placed on the tail of this shady van were likely left as warnings from other children, but will, unfortunately, do as much to attract newcomers.

Then again, the lack of symmetry suggest that an adult tried to put these on as a child would.  Shady.

Reflectors attract attention, which is something most chesters want to avoid.  I don’t get it.

Shady Rating = 5. (Lots of windows, not parked alone, etc.)

Possible reasons for such a low-sitting van?

• Purposefully lowered to allow for an easier step-up for young, short legs?
• Too many bags of candy?
• King-size mattress?

Or, the one thing we’re all thinking, but are too ashamed to say… stacks of bodies?

In any case, Shady Rating = 8. (Too many windows, er, escape hatches, to get a full, glorious 10)

Jessica from Indexed knows what we’re talkin’ about:

No explanation necessary.

Shady Rating = 10

Ah, the first van. All the elements are here:

• Deserted hotel.
• Van parked where 50% of windows are blocked by wall.
• Sidewalks overtaken by grass.
