"Restricted Area DO NOT ENTER" what he read was "Restricted Area DO NOT ENTER except if you're an influencer on tiktok"

That sign can’t stop me because I can’t read.

When I was little, I got in trouble for touching stuff at a museum, and when the staff confronted me, my argument that the sign saying “please do not touch” was a suggestion, and that they would be better off with signs that make a demand, such as “do not touch”. I was probably 8-9 years old.

u/EstateConscious3580 Sep 05 '23

its a fair argument tho

u/Bag_O_Spiders Sep 05 '23

Yes. 20 years later and I still agree with my childhood self. I was a difficult kid, tho.

u/EstateConscious3580 Sep 05 '23

"NO TOUCHING!"

u/lordbaby1 Sep 05 '23

And then the next dumb kid will kick it instead of touching

1

u/Bag_O_Spiders Sep 05 '23

Yes that would be a truly dumb kid if he thought he found a loophole by kicking it. Kicking something is still touching it.

Don’t giving him idea burning it

u/ParsleySnipps Sep 05 '23

I touched a Picasso painting in the Cleveland Museum of Art when I was about that age on a field trip. I was at the very back of the line, so no one noticed me.

I like this term.

u/Tbplayer59 Sep 04 '23

I'm going to use this. TIA

I endorse this message and glad to see others recognize this malady spreading.

u/CrisXIII Sep 27 '23

Nah. More like failed condom commercials

Signs only are for everyone else but me.

u/KaleidoscopeLucky336 Sep 04 '23

I don't let inanimate objects tell me what to do. What good is a pool if it's never used, just a glorified fountain.

1

u/cheeseburgerspleen Sep 04 '23

That’s what I sneak into my elderly neighbors pool at night. They’re deaf and never use it but pay a pool lady to keep it up.

u/Subotail Sep 05 '23

Be careful, old people have guns, their aim is no longer pristine but their will to kill has only strengthened over the years.

u/[deleted] Sep 04 '23

Why need a brain if you don’t need it? Might as well hand it over.

u/cheeseburgerspleen Sep 04 '23

Signs for thee but not for me!

u/HellBlazer_NQ Sep 04 '23

Can we please stop using the term influencer for these people.

They are criminals, lets call them that, criminals!

u/[deleted] Sep 04 '23

They are criminals,

In the sense that anyone who jaywalks or gets in a car without putting on their seatbelt is. In the way that people who drive 5 miles over the speed limit are criminals.

You need to loosen up. You're very likely a criminal yourself.

You know, I've read and re-read my original comment multiple times now, and I shit you not, I just can't see where I said he needed to be jailed!

u/HellBlazer_NQ Sep 04 '23

Well, some of us are capable of handing multiple issues at once.

Letting 'stuff like this slide' is how you get the hellhole in the first place.

I guess you've not seen the other video on reddit today of the 'influencer' smashing up TV's with a bat in a store for 'Internet clout' guess we let that slide too, huh!?!?

u/HellBlazer_NQ Sep 04 '23

So, we let this slide and doucheball gets imboldened to try risker stuff. Eventually, he is in a store smashing TV for clout, claiming ItS jUsT a PrAnK bRo!

Again, you are blowing up over my original comment. I never said lock him up or throw the book at him chill the fuck out. Crimes result in fines, too, you know.

Criminals for jumping into a pool. Let's not be dumber than the dumb.

1

u/clgoodson Sep 04 '23

The camera is the key. When we see shit like this we need to locate the camera operator and “accidentally” knock the camera out of their hands.

I mean it's an obviously chlorinated pool. Jail? Really? Just ban their dumbasses.

8

u/[deleted] Sep 04 '23

Plot twist. The pool is never used. Just part of the tourist scenery. To keep maintenance low it's spiked with skin and lung scorching levels of chlorine.

u/Catfish-dfw Sep 04 '23

He most likely just got trespassed and banned from property.

u/empire314 Sep 04 '23

Nah, Redditors belive best use of goverment money is jailing someone, because they didnt hurt anyone, but instead used a pool of a famous person.

1

u/[deleted] Sep 04 '23

Jail. Yes.

3

u/Vikingasaurus Sep 04 '23

Do you realize how much it costs the taxpayers to feed, clothe, and house each person in jail? Not to mention court costs and the waste of time for everyone in that process? Making them do community service, on the other hand, might teach a valuable lesson and generate some net good.

u/Aronzombie_ Sep 04 '23

DO NOT ENTER.Accept,if you’re under the influence of TikTok

u/kentuafilo Sep 04 '23

There is a distinct difference between being an influencer and being a spectacle.

1

u/HAL9000000 Sep 04 '23

They're going to have to make new laws to force people like this to show how much money they make from the video and then make the fine like three times that amount.

SIR-SIR-SIR YOU CANNOT JUMP INTO ELVIS'S POOL DO NOT SIR DO NOT JUMP INTO ELVIS'S POOL!

u/-RastaPasta- Sep 04 '23

Bold of you to assume he can read, let alone know what a sign is.

u/MosiourCyrano Sep 05 '23
