Use public humiliation tactics.

Start explaining why you have the "no cellphone" ad before the movies and why they ruin other people's experience

Start formally but become more and more patronizing as you go. As if the things you are explaining should be commonly known by children.

Make sure to also give them a small speech about how it was expected more maturity and respect from a grown person and that following a very basic set of rules for basic social activities are necessary to going to the movies.

Make sure that it's loud enough for people around you two hear it.

I can guarantee that they will never bother you again, or that other people won't too.

I used to work as a mall security guy during my uni times and this tactic worked 100% of the time, although people would get a bit mad but fuck them, I had a police baton lol

Fuck people bringing in outside food. I didn't work at a cinema but at my old job that was pretty much one of like two things we showed absolutely no leniency on.

Most would give it up easily but some would complain and ask why. Much as I wanted to berate them for being too stupid to figure out such an obvious answer I had to calmly explain it's because people are fuckheads who will drop food anywhere without a care in the world and it fucking attracts ants.

Worst part is we had a big sign outside the play area that said "FOOD AND DRINK ARE PROHIBITED" and barely any of them barely read the damn thing. We let most covered drinks slide but people are too stupid with food to be allowed to have it.

At this point it's fair to say it's the theaters' fault. At least in my area. You really can't fault people for not following a rule that isn't enforced.

Directly before the previews start write in gigantic block letters on the screen and have a giant booming voice say "IF YOU TEXT DURING THE FILM, YOU WILL BE EJECTED WITHOUT A REFUND. NO EXCUSES. NO EXCEPTIONS." Then when someones texts during the movie a manager should eject them. The end.

This was around 2011/2012 by the way. Our theater was kind of dumpy so they kept the old tech for quite a while. The only reason they even switched to digital was because they received help from the film companies. Turns out producing actual film and then shipping around the canisters is very expensive, so it was worth it for the film companies to help theaters out with the costs of new projectors.
>>
>>69731876
they don't even distribute any kind of film in my country anymore, we still have the old film projectors but no film to use ever.

I wonder if they still use those outside of Europe.
>>
>>69731867
Yep, it was a fucking bummer when they were up and running. i stayed maybe a month or so after the switch.

I don't even go to the movies anymore because it has turned into such shit. First we're interviewed by the staff and have our IDs checked, then they check our luggage, then we go through metal detectors, then once we've all sat down they give us a safety speech (keep your arms and legs inside your row at all times etc.) that goes on for five minutes, then you're too nervous to focus on the movie because the staff are patrolling around with assault rifles and night vision goggles and dogs and only need an excuse you to drag you down to the detention center in the basement.

The showers are usually out of soap too.

most of the time it's teenagers who do that btw, I still prefer them to old people who think they are whispering but are really yelling during the movie.

Poop is brown because the pancreas releases an enzyme that oxidizes the otherwise yellow bile. Yellow poop is a sign of pancreatic failure.

There’s a lot of stuff in your poop that your body can’t digest, absorb (like a sponge does), or doesn't need. There is water, fibrous (FY-brus) parts of food, bacteria, fatty acids, and old red blood cells from the liver that are in an orange-brown substance called bilirubin (BILL-ee-RU-bin). Bilirubin mixes with more yellowy stuff from the liver called bile. Just like when you mix a lot of paint colors together, when you mix all this together, the result is brown. Sometimes poop is a dark chocolate brown, sometimes it’s a light sandy brown. Every once in a while, it comes out a different color.

Yellow poop means there is a lot of fat in your feces. This is not a good sign. Consider turning this into a positive by making poop candles with your fatty deposits. Yellow poop also has a very strong odor, which will give your poo-candles that little something extra.

I used to date a chick who was always on call at a hospital. I think it's kind of dumb to have a wholesale block because of that. I realize it's a fairly small subset of people. But how about just enforcing the cell phone rule?

I go to a theater where an actual person stands up at the beginning of every show and talks about the rules, and actively ejects people. It's perfectly fine.

I worked in an outdoors water play area in a park. There was a concession stand closeby so that's where most of the food came from but people brought all kinds of shit. Once there was a large spanish family who tried to bring a massive fucking bag of Popeye's shit in that must have cost at least $60. It was like wtf. Who not only tries to do that but would also try to eat a meal that large in front of like 40 people in a public area.

Pretty much. My park water play area job could certainly be classified as shit. The pay was meh, I would be there entirely alone so if I had to really go to the bathroom I'd have to call and wait for someone to relieve me which could often take up to 10 minutes and I frequently dealt with bad as fuck kids, weird people, rude people, and neglectful parents. It was easily considered one of the worst jobs to have at that place and of the 4 people they rotated in when it was open 24/7 during the summer, one of them would always quit after the summer. Sometimes two.

But my bosses and co-workers were cool as fuck because they understood the type of people you dealt with working at a public park. The amount of fucking people who went there and just trashed the god damn place like it was their own home or tried to do whatever they wanted was sickening. We also got free food from the concession stand though, which was nice. One of the perks of that job was getting a burger+fries+hot dog combo that would normally cost like $9 for free like every day.
>>
>>69731016
Yeah but there's some people that army retards and leave the remaining of their food on the ground, or get this, even finish it. Also it doesn't help when you guys don't sell certain foods that if want to eat during the movie. My parents sneak in Dunkin donuts and coffee all the time. And I brought in a mixed nuts and chocolate! Fuck that policy. This wouldn't be a problem if you fuckers didn't also try to sell 5 dollars for a water bottle. Sometimes I even leave a bottle behind if the clerk really pisses me off, just to show them I didn't buy their shit and got away with it

Happens alot, unfortunately. The closest cinema to me always has little faggot edgy teenagers in most sessions in their first week of most movies, so I have to go see them around their initial opening so I can join in the /tv/ shit posting.

I have a real short fuse for cunts who disrespect others, especially when an entire cinema full of people have just spent $20 a pop to see a film.

In the PNW we have weed-vaping shit-heads in theaters. Fucking losers hitting their vapes every 15 minutes and blowing their foul weed-smoke into the audience. Theater staff have done NOTHING about it in spite of complaints. I've basically stopped going to see movies in the theaters now.
