Mrs. Shoe Pilot and I went to see Foxcatcher today. Apparently we got tickets to the special "senile old woman commentary edition" because that's what we were treated to. I had a strong suspicion beforehand that we were seated by some talkers - a 79 year old woman and her adult children. They stopped talking after the "No Talking Zone" bumper right before the movie, but then the last 15 minutes they wouldn't shut the fuck up.

I turned around and gave them the stink eye. They called me an asshole after the movie was over.

Is that a reference to what I think it is?

If it is, I KNOW THE FEELING, SIR!

So your Christmas gift to them was only beating them half to death in the parking lot with a tire iron, yes?

You and your wife should've started a commentary of their commentary.

Maybe if we didn't speak fluent English and didn't understand the "Seriously, shut up" clips that the Alamo Drafthouse plays before EVERY movie we would have. Or, maybe if we were assholes and just didn't care.

But, neither of those conditions are true.

Are you implying two wrongs don't make a right?

correct. but 3 rights do make a left.

Actually, what I really wished was that I could summon marriage-ending ass gas on command. I'd have loved nothing more than the fog them out.

Oh, but you are quite mistaken, my dear. I have the heart of an innocent child.

In a jar. On my desk.

I had that happen once. Couple sitting next to me were having a conversation before the movie... which was fine.

But then they didn't stop after the movie started.

After a minute or two in, I said "Do you mind having the conversation after the movie or outside the theatre?"

That shut them up... but then the guy started breathing abnormally heavily through his nose.

After a minute of that, I said "What's with the heavy nose breathing?"

Then he cut that out and there were no disturbances after that.

Some people are fucking clueless and think they can just act like they're in their own living room while at the theater.

What part of the heart has cockles? What do cockles look like?
