A refund would have been in order. After all, she was using her phone as a flashlight to find her seat. Or did I miss something?

I would say that you were correct Gnu. If she were telling the truth. Assuming she was capable of knowing the truth in her condition.

If she had gotten her drunken ass into the theater before the show started, she wouldn't need a light!

She was drunk? Didn't sound to me like I could tell for sure. Maybe that's just me. She just sounded pissed off. Yes, a tad TOO pissed off and saying things beyond decorum, but she was just trying to find her seat... ACCORDING to her.

In any case, I really don't care as I have Libya, Afghanistan, FuckyouupREALLYbadashima... you know... to occupy my time.

Yup, 100% tru...

I participate in the Washington Post discussions and most new discussions start off with reasonable people, perhaps with different opinions, having reasonable discussion and then the...

...WaPoObamaHaterBrigade invade and discussion is over... All it is is Obama is a socialist, libs are fags, etc... And the more one get worked up the more the next moron has to top him and purdy soon you have them all worked up into a lather like at an old fashioned KKK lynching...

This happens to almost every discussion at the Washington Post...

And it's the same blowhards that do this over and over and over and over an over and over and...

Yeah, like that liberal pinko commie who posted the last post. One of them fag liberal fascist progressives who think Obama ain't a Muslim terrorist and was born in the USA. Did Obama serve in Vietnam? NO! That just goes to show that Bobert is unAmerican and should be put in a retraining camp out in the middle of the Mojave Dessert with the rest of the liberal socialists. Lemme tell ya, you'll get my guns when you pry from my cold dead hands! I say: Repeal It Now before Obama and his people take all your women and put your children in slave labor camps to pay off the national debt! And if you listened to Fox News and Rush and GOOD journalists you'd know this stuff too!

I would estimate that only about 2% of Mudcat's membership fight incessantly with one another on the political threads here, so I think the theory is probably correct.

She sounded like a drunken loudmouth to me. I doubt that the cellphone flashlight was the only reason she was asked to leave. But even if it were, would a sane and sober person leave a message like that where fairly simple and common words like "United" and "fucking" are slurred and mispronounced?

on the other hand, Except where the subject is Chongo, or DougR's goading, I seldom see 50% respond to 2% on Mudcat threads.

I have many reason to hate theaters. One of them is the late comer who stumbles around stepping on my feet and blocking my view of the show that started already. I'd like to throw them out myself.

"she was just trying to find her seat"

Despite in the same sentence also claiming to have texted her way through pretty much every other film in every other cinema that she has ever visited.. I guess it was only in *this* cinema that she wasn't texting but disturbing other cinema goers by wielding a flashlight instead. Not that it makes much difference of course. If you genuinely need assistance reaching your seat because you've turned up late, you simply ask an usher.

Otherwise, her unique turn of phrase "The Magnited States of America" seems to have gained a great deal of fans (some of which are thoughtfully supporting a charitable educational fund in Austin):
Magnited We Stand

Since she was using her phone as a flashlight, did she mean to say Mag-lighted?

She sounds like a tremendously bright girl, doesn't she? Perhaps she will one day run for president. ;-)
