i have to say, from the looks of the stroller and the child's whimsical, fashionable hat, those might very well be the parents of yuppies looking after their grandchild for the afternoon while mommy and daddy go to their IntenSati class, where they do yoga moves while shouting affirmations like "I am powerful!" and "I will succeed!"
I can only presume that no one is seriously arguing about the yuppification of the ping pong table, or the ping pong table yuppifying the park.
If so, these people are just as much fools in the culture war as the Tea Party. Go make a case for housing education public transport no war and health care. And to hell with policing stroller models.
I was being sarcastic, Kimberley. Thought that might have been obvious considering the nice looking people and the little kid being in the pics and all. Maybe not. Hope that clears things up.
For those that don't understand the reason for the sarcasm, please read the comments at the original ping pong table post: http://evgrieve.com/2011/03/table-tennis-comes-to-tompkins-square.html
Thank you, Jeremy, for posting a link to background information that will help correct our failure to understand. Surely there was no failure in the sarcasm itself.

That kid looks like a future FRAT BOY to me, uggh! This ping pong table is just terrible! Tear it out!
What a bunch of "self-absorbed narcicists who moved here from St Elsewhere!"
So hateful. Toward a child even. You should be ashamed of yourself.
