SERIOUSLY?

First of all, I want to apologize that this post will not contain any pictures. It all happened so fast, it couldn't of been captured. But now that i think about it, i really wish that it would of been cause that would of made it even more funny.

Now on with my story...

My roommates and I decided to go see the movie "Dan in Real Life" (really good by the way, highly recommend it), and when we got there the theatre was packed. The only 4 seats we could find together were at the very top row in the middle...which really aren't even bad seats. So i sit down next to this couple, and the girl is laying down over 2 seats. I figured they were saving for someone and figured out later that they weren't. Anyway the theatre goes dark and the previews start. And out of nowhere there is another couple standing at my feet trying to sit down in the one seat that the girl is laying down in. So i suggest that my group moves down (there was an extra seat on the end of us) so that they could sit together. So we do that, and I'm asking the girl to move her feet at the same time.

me: "excuse me....do you think you can move your feet so these people can sit down?"
idiot girl: IGNORING ME
me: "These people don't have a place to sit, can you please sit up"
idiot girl: IGNORES ME
me: move the armrest down and leave her feet there.

so the boy of the couple in waiting, sits down on the very edge of the seat hoping she will move her feet. Well no, little miss Avril decides to KICK HIM. She kicks him. Can you even believe it? And he doesn't say anything and then her boyfriend reaches over her and slugs the guy, like repeatedly. He was using a lot of colorful language starting with the F-word and was just being an all-around classy guy. So the innocent mute couple i was helping SIT THERE being the peacemakers that i am sure they are. Well i am not that type of gal i guess cause i started talking to the misfits.

me: "Um seriously? What are you doing?"
idiot boy: "I will F*** you up"
idiot girl: "If they wanted a seat they should of come early"
me: "Did you buy 3 tickets?"
idiot girl: "F you"
me: "Should i go get security"
idiot girl: "Go right ahead"

So that's what i did. I stormed out and got the Provo Towne center security guard who was approx 5'6" 115 lbs. And was so pleased that he had something to do. So we marched back into the theatre, me, little man rent-a-cop, the ticket man, and the movie theatre manager. And they were thrown out. And i got a lot of thank yous, and i still didn't even miss 1 second of the movie.

Thank goodness for LONG previews.

thats hilarious, I would have done the same thing, in fact we went to see the same movie on Friday and we had so many teenie boppers that kept coming in and out, justin had the ticket guy come and check their tickets. Movies are just too expensive to have to deal with idiots thoughout them. We loved the movie to...favorite line, when asked what his talent was, "put me down for murderer of love"

The Baker said...

p.s. Mom was always trying to be a "murderer of love" when Justin and I were dating, thanks mom, now that I ama mom I would do the same thing!

Shauna said...

Mom was a murderer of love to you. FUNNY.

Kaisa Bailey said...

that was worth no picture. I would of loved to join in on the action

Raquel Ruggles said...

I can always rely on you for good stories and for some good humor. Such a good movie too. I'm glad you got them kicked out and didn't have to be annoyed with them the whole time. I'm not brave like you and Kaisa. Being pregnant has made me a little bit more forward though. I'm trying.

Shauna, Thank you so much! I am so pleased they got kicked out. I was so enthralled with that entire story, I'm going to go read it again. There were actual punches landing on body parts? Who punched who first? I can't believe those people acted like that! Hooray for you Shauna! I really wish I had been there. The story alone is about the most exciting thing to happen to me all year

Ella said...

Ok, I just read it again. Just as good the second time. So, the idiot guy starts punching that poor boy who tried to sit on the edge of the seat with the skanky feet in it! And he just sat there?! And were you talking to that chick across the two nice people? I'm so glad he didn't really have to "F you up, Shauna!" But I do wish you had ripped that girls hair out! How old were they? High school? Tell me they weren't older than that.

Shauna said...

my guess is they were about 22ish.

Olivia Carter said...

hahaha! Shauna I love it! Thank goodness you were there to kick their butts and I love the mall security guards- they are all tiny men or very chunky men.

Kristine L. said...

Oh my gosh. My jaw literally dropped to the floor during most of this story. While you were reading it, I kept thinking of my friend's roommate and BF... except for the kicking part. WHO DOES THAT? Unreal.

Shauna said...

is your friends roommate a skanky blond girl with a polynesian boyfriend?

Martha said...

WAY TO GO SHAUNA...I love it.

doubleyou said...

this is the 18th thoughtful remark! that is a new record, love. i am so proud of you. THE WORLD NEEDS MORE PEOPLE LIKE YOU!

Tara said...

Okay, you don't know me but I am Kristine's friend and while looking at her list of friends blogs I came across this post. Anyway, ironically enough I was at that same movie as you a few seats down on the top row! We only saw someone come in with the security guards sparking our curiosity. I'm glad I found this post so that we now know what happened!

What a bunch of losers. Good for you, getting them kicked out!
