Creative?

Necessity is the mother of invention.
~ English Proverb

When you see things out of context, you have to make up your own meanings.  Like if you saw this chair sitting somewhere you might have concerns about the people who used it.  You might wonder about their sense of safety.

But if you saw it at Leslie's house and realized it was a makeshift high chair security system you would...  Well, let's be honest.  You'd think the same thing. Some things are scary even IN context, I guess.

And I'm not sure the fire extinguisher in the background is particularly reassuring.

If necessity is the mother of invention, then I guess creativity is the grandmother of invention.  Or maybe it's intervention.  

Words are funny.
