Wrap your gum you scuzzy morons

[Voodoodoll]

I just got back from my local cinema. I watched Identity a cracking film, but am completely fuming because some chews-like-a-cow moron was too bone-idle to wrap and bin their sodding chewing-gum and instead spread it all across the floor by my seat.

How lazy can one person be? Spitting it out into paper and putting it in the bin isn't strenuous or rocket science. It just takes a minimum of effort; something cleaning my trainers and bag takes considerable more of.

Lazy people: damn them :mad:

Sorry, I know this is a little off topic, but when you called Identity "cracking", were you saying you liked it or hated it?

[Voodoodoll]

Cracking means I really like it :)

Recently, I saw a cover in a theatre seat that said, "Out of service." Which makes me wonder what happened to that seat. In all my years of moviegoing, I've never seen a seat that was out of order.

Either pee, poo, or vomit made it's way on the seat and stained it beyond repair. Thats when we made our seats out of order when i worked at a theatre.

agreed, it sucks when you put your arm on the arm rest and you feel the gooeyness of pre-chewed gum on your hand, disgusting really. And also brings me to another point, why can't some folks throw away their trash (mostly popcorn cups or soda cups)? All you have to do is drop it in the waste basket on your way out. I'm sure the ushers aren't pleased with that either.

Lucky for you the seat had a sign on it. I went to a theater one time and plopped down in the back row, and ended up on the floor. The whole bottom of the seat was broke and anytime anyone sat down the seat just fell off. My friend and I moved a couple seats down and when the movie was over I picked up the seat and carried it out into the lobby with me and threw it on the floor and walked out. Im assuming they fixed it, seeing as how I did it in front of all the other moviegoers. Many people were laughing at my antics but I didnt care. I was pissed that I sat down in a seat I assumed was ok since it looked ok and ended up on my ass on the floor. If I had gotten hurt or cut up or something they woulda heard about it even more. Probably woulda gotten a seat thrown at the concession stand or something.

Well, can't say much more than "I agree". I always keep my eyes open when I sit down, it's become a reflexe...

[Grebdron]

I've always swallowed my gum, so it's not my fault.

It's a sad day when this Lolo has to check her seat before sitting.

I suggest lemon sherbets.

Bloody bubblygum.

Not COOL.

[Damned Martian]

The same fuckin' awful bubble gum episode happened to me when i saw Demolition Man. That didn't make me love less the movie, thank God, but i always check the seat before sitting after that. Bunch of suckers... If you want to put your gum in the seat, put it in the below part of it, so noone gets fucked by you, MF!:mad:

[TheJadedGamer]

I hate Spearmint bubblegum, but that's just me.

[ColinM]

I always just sit blindly and never check for gum like Logan does. I haven't had it happen to me yet, but I'd better start checking, I think...

[Succubus]

There is nothing worse than rising to your feet after the best part of two hours and realising that you've become cemented to the seat with a nauseating combination of saliva and peppermint....eurgh.

But never fear, Schmoes. I'm sure that one day karma will intervene and those slack-jawed bastards will find themselves caught in a web of gum.

As much as I love sitting at the back of cinemas, those seats tend to be the ones literally oozing the most unpleasantries...worst is when you catch a glance of suspect stains on the ceiling...and consequently think to yourself "hmm, I have to meet that guy."

[bowieee]

You guys don't even want to know all the gross things I found when I was a theatre usher.... lets see...

Used condoms (all the fucking time)
Half eaten chicken
gum all sort and colors
cup filled with spit out chewing tobaccy
and more.......

All I got to say is be fucking considerate you filthy bastards ;)

God, when will people learn that you don't go to movie theaters to fuck your girlfriend and leave your soiled condoms hanging around? No one wants to sit down and when they get up find out they have a jelly blocker stuck to their ass.

Agreed. You wanna fuck her, sure, as long as it's silent. You wanna leave the condom behind? No way, Jose. You don't leave him on the pillow at home now do you?

Next person I see leaving a condom at the theater eats the little man juice balloon. And I mean it.

[Jon Lyrik]

Agreed.
