    Or die trying

    So, I'm sure that at least some people watch "The Boondocks"

    Two nights ago I'm tearing tickects when I end up living out a scene from one of the episodes.

    CW: Clueless woman
    CM: Clueless man
    Me: your hero

    CW comes up to me with a bag of popcorn in her hand , ready to give me her ticket to be ripped.

    CW: Why don't the concessionists put the butter on the popcorn for you?
    Me: Cause that would make too much sense
    This goes right over her head.

    CM: But why?
    Me: (trying to save face and move things along) Cause, not everone likesbutter on their popcorn

    (thinking, why would every single person want butter on their popcorn? Nopt everyone has the same tastes)

    The guy goes wide eyed like I've just slapped him

    CM: Not like butter?!

    dear God, please just go

    Me: Theatre 12, have a good one
    Screw normal. You know why? 'Cause if you're normal, the crowd will accept you. But if you're deranged, the crowd will make you their leader.

      You mean the kid at the concession stand won't put butter on for you now?

        Not at the theater I worked at. The butter (well technically it's "Butter Flavored Topping") is off to the side of the concession stand, kinda how you see the ketchup/Mustard/Mayo pumpers at a lot of Cafes.

          The theaters here will put butter on but you have to request it. I always ask for no butter, I once knew a guy whose sister worked at a movie theater and every two months the butter on the floor would eat through her shoes. Not to mention it gives me a migraine for some reason.

            I love extra butter. I know it's not real butter but it's buttery tasting enough for my brain to think it's butter so I always pile on tons of it!

            "Hi, I'd like extra butter popcorn and where's your butter machine?"

            Did I mention I'm still 105 lbs?

                Because somebody would complain b/c they don't like or want ketchup on their fries.

                  Oh of course! I was just making a point about the stupidity of the popcorn lady. Its as if she wasn't capable of thinking for herself.

                      I don't hate you, EQ. Quite the opposite. Just insanely jealous of your metabolism.
