My kids know better than to talk in the theatre or the cinema. <br /><br />Every once in a while I've gone to the movies with a new friend, only to be surprised that they think it's appropriate to converse in a normal tone during the film.

Do people think they're at the movies or something?

Okay, my sweet, I'll come over for a visit, especially since you have such wonderful posts.<br /><br />Kathy - thanks, buddy. Feel free to print that out and hand it out at events when people are talking. I'm seriously considering it myself.<br /><br />Becky - it's good to see you too! I don't think they were raised in a barn, because farm animals are polite. I think they were raised by unruly wolves.<br /><br />Ms. HP - we are clearly kindred spirits. Glad I gave you a smile.<br /><br />Frisky L - I am so glad to know that even my gleeful friend shares this irritation. Once, when we were at a Sting concert, the person behind me wouldn't shut up despite us asking nicely. And we paid BIG BUCKS for those tickets. So I went out into the lobby of the concert hall and began to complain to the security guard and suddenly found myself CRYING with frustration. He took pity on me and moved me and Professor X to FABULOUS seats. Awesome!<br /><br />phD - your analysis is greatly appreciated. Body slamming...must remember that for the future. ;)Fantastic Forresthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08044290192610027408noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5879347314635530398.post-45878656023458072452009-05-31T20:14:49.374-07:002009-05-31T20:14:49.374-07:00I mean, this is your KID performing, for gawdssake...I mean, this is your KID performing, for gawdssakes!

I imagine it's even worse when you are their to see your child perform. <br />Some people are just so self-absorbed and rude. <br /><br />Yes, it puts you in an awkward position...but she's the one who should feel bad, not you!Jaynehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08031245139089119281noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5879347314635530398.post-75991769700125790102009-05-31T16:41:58.512-07:002009-05-31T16:41:58.512-07:00Oh my gosh, that would annoy the crap out of me! ...Oh my gosh, that would annoy the crap out of me!
