Humans used to get on ships and sail away, perhaps never to be heard from again. We can absolutely survive several minutes of confusion around eating arrangements. "Text me when you get there." Let's all just calm down and live with a little uncertainty

Go for it but don't force it on me.

    There will always be other places that don’t care.

    But I think it’s okay to appreciate the world around you and spend time being present while waiting for someone. We used to do this all the time. People watching is fun.

      Yeah there'll be others sure.

      There's another aspect: these days most people don't like being told what to do. When it infringes on other people's lives like making photos I understand but anything else nope.

      I couldn't imagine working in an army either. I'd never let them get away with barking at me.
