Are you all still fighting about this? It’s been 2 days, I’ve got the rant off my chest (and free movie passes too). I’m now looking for other assholes to rant about. As far as I’m concerned the Mods can close this thread. I’m done. By the way, I did run a background and found the ornery fuck had not one, but **2** citations for disorderly conduct in the past 11 months. Seems somewhere people did the right thing and called the cops when he was being beligerant. This is **NOT** stalking, as doing a background on someone in Wisconsin is not only legal, THE STATE ACTUALLY HELPS YOU DO IT!! [http://ccap.courts.state.wi.us/internetcourtaccess/](http://ccap.courts.state.wi.us/internetcourtaccess/) [http://www.pac-info.com/list.php?nid=59](http://www.pac-info.com/list.php?nid=59) This is not “STALKING”:rolleyes: as I am **NOT** going to call this guy, I am **NOT** going to confront him, or even drive by his house, and I am **NOT** going to mail him anything. But I did want to know if the guy was perhaps convicted of violent crimes or something. Just to know what type of fellow he is if I ever ran into him at another place. This information is public, and it’s my RIGHT to know! ---

You’re the one stalking–I mean, investigating–him two days later. 😉 ---

Or, “I can’t stop, call 911.” Or, “I can’t stop, please help me get outside.” “I can’t stop, please get a wheelchair, I can’t move.” But he didn’t do that. He just wanted to be left alone, IN THE DAMNED THEATRE, knowing that he was disrupting the movie for EVERYONE else.** When I get in that sort of state I know that time is about the only thing that will make it better. I also become the meanest motherfucker to walk, well, crawl, the earth. Even though he was being a jerk, I can feel some empathy for him. ---

MY coughing is most dainty and mellifluous, thank you very much! 😉 And that’s why they have closed captions on TV, except when I black out and stop reading. THAT’S why they have the rewind button. Nah, I know the situations where I’m going to be coughing like that–I’m a POLITE fat fuck. But somebody who is new to the chronic lung disease world might not be as prepared. ---

,]?t,;;?en I get in that sort of state I know that time is about the only thing that will make it better. [/quote] And that time can be spent outside of a theatre or other public place. > [@](#): > > I also become the meanest motherfucker to walk, well, crawl, the earth. My sympathies. But, why should all the nuns and orphans have to tolerate you and your moods? _Take it outside_. That’s all we ask. You can behave like the “meanest motherfucker” in the world you want, as long as you do it in the parking lot, or just away from the public. **Sauron:** 😉 ---

> [@](#): > > But somebody who is new to the chronic lung disease world might not be as prepared. :rolleyes: Oh _sure._ That’s why he’s had a few disorderly conducts in the last year. That’s why he refused to leave the theatre, even after being asked by EVERYONE to do so. “Not prepared” my ass. No lack of “preparation” can excuse what he did. Give me a freaking break. You’re just straining to find some way to excuse him. Please. Find some other asshole to defend. This guy ain’t your best choice. ---

That asshole is why I am a strong advocate of the “one a year” plan. That is, each person gets to eliminate one person from the human race per calendar year. Whether the reason is for a traffic violation or being rude in a movie theater. You don’t like the guy who cut infront of you at the store? \ He’s toast. The “one a year” program not only would eliminate persistent assholes, but would keep everyone on their toes and make them much more respectful of each other. You never know who has used their “one a year”… ---

As I am occasionally an asshole myself, I definitely am against the “one a year rule”. I wouldn’t mind a vote, however. The top 10,000 vote-getters in the US are eliminated. As I am not a perpetual asshole, I’d be safe. I see a couple of people in this thread who would not be, however 😃 ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by dropzone \* > \*\*No. You will note that I was genuinely creeped out by some of **pkbites** ’ statements. Taking things to a nearly melodramatic point for the sake of making a point is not “trolling.” > \ > The cliche is to “walk a mile in the other guy’s shoes.” If we all did that the Pit would be a more boring place, but the SDMB’s reputation for the immaturity, even psychoticness, of too many of its posters would be improved. In addition, where is it said that we are supposed to all be supportive of the OP when we are in the Pit? This isn’t some dark, alternate-universe version of MPSIMS. \*\* I understand the definition of trolling to be posting things you know to be controversial for the purpose of provoking responses. I will rescind my questioning of your behaviour as trolling, but in my opinion, provoking responses seemed to be at least partially your intention in this thread, rather than simply stating your own opinions. ---

This puts me in mind of a section from Harry and Michael Medved’s _The Golden Turkey Awards_, dedicated to the worst in cinema. Winner of the “Worst Blaxplotation Movie” award was _Scream, Blacula, Scream_, mostly on the strength of the circumstances under which the Medveds saw it, outrageously paraphrased below because I can’t find the damn book: > [@](#): > > As we were watching the movie, an elderly black woman several seats to our right began to cough. After several minutes, a young woman several rows back politely commented “Hey, bitch, why don’t you take your ass home and cough?” The elderly woman, incensed, rose and offered a witty riposte. “Fuck you, bitch!” she declared. Whereupon the young woman’s boyfriend went for the elderly woman and for a few moments, the action in the theater was far more compelling than that on the screen. Order was restored when the 7-foot tall security gaurd came running down the aisle, swinging his flashlight and calmly suggesting to everyone to “Shut up and watch the fucking movie.” ---

Now, THAT’S funny! Considering the prig Michael Medved has turned into, probably funnier than his version. Hey! When are the mods going to close this stupid thread? **pbbites** has said he’s done with it and we’re done with him and reduced to making fun of Michael Medved. STOP ME BEFORE I POST AGAIN!
