I can't believe there's actually people like this

I went with my wife to see the new Bill Murray movie Broken Flowers, and a little bit into the movie I hear a vibrating noise from a phone about two seats to my left. The woman who owns the purse starts messing around in here purse, obviously to turn off her phone. But then she grabs the phone, opens it up and whispers, "hello?"

So I'm sitting there with my jaw dropped, and she continues to have a short whispered conversation, eventually telling the person on the other line that she's in a movie and has to go.

I can't say I'm too upset about the incident, it was much more entertaining than the movie.

To your point, I can't blame her for having a conversation during that god-awful movie.

I watching a movie once. I grabbed my drink and started taking big gulps. The 18 year old kid next to me started to stare at me. I was like "WTF is wrong with you?". He turned away and didn't say a thing. Then I realized, I never bought a drink.

Easily the best story so far.

No, we just watched the rest of the movie without saying a word. I was too embarrassed and apparently he was too scared, wierded out or something.. I think he got up and left a little bit early.

My rude cell phone behavior story doesn't take place in a movie theater but it's along the same lines. It's nearing the end of the semester in my Business Communications class and it's time for group presentations. I'm sitting there, pretending to pay attention to some boring, half-assed presentation like any good student would when a cell phone starts ringing. Nothing new, it happens fairly often. But this time is different. I hear "Hello? . . . This is not a good time," and turn to see who the [censored] is. I look in time to see the person leaving the room to continue her conversation. It was the [censored] teacher! The door shuts and the whole class is completely dumbfounded. The kids giving the speech stop, and everyone just sits in silence looking at each other for about a minute. The teacher returns, says "I'm sorry" and asks the group to continue. Easily the most rude cell phone behavior I've ever seen.

whatever, someone discretely and promptly telling someone on the phone that they are in a movie, is about as rude as some fat bitch turning around and rudely telling someone to get off the phone. Either way, two wrongs don't make a right, and I said earlier I don't give a [censored]

If you want to be "discrete", turn your friggin phone off. Why do people feel such a need to be 100% available for any random conversation at any point in the day? It's like most people think that tragedy will strike if they're out of mobile contact for 2 hours. What the hell could be SO important that you absolutely MUST answer EVERY call IMMEDIATELY?

People greatly overestimate how important they actually are. Call them back later and stop being a selfish ass. Manners people, I grew up learning them. It's not too late to learn, for most of you anyway.

Btw, if someone yelled at me after I told him to turn his phone off, I'd punch him square in the face. I guess they can call that "mobile rage" or something.

I've seen students answer their phone in class and not leave the room for the conversation. The teacher just stopped and stared, I don't think it had ever occurred to her that it could ever happen.
