Liminal spaces are the subject of an Internet aesthetic portraying empty or abandoned places that appear eerie, forlorn, and often surreal. Liminal spaces are commonly places of transition (pertaining to the concept of liminality) or of nostalgic appeal.

I'm not climbing around in abandoned play areas. That's the kind of thing that ends in a slide collapse with First Responders using your rescue for training purposes, and every local news station documenting an embarrassing, multi-color rescue operation that is perfectly visually-suited to the evening news, with a mug shot and desk anchors shaking their heads at my stupidity.
I'll pass.
Respectable. But some of us are just that desperate to get some Media Attention;)
