A night at the cineplex

I had gotten 2 free movie passes at work, never again will I go to the movies. Paid for 2 more tickets so we could all go, that was OK. Then; One bucket of popcorn, four medium cokes, TWENTY-FOUR FIFTY. And the kid sitting behind me, all through the movie... "I'm scared!!"... "Is that a good guy?" Cripes I think he was about seven- doesn't he know it's not REAL? (The movie was "A night at the Museum", not exactly "Dawn of the Dead" now is it??) Geez kid, when I was your age, I was hanging out a second-story window by one foot! He definitely needs a big brother to toughen him up. Or perhaps, a dad? But I just minded my own business and munched on my expensive popcorn.

What really grinds my gears though was the blatant lie at the very bottom of the reciept; Low prices You Can Trust. Every Day. A better tagline might be We know, everything is expensive, it's not just us. Maybe put the oreos back? To which I might reply: I got your creme filling right here, Buddy.
