Then she can drive back over there and get you the free refill.<br /><br />Please explain this store candy concept to The Pony. He seems to think I'm the only one headed to the hoosegow for breaking the theater law.

They're my next movie smuggle. You're right about the water. It makes WAY more sense to pay that for a soda.

So they took it to their car and returned. Snackless. Shameless.

...Heh, heh. Nor am I sitting behind Marge Simpson!<br /><br />What we call ushers around here are the teenage kids who get a little uniform, and have to come in a couple times and make sure there are no shenanigans, like brought-in food, or raucous popcorn-throwing. They also come in with the late people, with a little flashlight, and traipse up and down the aisle, shining that light to see where empty seats are.Valhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13025832536749983018noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-937038870722238271.post-72396251640202552412016-04-01T17:14:11.192-05:002016-04-01T17:14:11.192-05:00Thanks, now I want popcorn.

I've seen the trailers--it looks funny--and it has the Joeh stamp of approval...<br /><br />What decade was "The Heat" made? Jeezle. Go to a movie. In fact, when you retire, you can go to your 4-Plex, pay for one ticket, and end up seeing all four.<br /><br />I take a bottle of water in my purse. When I was younger, I'd put in a box of Sno-Caps (a noisy snack to mule in). Paying $5 or $8 for a bottle of water is ridiculous.

Never take in cans of soft drinks. They tell on you when you open them, and then when you set them down on the floor they roll alllllll the way to the front during a quiet, scary moment and really could get you kicked out or put in time out for THIRSTY DAYS!Leeniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17655189620056032790noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-937038870722238271.post-7724524031684389642016-03-31T18:37:24.790-05:002016-03-31T18:37:24.790-05:00I've never had an usher (do they still have us...I've never had an usher (do they still have ushers?) ask me to move and I probably wouldn't if asked.
