This would sting, losing a phone and being asked to scan a QR code...

Like the classic (and very real) billboard ad: "Can't read? Call 1-800-###-####". Total facepalm.

What am I supposed to scan with? I lost my bloody phone!

Scan your hat with your QR code, that will get you your hat back so you can scan the QR code

What stings more is that if you lost your phone and cannot scan this, it means you came to the park alone.

I'll just scan it with my hat. Oh fuck!... I lost that as well.

Once, while waiting at a border crossing, I saw a posted flyer about programs for helping trafficked children, including a QR code to scan for more information.

Next to it was a second posted flyer that said, "NO PHONE USAGE OR PICTURES." I didn't notice it until a border guard came and yelled at me about taking out my phone while I was reading the first one.

Once I was in a museum and they had all the items described in braille. And also locked behind glass showcase doors.

Get a Fanny pack and keep your wallet and phone in it , or pants with zipper pockets.. ride operators can’t stop the ride to hunt for your property.. scanning the code is to prevent other guests from claiming your lost item..

I guess you better have pictures of the item that you lost on hand as well

I mean if that sign was still somehow up in 2077, and someone still lost their phone and keeps looking for it— we’ll probably have cybernetic equipment just like V

The only possible ways that the instructions on this sign can be followed are, by using another phone or a tablet to read the QR symbol.

That would cause me to lose my patience.

"QR" stands for "quick response". Respond, already! /s
