I went to see a movie last night (Once) at the Oriental theater. The movie was good, a bit too emo for many I'm sure (perfect for me). It was about a street musician that hides behind his music. Instead of going to win back his girl, he stands on the street corner and sings about her. Instead of making a record and becoming successful, he plays at night when no one can hear him. Then the story advances from there. (Awesome soundtrack as well)
Back to the ranting.... The Oriental is one of the few theaters left that does not have stadium seating. We sit down when the lights are still on, and the theater is about 10-15% filled. Less than a minute later a couple walks in and sits directly in front of us. They could have sat in any of about 200 seats, but no. They must have made a conscious decision, "Let's sit directly in front of these nice people so they can't see a thing." Immediately after they sat down, the house lights turned off. We then had to get up and move back a row so we could enjoy the movie.
I think most people are a combination of: dumb, stupid, oblivious, selfish, ignorant, brainless, dazed, deficient, dense, dim, dodo, doltish, dopy, dotterel, dull, dumb, dummy*, foolish, futile, gullible, half-baked*, half-witted*, idiotic, ill-advised, imbecilic, inane, indiscreet, insensate, irrelevant, irresponsible, laughable, loser*, ludicrous, meaningless, mindless, moronic, naive, nonsensical, obtuse, pointless, puerile, rash, senseless, short-sighted, simple, simple-minded, slow, sluggish, stolid, stupefied, thick, thickheaded, trivial, unintelligent, unthinking, and witless. Do you not have a thought every in your life like, "hey, there are other people living in this same world as me, maybe I should consider them when I make a decision." Of course not. "Hey, lets sit here, let's not worry about anyone sitting directly behind us that can't see now."
