design decisions

I have mentioned before that I don't like strollers.
The devices that Danes put their infants in are
larger, more elaborate contraptions than what
Americans do, and I prefer to call them
prams. It sounds like something bigger and
more substantial than stroller, IMO.
Regardless, I don't like them much either. Even so,
put aside the fact that I have no desire to own or
use one and admit that some of them look kinda cute.
This post isn't about the cute ones, though.
Seriously, am I the only one who thinks some of these prams look as if they were designed by the same people who make coffins and hearses? I wish I had a picture of one I saw being pushed around Hellerup this morning. It was baby blue, but they still managed to make it look like a wheeled baby coffin. What's the attraction to that? I don't get it.
