Went to see the Chipmunk movie today and got a family kicked out

    Sorry but I don't live in the penitentiary I live in the real world. Rulebreakers and malcontents cannot terrorize the rest of us without some consequence.

    You'll be lucky if you don't get shanked.

  • Steve. I'm glad you did what you did. If more people complained, then maybe things would be better for all of us. I'm really surprised the employees had the balls to throw them out. Good for them.

    This reminds me of when you go to the grocery store and parents allow kids to grab like fruit from the produce section, or items like popcorn chicken from the deli, or candy and they eat it as the parents "shop," then they leave the empty carton on the shelves before they go check out. Free meal for the family and runs the prices up in the store for the rest of us. I understand times are hard for many people, but that's just simply wrong, and it infuriates me. Saw it just yesterday. Family had BBQ sauce smeared across their faces from the BBQ boneless wings in the deli. Just shoveling it all in...rant

    There is a huge difference between what you describe and bringing food into a movie theater. Two completely different situations.

    That's why I said "This reminds me..."

    Not saying it's the same, heck, taking food/drink in a movie theatre is no different than taking water that hasn't been opened into a USC game, which is allowed. The people were deserving of being tossed for talking out loud during the movie, as it was very rude and seems to have continued. I think the gist of the thread is people who make things that shouldn't suck, suck for others, with no regard to how or who they affect.

    Another example is when we have a performance at my school and we as a staff clearly announce for parents to NOT stand up in front of others to take pictures or video, yet as soon as the music starts, it's on, and the poor folks who do as we ask don't get to see and enjoy it because of those who know what they're doing is wrong, yet don't GAS. If I wouldn't lose my job, I'd become a bouncer with the flick of a switch.

  • I had a guy call me out for texting during a kids movie. In a 300 person theater, WGAS if I am texting or reading TBS during whatever garbage is spewed out in RIO? Why is texting a big deal? I agree about talking, either to each other or on the phone, but if texting bothers you then get a life.

  • The silly season seems to start earlier every year (and always seems to be led by the same folks).

    Maybe it just seems that way since our bowl game is a little later this year

    These people were talking the whole first half of the movie. The dad had his phone open and was texting the whole time. But when I saw the mom pull some twizzlers and reeces pieces out of her purse that she smuggled in, that was the last straw. I snitched to an usher and they were ejected. The lady swung her fake Coach purse at the usher when he tried to look inside for outside food. Hilarious.

    You really want to brag on a message board you got a family kicked out of a movie? That's just weird and creepy as hell on top of that.

  • Can we please keep these high school troll threads on TOS main board where they belong? For all of you that don't know this poster starts these juvenile threads several times a day on TOS. I just assumed he had enough respect for fellow Gamecock fans not to bring that crap over here.

  • I am the proud parent of three sons. Ages 22, 20 and 14. I miss the days we went to the movies. However, I taught my boys to behave and have respect for others. They knew when we went anywhere if they did not behave we would leave. No questions asked and no second chances. I had to walk the walk and I remember the time in a restaurant where they refused to settle down and I then asked the waitress to pack our food to go and we proceeded home. They knew I meant business. I did not have any future problems.

    This board was great before the trolls found out about it. Now the info is still top notch best in the biz but the board isn't near as fun . A lot more info used to be posted as well. Now we have threads like this one.

    Whatever. If they wanted to disturb other moviegoers in the cinema with their loud talking they should have waited for the DVD. I feel like I did a public service by exposing these rulebreakers.

    As much as i want to hate you, statements like this make me really like you. Do you sleep on your stomach?

    I actually found this thread more entertaining than hearing how fat some people are. I'm just glad that the funny hahas have stopped sending each other PMs about their golf games on the message board.

  • Taking your own candy and popcorn to the movies is like buying ribeyes and crabcakes with food stamps.

    just b/c you suck at golf and can't drive the ball 340 yards doesn't mean you should hate on all us who can and like to gloat with each other about our awesomeness.
