I DID IT AGAIN!


I  DID IT AGAIN!

I was once again at the movies on a Tuesday night with my girl. We go during a week night so not to run into any gabby types, and the place is practically empty.

There was only us and two other older folks, he was in his 60s, and she was in her  40s, and they were seated a couple of rows back, an aisle and a railing separated us. As the previews started and they began talking nonstop, my girl shushed them, but they ignored her and they continued throughout!

When the movie began they never stopped and, being aggravated, I walked back to them and leaned over the railing.

“So what are we talking about?” I said interrupting them.

“What are you doing?” The girl asked me looking quite surprised.

“Well I figure this must be a really interesting conversation since you haven’t stopped talking since you sat down.”

“Really, really you’re going to do this here, now?” the girl balked.

“Might as well, can’t hear the movie while you’re talking.”

“The movie just started.” She shot back.

“Yeah and my girlfriend asked you to be quiet, but you didn’t.”

“I didn’t hear her.”

“I figured, with all that talking.”

“Were sorry,” the guy said finally joining in.

“Ok.”  I turned and took a few steps back towards my seat.

“And get out of my face!” The guy says to me.

So now I turn back around walk back and lean my face way over the railing and right in his face.

“What?”

“I said were sorry” the guy says backing down.

“That’s what I thought.” And I walked back to my seat.

During the rest of the flick they were very quiet and that is all I wanted in the first place.   Surprisingly I didn’t get punched and my girl thought I was chivalrous.

So that’s new with me.   Nick
