"National Treasure" was a really good movie. Devin and I went to see it on
Saturday night when we wanted to get out and just do something mellow. I
guess that is impossible though. I knew Friday night that it would be a bad
idea to go to the movies beause all of the little 13-15 year old crowd
would be there acting like they are the shit and being particularly
annoying. I guess I didn't think about that for Saturday, but at least it
didn't turn out too badly. There were a ton of people there who were going
to see the same movie we were. Because there were so many people and
because we got there a little early, we had to wait in a line with a bunch
of people who obviously didn't have ears. The ticket taker (who I think
lives off of being able to tell people what to do, it can be seen when he
smiles) asked everyone to give way to the bathroom so the people exiting
their showings could go take a piss and get rid of all the soda and popcorn
they consumed during the film. I tried to move a bit so people could get
in, but the rest of the line refused to move, so me moving made not much
difference at all. Just beside the line there was a bench some people were
sitting on. A woman came up and saw a jacket laying on the bench and said
"I think that is my child's jacket, he lost his and can't find it." The man
sitting on the bench said that it didn't belong to his offspring, so it
must belong to her's. The woman took the jacket and said that if they find
his or it isn't his they'll just have another one. Well, about 5 minutes
later another woman walks up and says that her child left his jacket laying
on that particular bench. The man apologizes and said that another woman
came by earlier and picked it up for her child. Now, my question is, why
are all of the children leaving their jackets on this bench outside of the
bathroom? Why didn't the child take the jacket into the bathroom with them
or into the movie or wherever they came from? Why didn't the parent have
the child retrieve the jacket when they realized it was missing, or why
didn't the parent or both of them? I guess this goes to show that some day
those children will be missing and the parents will just hang the extra one
they pick up in the closet too. ____________________ "People always say what we are looking for is a meaning for life…I don't

Perhaps I should have placed this in the workplace idiots forum? I didn't
feel it applied because I am just as Kira puts it a "Starving Artist
Extrordanaire" at the moment so they aren't my workplace idiots. Yes, I
can see how the title could be misleading Palle Face. But it sure draws
the readers in doesn't it? ____________________ "People always say what we are looking for is a meaning for life…I don't

i missed the in the closet bit. i was looking forward to a manic diatribe
against all the 13-15 year olds in the cinema and how you would hang
them.
there must be a chain of small childrens coats, one loses theirs so their
parents steal the next and so on. eventually nobody will have their
original jackets.
i agree though. people are dumb and coats should not be left lying in
stupid places. ____________________ Eritis sicut Deus scientes bonum et malum.

perhaps they wont take their jackets in to the bathroom, because if the do,
they get confused and piss on the jacket instead.
or perhaps the first lady were lying. people do that all the time. |
