Back when the riverside dock was our secret hangout spot

We'd spend hours there and hardly ever saw another person. These days, you're lucky to find a spot to sit, lmao.

Yeah, that line about being lucky to find a spot to sit hits different now. I always figured more people finding a cool place was a good thing, you know, sharing the beauty. But seeing the trash left behind last time, and the literal line for a photo, it just feels hollow now. It changed from a place you go to be, to a place you go to be seen. Kinda ruins the magic that made it special in the first place.

Wait, a line for photos? That's where it's totally jumped the shark. Sean_Davis is right about it just being for show now. When you need to wait your turn to pretend to have a real moment somewhere, the whole point is gone. The magic was in having a place that felt separate from all that noise. Now it's just another background for social media, and the quiet part that made it special is completely dead.
