Antisocial scum...

    A few days ago I was watching a movie at the cinema. Unfortunately it so happened I was sharing the row with a group of what I could only describe as juvenile scum. Before the movie began they harassed the people around them, fought with the cinema attendant (using distinctively foul language) when asked to move one seat so that a group could get seats in a packed theatre, be a general disturbance throughout the film and when the film was over, they didn't leave before chucking their trash onto some unsuspecting unfortunate cinema goer below.

    Although I managed to phase them out during the film and enjoyed the film, later it made me wonder what goes on in the head of these pricks when they partake in such behaviour? Why can't they not behave like responsible citizens and not be such an absolute waste of air and space. And mostly why do we as a society put up with such waste of DNA.

    What can be done, if anything can be done, to fix these disordered youth into living a responsible and respectable life?

    Skyfall, reason why the cinema was packed. Or else would have moved far away from those twats. They looked about 12-14yrs old.

    They're young, I imagine they found their behaviour amusing. Probably delighted with themselves at the cinema without their parents.

    "Shut the fcuk up or I will rip your face off, ya little cnut" usually works, but you have to say it to the loudest or "alpha male" of the group. Then the rest just give him stick and it usually settles down.

    I have done this a couple of times and it worked, but be prepared to give a dig if they react.

    Or else sit there and say nothing and get your head wrecked.

    Stand up, walk out and demand your money back from the cinema unless they throw the pr1cks out. That the cinema tolerate stuff like that only gives them more reason to act the bollix and it's up to them to stamp it out.

    I don't believe you have done that. I've never seen anyone do that.

    I believe because the opposite is their top agenda. They're not civilised normal people, they're fúcking scum.

    Good luck with that. They're not out for the approval from the civilized or listening to adult opinions. They live for themselves, their own entertainment and their peers. In conclusion, they don't give a fúck about anybody except themselves and the attention they get / approval and praise from their peers.

    This is why I don't go to chain cinemas.

    Go to the IFI or The Screen, I've only ever had one incident with noisy patrons.

    Some woman, about 25 or so, wouldn't stop yakking. I told her to shut up, she said "Did she just tell me to shut up?", all indignant, then clammed up for the rest of the movie. Good times.

    If she wanted to talk over a movie she should have done it at home, not where people have paid in to watch it. Dozey bitch.

    Usually when they think you are physically threatening them they will either shut up or push ot to see if you will give them a smack or not.
    When they get to the point of whether you give them a smack, you will normally get one who says "go on them, I'll sue ya" the correct response to this is that you have no intention of hitting them, but will kick the sh1t out of their father, this has worked for me in the past :)

    How often do you go to the cinema?

    I've done it hundreds of times, all with varying results, from it working and people apologizing as they hadn't realized they were so loud, all the way to having a row outside the cinema in a local shop.

    Usually people when they see you telling someone to shut up, will join in also and that's when it is most effective.

    A quiet night when there is not many there and you tell people to give it a rest with the chatting and that usually has no effect as you will be the only one complaining.

    Chair kicking bugs me even more than talking. I am so careful not to kick someone's chair as I know how distracting and highly annoying it is, so I have no idea how people can be so up their own arse as to kick a chair non-stop and even sometimes go so far as to hang their feet over the seat in front of them, that is right beside a seat were someone is sitting, don't they know that you will see this with the corner of your eye and so effect your viewing?

    I don't know, inconsideration needs to be kicked out of some people, it's so ingrained.

    Well if they're behaving as such scum at that age, imagine what they'll be like when they grow up in 10yrs time?

    Or maybe I just come from a time when kids were taught how to behave properly in public spaces by their parents...
