u/holymoly67 1d ago

And from Europe! (Germany?) Edit: Probably not

u/jamsd204 1d ago

This looks like the UK, style of house, lamppost, and wheelie bins point in that direction

16

u/koshgeo 1d ago

I'm surprised the geoguessers haven't narrowed it down to a street address yet.

24

u/V6Ga 1d ago

Have you wheelie bin to the UK?

u/MarDaNik 1d ago

I have wheelie wheelie bin in the UK. Honest.

u/sugarplum_nova 1d ago

I live England, this looks like where my childhood family home is. Obvs not saying it’s same place. But yeah, 99% sure this is UK.

u/reginald_underfoot 1d ago

Id guess somewhere on the outskirts of Manchester

u/MoistStub 1d ago

Pretty sure they haven't invented shadows there yet

You might hate it but this is the kind of content this sub was founded on.

u/mishmash2323 1d ago

Absolutely. Instant gratification, not eye candy.

u/SleepModerator 1d ago

Yup and you can't explain easily that satisfaction which makes it oddly datisfying

It is oddly satisfying, isn't it?

u/mgranja 1d ago

Do not the grass.

u/frankylampy 1d ago

Only when you see it from the right angle

157

u/TheHumanPickleRick 2d ago

You don't see it but there's a sign that says "Keep Off the Grass" and the shadow is very respectful of rules.

11

u/MiserableSkill4 1d ago

While we're watching! What about in private?

5

u/LyyK 1d ago

You should have seen it 15 min ago, it was practically rolling on the grass

1

u/mgranja 1d ago

Do not the grass.

u/ThinNeighborhood2276 2d ago

The symmetry and sharp edges of the shadow are really pleasing to look at!

The r/BotBouncer project has already verified that u/ThinNeighborhood2276 is a bot. Further checking is unnecessary.

I am a bot. This action was performed automatically. Check my profile for more information.

That’s that good good right there

u/Cheapcolon 1d ago

This one’s doing it for me.

u/tommangan7 1d ago edited 1d ago

Abundant man hole covers, block paved sections of street going back down to tarmac, red brick, homes close to the pavement but also weirdly closed off from the street, the air of emptiness, a trades van...

My God it's a British new build estate.

u/UmbroShinPad 1d ago

The bricked up window on the top left is so "British new build" it hurts.

u/loribyas 2d ago

My inner perfectionist is satisfied

3

u/Theskov21 1d ago

The crazy part is that it is actually just painted on the road...

u/reddit-mods-fuckyou 1d ago

That's nice. I like that.

2

u/MisterEAlaska 1d ago

That pole is only available in select countries in Europe. It's from Valmont Structures and called a slipper column.

u/Wow_wow_wow69 1d ago

Lamp : See, now what you wanna do is take a left Riiiiiiiiight over here.

u/Villikortti1 1d ago

Bro is plaing grass is lava

u/C1t1zen_Erased 1d ago

Lovely new build estate in the UK

2

u/JimHadar 1d ago

Yep, I can almost see the Show Home by the entrance to the estate.

u/BigAlternative5 1d ago

“Keep Off the Grass”

1

u/CarpeNivem 1d ago

This makes me unreasonably happy... I love it so much.

1

u/OmNomOnSouls 1d ago

I wonder whether this person noticed this, thought they wanted the picture, then waited for the perfect angle of the sun to capture this. That's commitment.

1

u/GruffMcguffStuff 1d ago

A little to the left

1

u/pingus3233 1d ago

Oh yeah, that's the stuff.

1

u/Accomplished-Flan250 1d ago

That is a very polite shadow. Obeying the "stay off the grass" sign. Neat!

1

u/coccyxdynia 1d ago

So this proves that shadows prevent grass from spreading. Makes total sense since we all know grass needs sunlight to grow.

1

u/Charbocat 1d ago

Maybe everything will be ok after all!

1

u/canadiuman 1d ago

At 11:23am on April 2nd each year, you can find the location of the Ark.

u/Coasterman345 1d ago

Are you sure it’s not painted on the road?

Start point for the 'Lucky Charms Hunt'.

u/Decent-Insect3100 1d ago

It's probably painted

/s

u/SoupSandwhichSortie 1d ago

I thought this was a casing to a 30-06. I need glasses.

1

u/Cachemorecrystal 1d ago

Hover game on point.

1

u/WhyFlip 1d ago

Even the shadow wants you to get lost.

1

u/Ok_Improvement_8735 1d ago

Hm. I find this satisfying, oddly.

1

u/suenoselectronicos 1d ago

Thank you, just thank you. ( Slow clap. )

u/Mr_IsLand 1d ago

u/DotBitGaming 1d ago

So unsatisfying How you capitalize Random words.

u/Open-Industry-8396 1d ago

squared away shadow, promote immediately

u/Just_Saying_Howdy 1d ago

The lamp looks weird.

1

u/Unlikely_Ad_4767 1d ago

Make a note of the time and date, that amazing moment won't always be here.

1

u/Ravada 1d ago

Only available between 9:15AM and 9:20AM.

1

u/Amity423 1d ago

Google, what's the word for a phobia of grass

1

u/ramtripper 1d ago

Aha that's because you stood at the right spot to take that picture! Anywhere else it wouldn't perfectly align... /s

1

u/markyoung0 1d ago

Nice one.

1

u/218administrate 1d ago

Oh this shit is my jam. Anyone got a sub for those of us who line things up?

1

u/wxChris13 1d ago

Oh this is scrumptious! Love it

1

u/MeanChicken8537 1d ago

So satisfying it’s giving me a weird boner 🤔

1

u/Electronic-Egg-3950 1d ago

i thought this said “Shadow cat” and i was trying to find a cat in this image 😭

1

u/LRGChicken 1d ago

I give it 24 hours before a GeoGessr nails your home address.

1

u/porcupine_mystery 1d ago

lol I was just wondering where this would be based on the lamp meta

1

u/_ola-kala_ 1d ago

Not only is this oddly satisfying, but kudos for noticing & sharing!

1

u/Evanovich007 1d ago

Keep off da grass

1

u/mmf9194 1d ago

You get to talk to Avatar Roku but only on the day it perfectly lines up

1

u/The_French_Spy 1d ago

What a British looking street

u/Civil-Confection-662 1d ago

Lamppost hugging the grass 😁

1

u/Hex_MyDadBeatMe 1d ago

Should be illegal

1

u/Nine-LifedEnchanter 1d ago

I have no idea what sort of life a city planner might have. But I do know that the guy that made this happen walks through the city factory, his coworkers hold out their hands, and he runs, high fiving them all. I believe this happens every day.

1

u/queseyoamigo 1d ago

I feel like this lamp is trying to flex on the other ones in the neighborhood

1

u/Bootiluvr 1d ago

Yes. Hug the grass my child

u/sledgehammer357 1d ago

“Everybody liked that” 👍

u/Maximum-Throat1925 22h ago

I am respecting OP seeing and appreciating the little things...I love this

1

u/peev22 2h ago

That’s a nice fence right there.

If you’re trespassing you’re automatically sent to the shadow realm.
