How to Survive Life in the Suburbs

Passive Agressive Letters . . . After a Night at the Movies

in Everyday on 08/26/09

Dear Concession Salesgirl,

I respect that you have a job to do. You job is to up sell. Offer me extra butter, see if I want a bigger pop, perhaps I want a combo? No to all. Hmm. Well, Can I offer you a membership in our rewards program? AHHHH. Dear girl…my movie starts in like 2 minutes and I’ve been informed it is a sold out show, I really don’t want to be in the front row..can I please just have the popcorn and slushie and move along!!!

Signed

Girl in a Hurry

Dear Cinepex Odeon,

Your ticket prices have skyrocketed, your theatres are too cold, your popcorn prices are ridiculous. I have accepted all of that. I am not impressed that after paying to see the movie of my choice I must sit through commercials? Commercials for milk and cell phones? If I wanted commercials I would have waited to see this movie on TV. Bring on the pre-views, bring on the show. Keep your crap 7 minutes of commercials.

Signed

Glad I rushed at the Concession stand so I wouldn’t miss these commercials
Dear Texting Girl,

Turn off your cell phone in the movies means just that. Turn off your phone and stop your crazy texting. I don’t need to be distracted by your little blue screen during a pivotal moment in the movie. Sex scene plus your blue screen and doot doot doot. Anti-Climatic.

Signed

Getting annoyed now.

Dear Sir -Sitting Beside Me,

Oh Sweetie. Didn’t your Mommy ever tell about a little thing called the shower? If you knew about this glorious invention and the added benefit of deodorant my experience last night would have been so much more pleasant. Every time you lift your arm to grab some popcorn I gag. Each time the air kicks in I’m forced to plug my nose. You see dear, this is probably why your date didn’t show up last night. She didn’t know how to tell you the embarrassing news…you smell.

Signed

Girl choking on your B.O. that should have stayed home

      Those are hilarious letters! Now I know why I hardly ever go to the movies anymore! At least at home I can get peace and quiet… after the boys go to sleep that is!

      Love this post! Don’t forget those people who put their feet up on the chair in front of them, especially in the summer when you have to look at their bare toes. And of course, those who talk back to the screen.

      “DON’T GO IN THERE!”

      OMG! This was hilarious! Amazing how you just wanted to see a good flick with some good popcorn and you had to deal with all of that?!

      LOL you cracking me up, maybe one of the reasons I haven’t been to a movie theather in years … 😉

      Loving the letters!

      I am with you on the texting. Last weekend at the movies was the first time I experienced how annoying this is. The person in front of me texted thoughout the entire movie! And that lit up blue screen was very distracting! Grrr!

      It’s getting harder and harder for me to go out in public, especially after working with the public. Some people are stupid and gross and there is no cure, at least I haven’t found one yet.

      I’m working on a cure!

      Hugs!!

      You can buy a cell phone jammer on ebay 🙂 I take mine to the movies.

      Great letters.

    14. Brittany says

      August 27, 2009 at 12:14 am

      Those were great!!
      ps. I sent out your cards today!!:)

    15. Amo says

      August 26, 2009 at 10:26 pm

      All of those reasons are why I rarely go to the movies. I am super sensitive to people talking around me and I always seem to sit in front of or behind loud talkers. I hate it!! So, I don’t go anymore.
