I hate you.

I hate you you thoughtless stupid woman.

I hate you because you have lost interest in a plot so basic and formulaic that you could build the sets from the empty carrtons of slim fast and ding dongs that you have to wade through to make sure no one has changed your facebook status to repulsed.

I hate you because you surround yourself like jabba with decrepit subsurvient sloth. Your weight and ignorance is so great that I suspect you long ago creates an astmosphere in which such sickly cloying sycophancy could survive.

I hate you because you are emblematic of a bankrupt america, an america of blind eceptionalism,

I hate you so much that I do not care if this goes green because my voice will aggreate and resonate with thoudands to pop a clot in your head identical to the pop in the condpm that lead to your conception

I hate you

Really best to spell check before posting a comment about how much you hate someone for being stupid.

I can only assume that the HERO tag is for the Alamo Drafthouse, and not this entitled coont.

This. If "get blazed and go to an Explosions in the Sky concert" also counts in the "just" part.

I guess I can see how the glowing screen would be annoying, but I'd wager it's a far better problem than some annoying asshole who talks. I don't wanna white knight this biatch, but the theater owner also sounds like an asshole.

Seriously, why pay $9 for a ticket and two hours of your time if you're just going to play with your phone? Moron. Not to mention the total lack of manners and respect.

Was that the actual voicemail, or a dramatic re-creation? It sounds totally fake.

That's brilliant.
 
2011-06-06 07:48:39 PM
That's okay you land cow, you can shoplift the DVD from Walmart and watch it at home where you can phone your hole off and yak all the way through the movie.

/voicemail sender sounds like a People of Walmart regular.

Eh, it's either someone the theatre hired to leave the voicemail, or it's some girl playing a prank. It sounds totally scripted and insincere.

Alamo does not mess around with its "no talking no texting" stuff. There are big (often funny) warnings ahead of time on the screen and a verbal warning if they catch you. If after all that you still have to talk/text you get everything that is coming to you.

She probably got kicked out for the damn constant f*cking beeping of her phone whenever her BFF texted back.

I make it a point to set my phone to vibrate when I go to the movies. I can't turn it off completely because of my work (system admin, on call 24/7). I don't make calls and I don't text while at the movies. If it's something important, I f*cking leave the theater to avoid disrupting other theater goers.

Really? With that cadence? Alright. I think it's a work, but I could be wrong.

Exactly. Is it that hard now for people to turn off the phone and STFU for 2 hours? Shiat, if you want to yack on your phone or compusively text, you can do that at home for free.

It's your average cadence of an idiot teenage girl/twentysomething. Heard it plenty working at a theater years ago.

I hate going to movie theater's just for this reason. You are in the dark and a light goes on you look unless you are in the front row. Talking is more of an irritation but in the end I go there to become absorbed by the film! This idiot just does not have enough brain cells to process the thought that other people exist in this world besides herself.

The Alamo's page says she was warned twice. No sympathy from me.

They need to do the same thing in our theaters that they do in Europe... put in cellphone jammers. They only extend to the theater.

I've thought about buying a handheld jammer here.... but the penalties if you're caught are pretty stiff.

If you have to be that available then don't go to the movies.

From the theater's website:

Luckily, this former patron was so incensed at being kicked out, she quickly called the office and left us the raw ingredients for our latest "Don't Talk or Text" PSA. You can check it out below, or come to the Alamo this weekend where the video will be playing before all of our R-rated movies.

i love these people now.

Not to go CSB, but I do love that place dearly after being there for a while.

Only when you go to movies? Considerate people keep their phone on vibrate all the time. No matter how much you think it does, your funny ringtone doesn't make you cool.

If I knew that a local theater had staff in every movie screening to shut people up and to throw out the texters/talkers, I'd start going to the movies again. It's gotten to a point where there's a 50/50 chance that someone's going to ruin the movie for me if I go to the theaters anymore.

GSB time.

Down in San Jose in the 90's, there used to be a theater group doing Rocky Horror every Friday night at one of the small cinemas near SJ State University. One night, after the usual intro stuff (instructions, virgin sacrifice, ect.) but before the film started, some lady shouted out, "What the Hell are you doing down there? I came to see the movie!" The MC (playing Riff), responded. "Biatch! We *are* the show!"

This article really reminded me of that little bit: The willful ignorance of the woman and the 'FOAD' attitude of the guy in charge. And bravo to the theater owner, here.

What? You're telling me people don't want to hear a Dalek scream "EXTERMINATE!" over and over when I get a phone call? I find that hard to believe.

Oh and this chick is a farking twunt, I hope someone recognizes her voice and outs her so the internet can point and laugh at her complete and utter lack of brains.
