This is my kind of church! If there were a church made out of Lego in my town, I'd be the first one there every Sunday morning.

Where’s Waldo: Star Wars, Batman, TARDIS, Spock & Lego Man Style
I think one reason why Where's Waldo has stayed popular for so many years is because it's one of the few puzzles that when you find the answer, you are left with such polarizing emotions.
