Sounds like a scene from a dystopian movie set in the future. Like a park in a city where the populace has lost its soul and everything is sterile and white and hopeless.

CITIZEN: OUR AUTOMATIC TEXT ANALYSIS HAS DETECTED INTENTION OF VANDALISM AND YOUR REPUTATION WAS LOWERED 50 POINTS. YOU ARE NO LONGER ALLOWED TO ENTER PUBLIC PARKS.

IF YOUR REPUTATION FALLS BELOW ZERO YOU WILL BE ENCOURAGED TOWARDS THE NEAREST CITIZEN ENHANCEMENT CENTER.

YOUR REMAINING REPUTATION IS 42.
