I'm not giving up my seat

If you want something, you will have to do what it takes in order to get it. Take responsibility for yourself.

I know, what a novel concept.

Mademoiselle, if the people who asked you to move were over 80 years old, would you have still stayed in your seat? I would have, stuff old people, I owe them nothing.

Honestly colander finding out that anonymous user is actually a 14 year old takes all the fun out of it. Especially since there seems to be some actual contrition.

You’re not very good at trolling.

I’m not trolling, i am just defending you, and I also asked a question. There is no trolling by me.

If you wanted “Christian” treatment, you came to the wrong message board.

Never mind. Obvious troll is obvious. And Stupid troll is stupid.

I just wonder where the ‘unchristian’ comes in…

I love it. Same attitude as in the OP.

So, I went back and reviewed your posts to see if you answered my questions and you had not. You did answer the question about if someone arrived 10 minutes early, but you didn’t answer the question about knowing what their reason for being late was.

Here’s another question: you said they were 5 minutes late but we all know that there are about 20 to 25 minutes of ads and trailers before the movie begins. Were they 5 minutes late as in the lights went down 5 minutes ago and the screen is telling you how much popcorn is, or were they 25 minutes late so the movie actually had started?

Prediction: OP will not just come out and directly answer these questions. Possibly saying something like “well I’ve said enough already”.

I’m not trolling, I’m just posting my point of view. If I was trolling I would be arguing with the op.

Cheshire, shut the hell up. You’re the self-admitted trolliest troll in here, can’t be older than sixteen yourself. Took the liberty of pasting your profile slogan below in case the newbies haven’t sniffed you out yet.
“Interests: My hobby is “Pissing-off” others. I flunked “plays well with others” in kindergarden. Occupation Self-anointed blasphemer of YOUR chosen god, whomever that might be (unless it’s mine)”
PS, you failed spelling, too, it’s kindergarten you dick.

And also, I want to become a lawyer (although it might change as careers are never decided this early). I am joining the Debate Team at my school and the officers there are actually going to put me through debate training.

Researcher checking in!

Glad to know that some people found my “research” (I wasn’t sure if I needed to use scare quotes too. What’s the etiquette on that?) useful. I simply like knowing how things factually play out, so I thought that would be helpful. I had no idea that those who fell on the less represented side would either completely ignore any meaning behind the data or, horror of horrors (oh noes!) laugh at my earnestness. I shall forever be wounded by that and can’t imagine what I’ll do to compensate. I has a sad.

:stuck_out_tongue:

Anyhoo, back in reality…

Actually, I’ve seen it twice, but never at the movies. And for fear of being thought to lie, here’s the specifics:

1.) Many years ago at a live performance for of Phantom of the Opera, an older couple for some reason asked us if my husband and I could move down one. It’s been so long ago, I don’t remember what the reasoning must’ve been, but we moved even though it put the spousal unit in a bad way with his bum knee up against some even taller guy who was more spread out and taking up lots of room. Now, we undoubtedly could’ve played musical chairs and switched me to that side, but we didn’t want to disrupt the other patrons. Bless him, he just sucked it up until the end.

2.) Four our anniversary three years ago, we went to see a Rangers game. We got the cheap bleacher seats, but as this was a run for the pennant, they were packed. We set on the outside (again to compensate for that knee) and somewhere in the early innings, a guy arrived to join what looked like his girlfriend in the row directly behind us. They asked someone back there to accommodate his new arrival and they refused. We overheard and, since there were buffers around us, agreed to scootch together to make room. At least this time, the husband’s knee got to remain where there was space. Unfortunately, that game was still miserable and I’m sure those folks were even happier when we left early and then there was plenty of open chairs again.

That’s all I’ve ever personally witnessed though. I’m in Texas, if that matters.

You’re obviously baiting me, but since others are asking the same questions again and again.

You’ve got to be fucking kidding me.

Very well, I will spell it out for you.

In the OP:

Like I said, people like you are obviously not the kind to actually put in the effort to get what you want. Like the latecomers.

If there’s empty rows, sit in a damn empty row.

Actually, I’m 49. You can’t help growing older, but Childishness is forever. :stuck_out_tongue:

And thanks for pointing out the spelling error. It’s been sitting there for three years now, and I never noticed. I’ll go fix it. :p:p:p

Oh, Holy Fucking Terror
Move over, buffer-seat-demanding-self-important-so-and-so!!!

Read

The

Fucking

Thread.

Or just read post 773. Ffs.:rolleyes:

You obviously care quite a bit about buffer seats, or you would have moved over. It’s common courtesy, regardless of your Judgement about the worthiness of the people looking at those seats. Move over.

Good to know that you can read my mind.

It’s hardly mind reading. You’ve racked up 139 posts justifying your refusal to move and use up the “buffer” seat.
