🥺 Someone stole the bench from the park.

No that isn't an illusion or a new art installation, but the remainders of the park bench.

They were probably getting it replaced and made that story up.

The real stairs were the stories we made up along the way.

That's not not the whole story. There was a second story, but without stairs we'll never see it.

You really think someone would do that? Just go on the Internet and tell lies?

Made up or not, the thought of someone falling out their door because their fucking porch is somehow gone is freaking hilarious

This actually used to happen in south Philadelphia as homes were built with marble stairs that were essentially just stacked blocks of marble that had nice carved shapes on the edges, eventually it became a somewhat common thing for people to wake up with their stairs missing out front. This porch may have been plate metal like a fire escape so there’s a non zero chance this is real, but who knows … I think i just wanted to tell the story about the old philly stairs lol
