We used to just have arcades.
On the one hand, I bet it’s not all super loud in that booth. On the other, I’d prefer a blacklight-lit neon arcade to the super bright white lights of the mall’s concourse.
Man I love arcades
等你吧 (děng nǐ ba) - (I’ll) wait for you, or (I’m) waiting for you, possibly punning on 吧 as a transliteration of 'bar". So it’s like “the waiting for you bar” or “I’m waiting for you at the bar”.
Алла, я в бар
“Alla [common female first name], I’ll be at the bar.” That’s an apocryphal practical joke which I heard from a Russian. It becomes clearer once you start shouting “Alla yav bar!” in an airport.

Was going to say why doesn’t he stay home, but now there’s the benefit of him accompanying his wife in the less secure areas between mall and car.
Or mall and the 30 min walk home while carrying shopping bags.
Private lounge
Enough windows to classify it as a fishtank
They didn’t want anyone wanking inside.
I’d be more scared of the people wanking outside
Why then elevate it to a spectacle?

Well it looks better than standing outside the shop holding her purse

Why even bring him at all?
I go to the mall with my wife because we both need dinner together after. Normally I don’t like going into women’s underwear stores/ bed bodyworks or Sephora because if I start wondering, then women look at me like I’m some creeper. At this point I like to go into a fishtank box and play video games.
You need muscle to carry bags after you’re done
Yes, designated pack mule.
If I had a wife, I would want to spend more time with her. But, that’s just me. It’s not like I am ever gonna get a gf, let alone a wife.
Still it’s kinda funny.
If you had a wife you might find that sometimes you want to do your own things but still kinda be near each other, and that’s okay. It’s lovely to have another person in your life you can share shit with but it’s also lovely to be able to say ‘you like this, I like that, I’ll see you in an hour and a half for dinner and the movie’ or whatever.
And chin up on the gf front. You might have better luck just finding someone you like spending time with than someone who’s your ‘all and everything’. Like, that latter shit is unsustainable.
If it’s around the corner from the lingerie store, I’ll use it. Or at least when I was younger. Not sure if igaf now.
Didn’t care then, don’t care now. It’s only clothes and I wasn’t there to oogle anyone.
Of course. Younger me was just very self conscious
Should I invest in this idea?
Would it be broken in a day… Maybe…
Would it be worth a try? Also maybe…
Do people even go to malls anymore?
Do you want me to stream our mall? It’s very active
Nah, I was just wondering I haven’t been to one in probably a decade and no one I know talks about going there and a lot of them around here have closed down
I’d go shopping more. That’s better than doom scrolling my phone, but I’m quite sure those would be occupied by kids.
You’re an adult bigger stronger faster! Simply assert wrist control and that baby is yours!
Kidnapping is a crime.
This is a good reminder of how glad I am not to be straight.
A farting booth.
“Did yoo say zat boof is soundproof?”
That’s kind of a dickish way of describing it but yeah, makes sense for any group really to split up and do their own thing in a space like that.
I’m surprised it’s fully transparent all around.
Every store needs a man zone
