This story is a odd twist for me.

I am sure I will be killed asking some fool to be quiet in a theatre.

Texting in the auditorium is distracting even during previews. The texted should have stepped out.

The shooter had gone out to ask the employees to take care of the problem.

I have thought in this scenario I would buy a large soda and pour it over the persons head. Then they will stab me to death.

Folks that don’t respond to polite requests for quiet aren’t worth engaging any further. Your best option is to get your refund and leave the theater.

As bad as the cellphones are in movie theaters, they are even worse in concerts (where everyone who has one feels compelled to hold it up and wave it in the air taking shaky video of the same song that 20 people will instantly post to the youtube).

It’d be nice to see a concert and be “in the moment” for once, instead (even at general admission shows) those in the front rows rows are looking down and live blogging it. Worse is when they have absolutely no interest in the open band(s) and use that time at the front of the stage to surf facebook instead. Killing the energy. Distracting lights.

Then again, they can’t do without their electronic pacifiers while driving cars either.
