I've been working on my first rant for my buddy Peter's "peopleihate" blog. It's a joint effort production by a number of people to catalogue (hopefully in some sort of interesting way) all the crap in the world that pisses us off. Perhaps it's a useless or uninteresting endeavour, but at least it helps us feel like we're doing something about all the idiocies of the world.

Perhaps I shouldn't spoil it (heh - like you're going to read it!), but my first entry is about moviegoers. The interesting thing is that I realize that there is an underlying theme to any rant I may make, which is making me wonder if I should just redo my entry to better align it with the key topic, and just be done after that one entry? But that would be no fun...

The problem I have with moviegoers is actually only with some of them. The ones who talk, jump up and down 50 times to get popcorn, candy, go to the bathroom, etc. Generally, the problem is one of a lack of respect for others, and it is the main problem I have with most of the people in society.

People that cut you off in traffic, don't signal, people who stop right in front of you, park their buggies in the middle of the aisle at supermarkets, people who demolish public washrooms, litter, ... you get the idea. People who break into your car and steal your lunch and your underwear!!

All in all, it's a tough world out there - full of people with whom I really don't wish to deal. It's Friday, such as it is; I need to chill!

~until tomorrow when the hatred of moviegoers will be renewed in your mind.
Personally, I am torn between ranting and therapudic ponderances. The lines becomes fuzzy, and the energy I recieve from the latter is much more conducive to inner-peace.
*shoulder shrug*
it is nice to read your voice again busy boy

-sigh of relief-

In your rant, you didn't mention people "making out" at the movies.

Davin and I are still safe then! We're going to one tomorrow so rest assured, we can continue in our merry making out way. :P

Mina,
For one, maker-outers are usually quiet and inoffensive (at least in the dark!), and for two, if I hated maker-outers, I'd have to hate myself too! :0

Hope you had fun...
