Snoring in movie theater?
There was this old lady who was by herself snoring in the movie theater. She was doing it loudly for a long time stopping and restarting back and forth, but eventually snored loudly for at least 15 minutes in a row. Everyone in the theater was looking at her, turning their head, shaking their heads, clearly annoyed. It was very loud. My friend and I were already on a different row and about 5 seats away, so we decided to move even further like 10 seats away, but we could still hear her very loudly and the people there were again annoyed and looking at her. So I decided to go over, tapped her gently on her shoulder, and told her that she was snoring too loud that everyone in the theater could hear her. What followed next, was that she cursed at me and screamed at me like crazy for waking her up. Then at the end of the movie she again walked over and insulted me and threatened me to stay the f- away. Now my question is, didn't we all have the right to enjoy the movie and not endure someone snoring so loudly? Was I wrong to wake her up cause everyone was being annoyed? Someone eventually had to step up and do it. I know if it were the opposite and I was the one sleeping, I would have said "Sorry, I didn't realize I was snoring", but she litterally became this lunatic *****. So what is your opinion on this, did she have the right to sleep and snore loudly throughout the movie and therefore prevent people from enjoying the movie, or did I have the right to walk over and let her know? I know that the best thing to do if it ever happens again, is to walk out of the whole theater and searched and found an employee to intervene, but anyways she would have probably screamed and cursed him out too. lol Anyways should she have the right to snore out loud in a theater or should I have the right to politely wake her up and enjoy the movie I payed for?
The Drive-In Movie Theater Experience?
...I have heard all about the great movie-going experience, that going to the drive-in movies was, based upon stories from some of my older friends and relatives. Unfortunately, I am way too young to know of this experience, personally, and there are virtually no more drive-in theaters around these days. I would really like to know more about the drive-in Movie theater experience, from other people, perhaps like yourselves. When was the last time any of you went to a drive-in movie theater, and what did you see???
AMC theaters interview?
I just did a movie theater interview the other day and I got hired. I am starting out behind the concession stand giving people food before the movie. They asked me for my personal information, obviously. Social security number, phone number, address, etc. I didn't have to write a thank you letter to the interviewer. I thanked him to his face, in person, which is better than putting it on paper and more respectful. A movie theater is pretty casual. The interview was short and there wasn't many questions for them to ask me. Here are the things that they did ask me though: The questions they asked me were: what my age was to make sure I was of age to be working, they asked me what hours I would be willing to work and what days I could work and what days weren't good for me, they asked me if it was my first job (which is okay in a movie theater because they expect this), they asked me why I wanted to work there and they asked me how I was going to get to work. Of course, they made sure I could get along with people well and with my co-workers because they don't want any fights. For most of the time they explained the rules and what they expected from me and what they needed me to d and what I have to wear while I was working there and made sure that I was satisfied with these rules and guidelines and then they let me go. Probably the younger you are, the shorter and less serious the interview is. Every interviewer is different though.
Would you trade liberty for security in this present day United States?
No. Liberty does not have to be ‘traded’ to improve security. Liberty may be monitored but it does not have to be given up or traded away. By this I mean that a person can still be free to go where he wants and do what he wants but the exercise of liberty while interacting with others may be subject to observation and monitoring by law enforcement so that anyone attempting to misuse the right of liberty to violate the rights of others is less likely to succeed. This has always been a part of a free society. A good example is driving. A person is free to use driving to go where they want, so long as they follow rules of the road. The same holds true for other freedoms: freedom to do business and make money - but not to cheat and steal, freedom to associate and marry - but not to abuse or misuse, freedom to speak freely - but not to libel, slander, lie in court or incite violence, et al. Whenever a free society must confront evil, it must find ways to deal with that evil while still maintaining civil rights and freedoms. It is a difficult balancing act and often boundaries are crossed that shouldn’t and often evil doers get away; but we correct errors when they are found and restore freedoms found to be violated. It is and always will be an ongoing conflict between the rights of a single person verses the rights of the society as a whole. We must hold up and on to the ideals of personal rights and liberties so that that light is shed on and exposes violations so that they can be corrected and hopefully eliminated, while at the same time taking steps to rid society of evil when it is found with as little impact as possible on personal freedoms.
Has someone ever "made out" in (India) movie theaters? Have you faced any problems due to it? Has someone ever caught you?
