Movies and TV Tonight I witnessed an unparalleled example of American arrogance

Hammock Parties · 07-18-2008, 02:31 AM

I got to the theater over two hours in advance to sit in line for The Dark Knight. Now, I was expecting a crowd, but I did not expect a ****ing ARMY of people to descend upon the theater a full TWO AND A HALF HOURS before the movie.

I am ecstatic I did not get a ticket to the 12:01 AM showing, because that line was FULL when I got there, wrapping around the outside of the building. The line for 12:05 extended out into the front of the theater, so I had better luck there.

Standing in line for an hour and a half in the muggy heat wasn't great. But what was worse was what I saw when I entered the theater.

Now, I knew I would get a decent seat, and I grabbed the first opportunity to sit down - an aisle seat about 3/4 of the way up in the middle. Pretty good. But then I saw a FULL EMPTY ROW RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE THEATER.

What flanked that row?

Two ****ing high school whores and a mexican in the middle.

That's right. Three ****ing kids decided they were going to save AN ENTIRE ROW IN PRIMO CHOICE GRADE-A POSITION right in the middle of the theater. This was a HUGE screening room, so we're talking like 15-20 seats.

Now, I am generally a passive man, so I did not confront their heinous example of complete American arrogance. But fortunately, the two dudes that were behind me in line just elbowed their way into the middle row and sat down where they pleased. Seizing the day, I followed suit and grabbed myself a perfect seat for The Dark Knight.

Thanks for saving my seat, assholes!

It's one thing to save a seat for a couple family members, but, AN ENTIRE ROW?

Hmm... what's the mexican got to do with it?

I'm not sure why that mattered. An asshole's an asshole, ya know?

The mexican asked me to move over not ONCE but TWICE so his little friends could all sit together.

I complied with his request. I'm way too nice.

Should have sent his ass to the concession stand for something.

Maybe you thought he might kick your ass if you didn't.

And WTF does that exactly mean?

Maybe you're the "unparalleled example of American arrogance".

****in' pathetic.

Hey, I complied with his request. TWICE.

What did I get in return? Nothing.

Man...

You're gonna deserve every beating you (hopefully) get. You haven't learned a goddamned thing.... haven't matured a bit.

No, I just wanted him to play waiter.

I had considered going myself, but I wasn't about to get up with a packed theater full of high school kids. Especially since I probably pissed those little fucks off.

Should have got the JuJuBees or the Junior MInts.
