Weight a minute

I subscribe to the belief that there are very few instances in which it is acceptable for a person to not remain fully dressed in a communal gym. I also believe that people should remain full clothed at their place of work. Also, loud extended cell phone conversations are rarely acceptable in any public space... especially if the cause you to occupy the only available weight bench in the area.
I totally win.
He wasn't the only one about to be strangled
So is was sitting in the theater enjoying some gummi bears while I waited for the movie to start.


With plenty of time before the show started, a very reserved and normal-looking family quickly came in and quietly found their way to their seats. They then sat down and prepared for the movie to begin.
Just kidding.

What actually happened was that with very little time to spare before showtime this family with every shade of wacky hair cut (mowhawk, combover, unneccesarrily long braid) slowly wandered in and very loudly debated with eachother over wear to sit. The man with the combover was the only one with any sense and chose to sit apart from the rest of his group. This prompted what I can only assume was some sort of wife or something to begin strangling him.
For a moment I began wondering if this was some sort of Improv Everywhere stunt. For a moment I also considered throwing my gummi bears at these people. The only thing stopping me from doing so was my undying love of gummi bears.
I totally win.

"I'm so bored. I wish there was something to do."

This picture would have been better if I'd gone at it from a different angle and been able to get the entirety of the vast arcade center in the background. It would have been even better if I had been able to photographically establish that this arcade actually sits at one end of a bustling seaside amusement park. As it is, we'll stick with the simplicity of a lone adolescent boy reading a book in front of a noisy ski ball machine.
I totally win.
