I love when rules exist as a clear response to someone's gross behavior. I imagine this sign was posted after a person 'loitered' for a suspicious amount of time, then did not choose a dvd...but everything was sticky afterwards.

Some rules are written in blood. This one was written in something else

Looks like ink. But I'm not examining further.

Understandable. I worked at a movie rental place and people would spend a not okay amount of time in the porn room

He's a fun one.

Before smart-phones, my Dad used to work in a building next to an adult shop. From his desk he would see every customer who walked in.

He realized that there were people who would visit multiple times throughout the week, and leave without buying anything, sometimes with their workmates.

One day he decided to go in and check it out. The place had a "public viewing room". Basically a mini-cinema in a dark room.

People were coming in during their lunch breaks to bust a nut, then go back to work.

Ah, the little known Newtons 4th law of motion:

Public masturbator shall not be able to bust a nut under 1200 seconds.

[–] Opisek@lemmy.world 4 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Might be off by one zero. Or two.

[–] random_character_a@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago

Yeah. His empirical study might have involved just a one specimen who might not have been a genuine public masturbator.

For science, I guess.

Lmao you need more?

Literally 1984

[–] daggermoon@lemmy.world 8 points 3 weeks ago

Is this still a thing?

[–] androidul@lemmy.ml 7 points 3 weeks ago

hey at least it was a group activity, that’s what people do, meetup and socialize in the porn section

[–] ALostInquirer@lemm.ee 6 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Yeah, shouldn't it be at least thirty minutes?

If you need 30 min, you might want to talk to a doctor.
