Spotted on Not Always Right:

(A group of annoying teenagers had been removed from one of the screens in the cinema for being loud and causing a huge disturbance.)

Teenager: “I want a refund. I want to talk to a manager. This is unfair!”

Usher: “Well, you can talk to a manager, but they’ll tell you the same thing I’ve told you.” *calls manager over*

Manager: “What’s the problem here?”

Teenager: “We’ve been kicked out of the cinema because apparently someone said we were being noisy and disturbing the film.”

Manager: “Yes?”

Teenager: “Yeah, well, we think it’s unfair and we want a refund.”

Manager: “And why should we give you a refund?”

Teenager: “Well you know how it is… you come to the cinema to have a laugh and a chat with your mates–”

Manager: “No you don’t. You come to the cinema to watch a film. Get out.”

This didn't happen in America (not just because they use the words "Cinema" and "mates").

My wife went to movies a couple of years ago and there were only two seats left - one to either side of this couple. We asked them to move to onw side or the other - and they refused. They got pretty rude about it.

We called the usher over and they told us they couldn't do anything about it. Then we spoke to the manager and she went inside. She came out a few seconds later and said "They won't move. Sorry, there's nothing we can do."

So I went into the auditorium and told my wife we had to leave because that "f@#$ing Bitch" wouldn't move. Loudly. The whole place heard me and they started laughing at her. We left as the couple were sinking down into their seats embarrassed.

Why would you only insult the wife in the other couple?

Because the guy was going to move, but his wife browbeat him into sitting back down.

She became the de facto leader.
