That’s the winner in my book!
“I wouldn’t be with a guy who made me pay for his ticket.”
She had to, otherwise she’d still be chained to the ironing board.
“I wouldn’t be with a guy who made me pay for his ticket.”
You like guys??? Well Honey we were wrong about her.
“I wouldn’t be with a guy who made me pay for his ticket.”
And on the way home she has to buy the liquer and condoms. looking like this 
“I wouldn’t be with a guy who made me pay for his ticket.”
I’m actually her sister and we’re celibrating my successful operation.
followed by your suggestion.
did I say *omstead *?? that would be instead
So you sit in a darkened movie theater, plotting murderous revenge on a snarky ticketslave because you’re too fucking stupid to think of a witty comeback.

PWN3D!!!
Ha! Dumbass forgot about that colon-capital-P smilie thing!

Reminds me of the time the SO and I went out for dinner one evening. I had no cash on me, and I’d just been paid, so I was happy enough to put it on my card. My card which said Miss Firstname Lastname. Anyway, I gave my card to the server, and she returned with the little handheld machine that you put your PIN into, and passed it straight to the SO. The SO and I both pointed out, that no, it was my card, and so she passed the machine to me, looking a little shocked and a touch incredulous, we made no comment at this point. The SO later said that I should have made a comment along the lines of “Of course I’m paying for tonight, he is my gigolo after all” just to see her reaction.
Well said. Jeez we only have your word for it that it was snarky, sounds like a (stupid) throw away line to me.
You are buying a ticket to a movie not waiting in line to be knighted. The girl sold you a ticket and added a line. You need to learn how to breathe, take a joke and not feel the world is attacking your masculinity.
Fuck IF it was your first date and she paid and someone noticed, would you be rendered impotent?
Bus wife and i have a standard routine when a server or anyone makes a comment about her paying. We grin and she’ll say something along the lines of “He can’t use his card, his wife checks the statements…”
Stops them in their tracks every time.
Proper responses in this instance:
- Witty, smart-ass retort.
- Contact the manager on duty and ask for the name and address to whom you may direct a customer service complaint. If he says “me”, refuse. he’s the flunky working a shift and likely is doing Ms. Counter Bitch after they get off, and he’ll do nothing.
- Direct a letter to appropriate parties, asking for a written reply.
- Come to the Pit and vent and spew, using all known profanity, because, yeah that’s what it’s here for.
In between 2 and 3, instead of stewing in anger ruining your movie experience, sit and grin, comfortable in the knowledge that you’ll get to accomplish steps 3 and 4.
“I wouldn’t be with a guy who made me pay for his ticket.”
The correct response is: “Well, he makes Tommy Lee look average, and can put Gene Simmons to shame.”
I seriously don’t get anyone bagging on the OP. We can accept idiot teenagers and rudeness in society (sad as that is), but a snarky little cunt who insults the customers? And some of you are accusing him of over-reacting?
It’s not like the little bitch was inattentive, or dismissive. She was outright hostile.
She should be fired and I hope the OP reports her stupid bitch ass.
What is this 1950! Who cares who pays. If both people work than take turns damn it. And if you are married then its coming out of the same cookie jar anyway.
She was out of line and should be repremended. And I would like to give her a good talking to. She needs to grow up. Just becasue he has a penis does not mean he has to pay.
Fired? For a throw away line?
A stupid and uneeded line? YES.
A firable offence? Fuck no!
He was going to the movies. Some silly young thing made a comment she shouldn’t have. She should lose her job? NO. He should calm the fuck down and enjoy the bloody movie instead of dwelling on some kind of loony payback.
She sold him a ticket she didn’t cut off his balls.
Quick!! Someone call a fucking WAAAAAAAAAAmbulance! Someone acted pissy to me and I can never think of a snappy comeback until later!!
After reading the OP, I’m not too sure about that.
“I wouldn’t be with a guy who made me pay for his ticket.”
[Brandishing bloody and chunky meat cleaver and waving it about frantically]
Die Bitch! Die, Die, DIE!!
Are we sure he had balls?
Maybe he once had some but gave them away when he decided to become easily offended/emasculated.
I’d take it up a notch:
“You’re lucky I don’t rip off your arm and beat your snide little ass to death with the soggy end, you incredibly rude little CUNT! Now get your manager or I’m gonna fuck you in the eye sockets!”
It’s not what she said, it’s that she said it. Anyone with brains enough to run a cash register knows better than to make rude comments to a customer. I don’t see the problem with being infuriated at a personal attack from a stranger.
Write a letter, VCO3.
See, now this one of those situations where my patented big, wide, gapped open mouth smile while slowly bringing my hand up shooting the bird and raising my eyebrows a couple of times real quick is always appropriate. Even with the smile and eyebrow twitching, people tend to find it intimidating which amuses me greatly. Then, it’s over and I’m not mad any more.
“Oh yeah, well the Jerk Store called. They’re running out of YOU!”
