I had to read that multiple times, confused as to why their work was looking confused in a museum and how dating apps were conflicting with that.

Dating apps aren't working time to make a meme with bad punctuation.

That's because it was written very shittily.

Some 78 year old docent will approach you.

[–] Beldarofremulak@discuss.online 15 points 2 days ago (1 children)

It's a trap fellas. You don't approach women in public anymore especially at a museum. Next thing you know you are spending the rest of your life combatting the fall out of that time you went viral for being a "creep at the museum". Best to call the non-emergency number and wait for a professional.

I am just tempted to print out that wikihow thing onto 15 pages, approach someone, and start following it step by step, reading it from the paper.

Do it. Obviously stop if the person isn't responding well, but that's some primo performance art

[–] nanoswarm9k@lemmus.org 5 points 2 days ago (1 children)

cool, yah. as long as the audience can decline and leave, it's a performance. Otherwise it's harrasment -- fortunately the other article covers the finer points of avoiding cornering people or behaving like a stalker pretty well.

Honestly it might actually be funnier to do it on a street corner at nobody and everybody. And be sure to pick a place that's friendly to performance art

Has she considered infodumping? I hear that's a great hook. Might even be able to stay in the plane museum if that's her interest.

I have a museum near me that has some old trains.... 🤔

She’d have an easier time cosplaying as Scully at an X-Files convention.

[–] Death_Equity@lemmy.world 5 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Maybe, if she wants an older man that has RFID sheets.

Who does?

No seriously, I want to slide into their dead drop and swap messenger pigeons.

[–] tetris11@lemmy.ml 12 points 3 days ago

I mean, yeah? I volunteer at a local old airport/museum, and that is pretty much my jam

[–] eestileib@lemmy.blahaj.zone 8 points 2 days ago

Might pick up a girl too...

[–] lordnikon@lemmy.world 9 points 3 days ago

Might have even better luck in the Roman history section.

[–] KSPAtlas@sopuli.xyz 4 points 2 days ago

I read this wrong and thought this was akin to "don't dip your pen in company ink"

[–] werefreeatlast@lemmy.world -2 points 1 day ago

Sure, if you want a pedantic patzy history buff. Lol.
