An uncanny likeness

What species of tree are they trying to imitate? At gross distortions of scale and proportion, these obscene things no more resemble a tree than a snowman resembles a person. And to what end?

Authentic ugliness is a lesser offense than pretend beauty. Cell phone tower trees are ugly and their designers believe we are too dumb to realize it.
