"Ok Boomer."
But seriously though. After the proliferation of the printing press, I'm willing to bet, someone made the exact same joke about printed books. And I know that the Boomers' parents made the same joke about television, and their grandparents made the same joke about radio. And this isn't even really a Boomer joke, it's a Gen-X joke. I know because my boomer parents actually made this joke about Gameboys and walk-mans before the Internet (or at least convenient portable Internet) was even really a ubiquitous thing. It's just that Boomers are living longer and are so damn vocal and numerous that they are STILL making this joke, updated for the modern generation.
What technology will gen-Y and gen-alpha lament about in stale memes?

Glad I'm not the only one that noticed the odd bench. But I have another theory. It looks like a rotating device of some kind for the seat so that if the bench is wet from rain or covered in snow, one can rotate it to a dry side for a dry seat. I doubt the homeless, even the poor or lower classes, would have been allowed anywhere near such a garden as this anyway unless they were serving someone.
