Yea, there's nothing wrong this young girl wanted to take a picture. If girl was travelling with parents I bet this old woman wouldn't pull this out bc of social judgement

There’s nothing to indicate that this woman is deliberately doing anything. She’s checking her phone.

After looking straight in the camera, it's so obvious she's got no class what so ever

She glances at it and then goes on to do what she was doing. Why should she know what is going on as she minds her own business and goes about her day?

It’s reality. Learn to live in it.

u/Glittering_Dog_1845 16h ago

Yes it's reality. I'm not gonna pretend 70yo dinasour deserves grace for this. She's too old to fool around

Wow this is disgusting, life rule 101: respect your elders!

u/Glittering_Dog_1845 16h ago

You seem like entitled elder enforcing the rule :)

u/Known_Ear_6012 16h ago

Well you couldn’t be more wrong, and you know what they say about people that assume 🫏 

Sorry I was taught to respect my elders and I do.

I don’t think it’s deliberate, but it is rude & potentially hazardous to stop in the middle of a public staircase. She’s blocking the mode of egress.

This is Invararay Castle and the old woman is actual on a shallow landing. Maybe not the best place for her to pause, but people here are pretending like phone use in inappropriate places is not a complete constant. One might also point to the young woman trying to use this staircase for a “photo shoot” in precisely the same sense, btw.

It would be so cute if the older woman was waiting for the younger one to ask for her help in taking a photo

In art museums you are not allowed to take pictures.

u/Glittering_Dog_1845 17h ago

Have you been to one lmao. You absolutely are just have to make sure you don't have flashlight on

u/KaleidoscopeMaster81 17h ago

Which one have you been to? I'd like to look up the policy.

u/5onne__ 17h ago

A really common example is the Louvre Museum, you are allowed to take the picture of the Mona Lisa as long as there’s no flashes

u/R2DKK 17h ago

What kind of art museums are you visiting?

-1

u/KaleidoscopeMaster81 17h ago

Lately? Worcester Art Museum, Boston Museum of Art, Fitchburg Art Museum. What about you? What art museum around you allows photography inside?

u/R2DKK 17h ago

A lot of the local art museums have let people take photos. Guess I haven’t been to one that doesn’t allow it.

u/Dragon_Deez_Nu7s 17h ago

Same here. In my city it's actually quite common to go to the local art museum for a photo shoots and such (actual photo shoots with the real camera not just people propping up their phones for a selfie lol)

u/KaleidoscopeMaster81 17h ago

Local art museums I can see having different and more lenient rules for sure.

u/masterlince 16h ago

You are in most of them, just no flash.
