I don't believe this story OP. Everyone I know just recites the same practiced intro at every showing.
>>
Alright somebody tell me how weird this is, I have no idea why I do it. Inow a more empty theatre I'll sit about 4 seats down from someone who's alone. I'll get up and go to the bathroom, then when I come back I always sit in the next seat closest to the person. I'll repeat this a few times until I'm right next to the guy. I have no fucking idea why I do this, I just want to see the reaction I guess. People usually don't do anything and don't pay any attention but one time some fat dude asked me why I was "getting so close". I just said "oh whoops". What the fuck is wrong with me.

>likes the standing area better than seating?

I hate the standing area but I end up there every now and then being it's easy to blend in and not get caught for breaking the no singles policy.

Normally I don't care and I'll risk it and sit down but my falcon died last year. So while I save up for a new falcon I've been forced to use chicken as my movie bird. I know it's not really fooling anyone but my local theater is rather lacks about enforcing anything as long as you have some sort of bird with you.
>>

>>
>>68922403
>Washington State
That explains it. In other states, cinemas have a instituted a no singles policy at it gets them a big reduction on their insurance rates. While most moviegoers who previously went alone bring others with them, a not insignificant number of patrons have elected not to go which has reduced revenue slightly. To counteract this, cinemas have offered more expensive fare such as lobster and crab legs.

Not him, but mine began circling angrily overhead, eventually it started to attack the other falcons. I'm glad I purchased falcon insurance or I would never have been able to afford the fines. I had already spent the entirety of my pocket money on bribing the penis inspector.
