QuoteThere's really only one way to approach this story: Imagine you are an artist named Zhao, and you have spent three days and three nights placing hundreds of Lego pieces atop one another until you finally create a human-size figurine featuring the likeness of Nick, a character from the movie "Zootopia." Your masterpiece is worth more than 100,000 yuan (or a little over $15,000) when it's completed.

QuoteIt is your magnum opus. Your everything.

QuoteImagine you bring said sculpture to the Lego Expo in Ningbo, China. Imagine it's the exhibition's first day, and the public has been allowed to view the display for a little over an hour when ... when ... a little boy pushes your prized Lego sculpture over, breaking it and causing little Lego pieces to cascade across the floor.

I would likely straight up murder the little sum'bitch.

And then, go after the little brat's parents for being that stupid.

I guess it could have been worse, though! I mean, it's not like they let their kid crawl into a gorilla exhibit or anything! :D
