The weirdos, punks and hippies in the town where I grew up all hung out at a little park downtown. Many of us are on a social media group together. Someone shared this park classic with us. (lemmy.world)

I've seen this exact picture in memes from half a decade ago! Same angle and everything.

Ha. It really is from the park where I grew up.

Send a photo from a different angle and we'll believe you

Sorry, I don't possess the necessary time machine.

Yeah, I saw it reposted a lot on r/trees over the years.

I swear it was from People's Park in Bloomington, Indiana. I could even tell you who carved it if I wanted to doxx them, which I don't.

Edit: This is the only photo of it I can find before they renovated it in the 2000s without pictures of friends in it. You can see the bricks are the same even though you can't see that table.
