Who the hell stops on stairs to mess around with their phone? She did this intentionally.

At an art museum I’ll often pull up quick bios on different artists or look up different pieces backgrounds. No one else was on the stairs at the time she started.

I'm going to admit I've stopped on stairs to mess with my phone

I have been in this stairwell and I confess, I stopped on this stair to mess with my phone. It's the stair at Inveraray Castle in Scotland. The girl taking the selphie has her phone propped up against a planter. There is also a small but which may be what caught the other woman's eye.

Why do you keep trying to defend this rude person's actions? It's quite obvious that she blocked the camera on purpose.

Who stops on stairs to mess around with their phone? Are u kidding me? People are on their phones all the time. No one gives a fuck anymore

Stairs? Red Light? Non-Red Lights in motion? At the cash register while someone asking you what you want? No one truly gives a damn.

Big population of us are always glued on the phone.

And believe it or not, there's no trial, no jury no nothing. Straight to jail.

People stop wherever they are when they get a call or message, I have noticed

Maybe an old person who is double checking that she’s seen everything she wanted to upstairs before going the rest of the way down, because it’s been a long ass day and once she’s back on the first floor she ain’t going up again.

Who the hell stops on stairs to set up a phone to take a selfie?

What the young girl did is far more strange than what the old lady did lmfao 🤣

You'd be surprised I can't stand coming off the subway and people can't put their phones down just to go up the steps.

That being said, this was definitely intentional.

Isn't that question a bit ironic, considering someone literally set up a phone to film on the stairs?

She looks straight at the camera. She knows what she is doing. What a bitter sad hag of a person the old lady is. The young woman wasn't being obnoxious or inappropriate, she was just getting a shot of herself while the scene was relatively clear. That ghoul ruined it out of spite.

u/poopydingdong123 Aug 30 '26

She doesn’t even know the silly selfie girl exists, let alone she set it up to take a selfie.

Shes old, she prob doesn’t even know you can take timed photos with a phone, or that it’s a thing kids do.

u/exodusofficer Aug 30 '26

Really? You don't think she can see the phone screen, the one that displays what the camera is looking at? She stares directly at it for more than long enough to know what's going on. She sees herself and the young woman on the screen. She repeatedly moves to reposition herself to block the young woman as the young woman moves around behind her to try to get a good shot. Do you even know how phone cameras work?

u/poopydingdong123 Aug 30 '26

You all are something else

She didn’t see who set it up, she never turned around to see who the camera was set up for or who was posing, she’s an old lady that has trouble moving and stopped to check her phone and moved to let people walk by. Also most importantly not every old person understands social media and how much young kids obsess over it and post idiotic selfies. She saw a phone and was probably thinking wow some idiot lost their phone

You all are crashing out over a little old lady 🤣

You acting like she walked on a set disregarding signs all over or something. This is not that chicks personal set.