Security guard while holding a torch, “ye kya ho raha hai” (What's going on over here).Going anonymous for obvious reasons.I was in a long-distance relationship a few years back, we all know how long distance relationship works. Even if you love the other person, you have desires to fullfill.Me and my girlfriend had not met for over 6 months during that time, so one fine day I decided to go to her city and meet her. I had a friend staying in the same city as her's, I decided to crash at this place for a week.And finally the day arrived, we both met each other. As we had no place to spend some quality time with each other, we decided to go to a movie theatre. I still remember the movie was Bhaag Milkha Bhaag(bollywood movie)The movie was 3 hours long and it was released a month ago, the theatre was almost empty and we booked last corner couple seats. This js how it looked.(Not the real image)Source- GoogleInitially, we were just watching the movie and suddenly she looked at me, I looked at her.And it happened, we were kissing each other passionately without fear of getting caught.But then it's life, nothing stay normal. There has to be some surprises right?Suddenly a security guard came and we didn't even notice him as we were so busy doing our stuff. He yelled or more like asked “ ye kya ho raha hai”And we(me and my gf) stared at screen without even looking at him. He left us in that awkward situation after that.Obviously we didn't watch the complete movie and left after the interval.Free advice, just don't do it. Find a place rather than getting stuck in such situations.
How well can surveillance security cameras see in through car windows during the day?
The simple answer is: “How well can a human see through car windows during the day?” During the day, most security cameras would use standard colour imaging that captures the same wavelength of light that humans see, so it would see through a car window just as good as you can.Visibility through windows depends on the lighting conditions on each side of the glass and the angle of the camera. The only difference between a camera’s view and a human’s would be the angle, as many security cameras are mounted higher than a human’s point of view. Again, depending on lighting conditions, this angle could easily be worse, better, or equal to a human point of view. It depends entirely on the situation.
Do mall cops have any authority to stop me in the parking lot (ie. for not stopping for a stop sign, speeding, etc) or can I just drive away?
A lot has been written about the authority (or lack of it) below but I would like to add one thing about the actual “Stop” Signs that you see in Mall Parking lots or other ones for that matter.You can actually totally ignore those signs in almost all Jurisdictions. They are known as “Courtesy Signs” and are erected by the Mall Builders/Corporation. In order for a Traffic Control Device to be erected and “legal” (as in disobey and it is an Ordinance, City or State violation/crime) it has to be specifically authorized. Every stop sign on every road is authorized somewhere in that City or County or State by a specific Statute with a number. That includes speed limits.The mall can put up all the signs it likes. Stop. 15 MPH. Whatever they like. Those are courtesy signs and TOTALLY unenforceable by Police. That entire area…”street and all” at the mall is technically a Private Parking area and Police do not patrol or write citations for driving in Parking Lots. Speeding, running the Courtesy sign etc. You will never see a Cop running radar on the “street” surrounding the Mall and Parking lots that say 15 or 20 MPH on official looking signs. You will also notice that the Mall “Stop signs” are ever so slightly smaller than the actual legal signs. This is because it is illegal in all 50 to erect a Standard Stop Sign anywhere with out the corresponding city approval and Ordinance Number. The Mall Courtesy Stop signs are millimeters to inches smaller but noticeable once you look.I generally drive within their suggested parameters …but late at night driving out of the Movies when the place is deserted I run 7 or 8 of those Courtesy Stops on the way out and so does the Sheriff working Secondary at the Theater in his personal car too….lol.

International Relations: What is your opinion of ITV's recent documentary on the brutality of Saudi Arabia Regime, is it true or distorted?
I am from Ohio and I am completing my seventh year living in Saudi Arabia working in American International Schools as a theatre teacher. I have seen many of the reports of violence and public capital punishment but have personally not witnessed any. I did see a fight once between two construction workers that got violent...but it had nothing to do with Islam nor the government. (Flying a kite at the seaside)I think the threat is there of mistreatment and I do know that westerners are given preferential treatment, but for the most part I feel more safe living here than my peaceful Cincinnati suburb. (Swimming on our compound)There is almost no crime. There is some corruption and the no driving for women along with them being covered with a black robe is annoying and makes feminists of all of us freedom junkies.(Going out to eat with friends)There are limit things to do like no music concerts, movie nor live theatres, and no where to dance...but as far as peacefulness here...the warm weather would drive me away before any security issues. (Vista ng the cold foggy mountains)I like living here...people treat us well(very friendly), make decent money, and very safe. Not a good place to sell drugs, run a prostitution ring, be a pastor of a church...but for an old teacher...I could do a lot worse.
