The classic example is libraries, but ideally I'm thinking of places you can have a conversation.

Interested in types of places ("libraries") or specific places. Growing up we would wander around the local grocery store which was open 24 hours.

IKEA. Just sit on the sofas and hang out

Caves. There are caves all over the place. Bring a gun in case there is a bear.

Abandoned buildings.

Freeway overpasses.

The sewers.

Subway/train/bus stations.

Basically anywhere you find a lot of homeless people.

I had to go to IKEA for some furniture during a hotter period in the summer. The amount of people just hanging out and preventing us from actually trying the sofas was really annoying. So yeah, you can do it but it's a bit of a dick move to actual shoppers.

(also fuck IKEA for making their store into a huge maze where you almost have to go through the entire thing even if you just want a single item)

This is an account of someone who just hung out in an Ikea, no thanks! https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-3008
