Press the Button in the Museum

PRESS

A man and a woman stand in a minimalist museum beside an antique jukebox-like object mounted on a pedestal labeled “PRESS,” with a red button in front of it. The man presses it because the sign says so, while the woman questions his unquestioning obedience; after they argue, she walks away and he finally presses the button again, triggering an apparent off-screen reaction. The escalating spoken dialogue and abrupt exclamation turn the absurd museum interaction into a reaction meme about blindly following instructions.

I wouldn't do that if I was you. Why it says... Press. So you press a thing because it says press? You would not have survived the camps. What? Why it's... Dude says press. Go ahead. Why would they make it say press? Press the art button. Enjoy. NIGGA! Whoa.
