For some reason the non-fizzy ones are difficult to drink. Just end up slurping them noisily. What’s with that??

They sell the cans AT the cinema m9

I wonder if it would still irk me.

I’m just easily irked.

think I might’ve had one too many coffee’s this morn

Though this reminds me, on Boxing Day I went to see The Last Jedi in Bridgend, and I’m pretty sure three guys were smoking crack in the screening.

They came in when the lights were still on and spoke to me about where they were sitting (um, the row letters are right there dude), they looked really out of it and were dressed really shabbily, I assumed they were homeless so I didn’t begrudge them getting out the shit weather for a bit. But during the film, there kept being flashes of light from them, which I thought was a phone at first, but then I realised was from a lighter, which they were sparking up while one of them held their coat over another one while they ducked down. Also, one of them had one of those large novelty slushie cups with a bulb at the end, which was empty, and which I’m pretty sure they didn’t sell at that cinema. Occasionally we’d get a weird smell waft our way which definitely wasn’t weed.

Anyway, what a way to spend a rainy Boxing Day, watching a sci-fi epic while high as balls.

Imagine being irked at someone else quietly enjoying a can of craft beer at the cinema. Imagine it!

Oh I’m irked right now!!!

In the screening there was a couple sharing a fucking bag of doritos. So fucking loud. I was fuming, @TontonZolaMoukoko can testify how close I was to saying something

Fucking hell can you imagine how fucked off I’d have been?

Drank four cans of craft beer in the cinema when I saw ‘The Last Jedi’ for the second time. I’m sure P-Niks would have attained 4x Irkage had she been there.

I’d need more than 4 cans to watch that crock of shit, mate

I think it’s because I’d assume you were gonna get up constantly to go to the loo, which would irk me.

However, in my heart I know that really I would like everyone to have a lovely time whatever they’re doing, and if that means a bag of cans at the cinema, then so be it.

In another “school trip to the theatre” story, we went to see Romeo and Juliet (this time with the English department) and a boy in the class started choking on a packet of doritos during it. It lasted for ages, until a teacher took him out of the venue.

I am a conscientious cinema drinker and always sit in the closest seat I can to the door at the end of the row. Maximum two pisses per film as I know how annoying that’d be.
