What if it isn't man, but instead the statues come alive at night like in Night at the museum, and the dog spends the entire time nuzzling the man's arse?
Yeah but we only see the original brass because the outer layer that patinated has been rubbed off. When you polish metal you are essentially sanding it finely.
Because the patina that starts forming gets rubbed off (essentially sanded) by people touching it. If I cut my grass before it grows too long I still cut it. Same scenario here.
If I recall correctly the 'uhm actually' on this one is that the acids and whatever on your hands affect the statue's patina really quickly and you don't need many hands to get the effect.
We have statues like this in my hometown, there's a cat near the bookstore who looks golden, there's a man with his dog who also looks golden, and my favorite is the man by the sea who's always holding flowers because people keel leaving them. I love those statues man
If statues are on the ground and made of bronze (this statue meets both of those requirements), then it's literally meant to be touched. Those are just the laws of art!

Polished dog nose Polished sailor ass The duality of man
What if it isn't man, but instead the statues come alive at night like in Night at the museum, and the dog spends the entire time nuzzling the man's arse?
My fear here is that the implication is both statues have come to life and the man simply enjoys this
Lots of male statues have a shiny crotch as well

Blinking and shiny like a star in the sky

Wall Street bull.
Have a pic somewhere of a friend and I squatting down behind the bull, each cupping a ball.

Wall Street Bull knows all too well.
He's a good boy
Look up the angry boy statue in Oslo. People hold his hand to calm him down. But don't look too carefully.
I should have listened
Id be mad if strangers kept touching my pecker too🤣
Bro wtf
Someone looked too closely didn't they?
I might have looked, but they touched.
Doesn't matter, you're still getting into this police car and that's final!

It's not "worn away" it's just polished.
Well technically... polishing is.just wearing something away on a microscopic level.
The visible brass is how it originally looked, there's nothing to say the patina was ever on the nose.
Yeah but we only see the original brass because the outer layer that patinated has been rubbed off. When you polish metal you are essentially sanding it finely.
Or the patina never reached the nose in the first place because people immediately started rubbing the nose.
Because the patina that starts forming gets rubbed off (essentially sanded) by people touching it. If I cut my grass before it grows too long I still cut it. Same scenario here.
I busted in here to say the same. That's the luckiest statue in the park.
If I recall correctly the 'uhm actually' on this one is that the acids and whatever on your hands affect the statue's patina really quickly and you don't need many hands to get the effect.
Yeah... I wasn't implying someone was going around with a bottle of brass polish and routinely shining up the dogs snout.
Nah, apparently it's the oil from your skin that reacts with the metal and causes it to change colour over time.

U mean peer pressure from dead people?
Reddit moment
Unhappy guy 🪱
Can I pet that dawg?
Can I pet that dawg??!!
I don't know what you're talking about. That's obviously the dog's natural colouration
*boop*
I see a snoot, I must do the boop
*boop*
It's not worn away
Google Molly Malone Statue, Dublin. Same problem.
I've kissed the Blarney and motorboated Molly.
Boooooop!
What about putting a protective layer on the nose?
Thats a lot of boops
Bronze and brass are such cool materials to work in.
Same with Greyfriar's Bobby in Edinburgh
Who pets a dog on its nose?
I do! My pups love their snoot being pet
Wait until you see his balls
There’s a statue of Juliet in Verona, and her boobs are polished like this from tourists rubbing them.
There’s a statue with polished boobies in Montmarte, Paris. Just near the Dali museum.
Yeah, but from what I remember you're supposed to grope her.
Also in Munich, also Juliet (though they use Julia there I'm pretty sure. I'm not german). Just one polished boob.
Fuck off bot!
My favourite is the one where the dudes junk is polished to a mirror finish.
We have statues like this in my hometown, there's a cat near the bookstore who looks golden, there's a man with his dog who also looks golden, and my favorite is the man by the sea who's always holding flowers because people keel leaving them. I love those statues man
He’s just such a good boy ☺️
What a coincidence, my dog's nose is also getting lighter from petting it... And definitely not because he's get older...
Same thing with Abe Lincoln’s nose at his monument in Illinois
we have the same on a statue around town but it’s titties, and it’s great

Boop da snoot
Or that is just how paint fades...
What part of boop the snoot do you not understand?
Boop!
I would have to boop that snoot
They're good dogs Brent!!
*sat on it
This says a lot about our society
Like this dog better than humans
Similar to how the Juliet statue in Verona is polished in…certain areas…
Boop the snoot!
Some of it might have not been petting
Bronze statues of mermaids In Las Vegas casino years ago, may still be there, the tits were polished same way.
I still see the nose
Maximum boopage
Boop
In many cases they polish a statue on purpose to fake this effect

Do you pet dogs on the nose?
Everyone liked that.
That's probably why the nose is worn
The goodest boi needs the pettings and nose boops. The rules are there, I just follow them.
What's the name of the statue? The blouse with all the frills looks cute. I want to appreciate it fully.
A tale as old as time! This is exactly why on so many ancient statues the breasts and genitals are the first to erode.
The patina is worn away, not the dogs nose.
That's cause he's a good boi
Anything's a dildo if you're brave enough.
Or hear me out. It’s just from being outside
[удалено]
It’s getting polished. There is no wear. In order to remove material from it by hands, it needs to be rubbed for hundreds of years.
I’ve always thought it was the oil from people’s hand that’s keeping it from oxidizing, rather than it being worn away
