I was at the theatre, In the shortest cue. 2nd from the top. But the rather large lady in front of me was buying 7 tickets, and enough food to feed her rather large family (in size and numbers).
After about 15 minutes, I turned to the two blondes behind me (as I also am blonde) and said to them - "how many blondes does it take to buy a ticket"? We all just cracked up laughing under the strain.
The lady in front finally got the message and eventually left with her hoarde of goods.
I resent the day they combined the food and ticket lines at theatres. I just cant get over how much some people need to eat for a little under 2hours.
Once. I was very thirsty. And slightly tipsy. And very impatient. The gal behind the fast food counter was flirting with some loser babbling guy who game to visit her at work. All I wanted was a cherry coke. She held up a finger, signalling "One Minute," and kept babbling. One minute??? ETERNITY! Phone number exchange and some mumbo jumbo. I took two bucks from my pocket, slammed em down on the counter, jumped over, grabbed a cup and pressed the press button on the soda fountain. The staff went NUTSO, and rightfully.
The server woman person shouldn't have held everybody up with her personal life, but my jerky impatience? Unjustifiable, but goddarn it felt good.
Lauralie.
