I was at the movies tonight and this girl got a call on her cell. She acted like no one was there and just carried on a casual *loud* conversation for about 5 min. My wife and I looked at one another in shock becasue she was showing no consideration for her fellow movie goers... So I asked her to take it outside and told her she was being a distraction to those of us trying to watch the movie.

She then tell me "your just jealous cause you can't afford a cell man, get a life" WTF- are they that expensive? My 8 yr old has one; it's only $29 a month and he pays for it! She was not only rude but clueless. Youth these daze.

The proper response would have been "You're right, if only I was a bow legged 2 dollar whore like you I could talk to all my john's while sitting in a crowded theatre...now take it outside or I WILL have the manager remove you!"

WTF? I hate those people so much. There is even a message asking ppl to turn off their cell phone and pager before the movie starts.

Just come hang out around me. Since I was 6 or 7 I've had a REALLY bad habit of coming up with quick witted smart a$$ responses to the actions of stupid people. Cost me MANY pints of blood till I learned: A quick wit is best accompanied by quick reflexes. :cool:

Wouldn't that open you up to a slander lawsuit though?

I seriously doubt it. First of all I doubt if she would know what slander was. Second she'd have to think quickly enough (not gonna happen) to get police on scene to find out who I was before the movie ended since there are no personal records of my attendance. Then she's gonna have to prove that the statement is false (always fun in court with publicly accessible records). After all that is said and done I have a total net worth of around 4 or 5 thousand dollars and make a whopping $11-12 an hour...most of my earnings are state withheld for child support so in fact, she wouldn't get anything out of me anyway.

Besides, I've been saying this kind of stuff for 29 years and the only response it ever brings is beatings (or attempted beatings). Nope, it's well worth it.

Next time this happens, dont say anything, just walk behind her, take the phone away from her. Walk towards the exit, open the door, slide the phone outside and close the door.

yeah!

I first got my cell phone when I was about 14 near to 15. Only as my dad wanted me to use it in emergencies and to contact me for things. I didn't use it much back then. Different story now:D

What a b!!!tch.

Dude, you can get a cell phone for free nowadays (and like $19 a month).

She is stupid for thinking a cell phone is a luxury item....

Don't worry, take comfort in the fact that she'll forever be an idiot.

Her response revealed how she sees owning a cell - cool people have one, and if you don't, you aren't cool. She had probably wanted one for a long time and just got it. Now she can "dump" on anyone who criticizes her use of the phone.

He's a really good kid so his mom co-signed for it. And he never ties up the land line anymore so now I like the idea.
