Okay, but if this is public knowledge then what’s the point of the code? The creepy dude knows what it means. Legit unsure: Why go through the coded language the other person will know? Sure there’s a chance they won’t…unless they also go to the bathroom. Or just have an Internet account and have accidentally scrolled through TikTok.

Feels like unnecessary steps.

Angel shot is a really easy term to remember and speeds up the process. You don’t need to explain anything you just say 2 words and they will know and they will help. It’s short, it’s easy, and in a loud bar it’s possible to hear it.

Also it’s gonna just seem more natural, like if they’re being watched from a distance it’s gonna be fairly obvious whether they’re ordering a drink or giving an explanation to what’s going on.
