A place to post memes & images that won't absolutely obliterate your mental health! Memes must not stray into hopelessness and be generally positive or neutral.

I made this with my kid in mind, so that they can have a good, safe place to look at memes, just made to make folks laugh and smile!

Only goofs & silliness. (:

Yes, I do genuinely agree with you that, especially in the context of this post, most nice gestures like this aren't flirtatious at all. I'm simply trying to point out that there are people who work front line jobs and who have bad days that aren't perfectly attuned to social cues and gestures out in public and interpret social situations in diverse ways.

I just think that the risk of coming off as insincere if you say something nice is way lower than the risk of coming off as a creep and making someones bad day feel worse.
