I didn’t get the reference either. One could assume the phone ringing was not as earth-shattering an event for Warbler such that the rest of the experience being good would be moot.

You know, somehow I must have gotten cursed into to having bad experiences at the movies. I decided to to use the free ticket I got from tlj incident, and I saw “The Post”. I sat next to an asshole who didn’t think the directive to turn off your cell phone applied to him. The jerk didn’t even put it on vibrate. It rang, twice. He didn’t even turn it off or to vibrate after the first time it rang and it rang again later on in the movie. He had it in the space in the chair for drinks, where when it rang it shined it’s bright screen right in my face. I was very temped to grab the thing and break it in two. Fuck that guy.

Why didn’t you just take the phone and shove it up his ass? It would’ve been a somewhat extreme solution, but I guarantee it would have at least given him a worse experience at the movies than you. In all seriousness though you should take situations like these as lessons to never go to the movies again unless it’s a midnight showing on Wednesday of a movie that’s in the last week of it’s theatrical run.

tempting, but I was afraid someone would call the cops and I’d get arrested for assault and battery.

Basted

Obviously using the word “hosted” in the following sentence confused them. Or maybe it was some sorta translation fail.

It’s just one silly mistake out of hundreds that I come across during boring training, so seeing “basted” instead of “based” gives me a chance to break the tedium by picturing someone basting applications.

Well, couldn’t you remove the battery first?

My baby will soon be entering it’s seventh year. I dread the day it croaks. They’re so fucking expensive these days. Even more than they were back then.

For some reason at first I read this post out of context at first and thought you were talking about a child. I was confused.

Oh hai dahmaged. I know you’re probably kidding but yeah I don’t post like I used to around here. I still read everything but I feel a strange disconnect with the forum here lately like I’m not as much a part of things as I used to be. No real reason I guess
