Steff Posted November 8, 2007 Author Share Posted November 8, 2007 QUOTE(Tony82087 @ Nov 8, 2007 -> 10:41 AM) Renting a DVD, and having it skip during the last 15 min. of the movie, making it unwatchable. We never rent DVD's (usually buy them) and last weekend we borrowed a rented (from Blockbuster) one (Mr. Brooks) and it did the same thing. We totally thought it was our dvd player.

longshot7 Posted November 8, 2007 Share Posted November 8, 2007 QUOTE(LosMediasBlancas @ Nov 6, 2007 -> 10:56 PM) People who read while on the treadmill or stationary bike. If you have enough focus and concentration to retain anything you're reading, then you're not working out hard enough. Go home and free up the treadmill for someone who is ready to work hard. What else are you supposed to do on the stationary bike???? I read comic books. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They LITERALLY have no quarterback." How is that even possible? Speed limits. Parking meters. Jesus fish on people's cars. People who go WAY out of their way to avoid walking by me when I'm walking my pitbull. What's he gonna do - not like how you walk and just attack? Nevermind the fact that he's a total pussycat.

That's enough for now. 2 things... 1. You may know your dog is harmless, but no one else does. And frankly, I've seen a number of dogs, including pit bulls, go off on people randomly walking past them on the street. So yes, in fact, some dogs might do exactly that. Probably 98% of them won't of course, but if someone's been lunged at or attacked before, why on earth would they take the chance again? I think you are missing the perspective here. 2. I completely agree on the use of "literally". One of the most misused words in American English. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Milkman delivers Posted November 8, 2007 Share Posted November 8, 2007 Seeing the thing about 9-11 conspiracy theorists reminded me of this one. There are actually people out there who refuse to be organ donors because they believe that doctors don't do everything they can to save you (basically let you die) if they see that you are a donor. A guy I went to high school with told me that, and how he and a few of his friends aren't donors because of that. No matter how much arguing I did, he could not be swayed. I really wanted to strangle him to death for being so ignorant/selfish, but then I remembered that nobody would get his organs if I did.

southsideirish71 Posted November 8, 2007 Share Posted November 8, 2007 QUOTE(longshot7 @ Nov 8, 2007 -> 12:56 PM) People that repeat what a character in a movie has just said - IN THE THEATRE. People who bring infant children and babies to the rated R movie at 11pm on a Friday night. If you cannot get a sitter, then maybe the movies isnt the best destination. I have seen 3 women bring babies/infants into the theater on weekend nights. The infant brought their blanket, and started to scream at the top of their lungs around 20 minutes into the movie. Mom of course staired at the kid, and didnt want to move. Security had to come and tell her that its time to calm the child down outside of the movie. People who yell at the screen. Its a video, they cannot hear your warnings that the killer is under the bed. They are also actors, and not in real danger. The realists, who have to break down out loud in the theater on how X theory is not real, yet a week before they were at the theaters watching a flying dinosaur who talks and shoots lazers. That they had no problem with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rude people in theatres, in general, but particularly these idiots who bring small children to adult movies. If I had the capital, I had a business idea to solve that. Open a nice theatre, one that had a very small bar at the entrance. I mean like one bartender, and no stools. This allows you to restrict the entry age to 21, regardless of parents around or not, if you want to. This eliminates the kids and the high schoolers. But the bar only allows time to get like 1 drink, so the theatre doesn't turn into the Brew & View (which is fun in its own right, but different). In the theatres, have an usher who actually stays IN the theatre, and deals with loud people immediately. In exchange for the extra staff, you charge another 1 or 2 dollars per ticket. I would GLADLY pay it, for a theatre you knew would be reasonably quiet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
