We’ve all been to the movies and seen the message beforehand telling us to turn off our cell phones. It’s basically common sense at this point, but some people need to be reminded. Recently, a woman visited the Alamo Drafthouse in Austin, Texas, and chose to send texts during the movie. The theater, which has a strict no-texting policy, did not take kindly to the text-happy woman and decided to make an example of her.
The woman was asked to stop texting twice during the movie but was kicked out when she refused. For some reason, the irate woman decided to leave the Drafthouse a voicemail giving them a piece of her mind. The Drafthouse in turn decided to make the woman’s embarrassing voicemail into a video that it now plays before films start.
The video transcribes the entire call in a rather comical way. The very angry woman is a little hard to understand at times, but, thanks to the transcription, it’s clear that she calls the U.S. the “Magnited States of America,” and pronounces the word “regular” as “reglear.”
In the voicemail, the woman said she has texted in “all the other theaters in Austin,” and that no one cared when she did that. She obviously has a warped perception of things, as I’m pretty sure fellow movie goers would be a little bothered by the light of her phone.
