What shit state do you live in?

That's not actually a thing, though, right?

I believe this is not bait, read about it somewhere

>>51023853
Why not? They serve booze and gourmet food.

The best way to start the night.

>>51023853
I did 2 weeks ago, might go again tomorrow to watch the new James Bond movie if its out.

Why would you actually go to the cinema alone? I mean, you seem to own a computer, and it seems to have a display and an Internet connection.

>>51023125
It's called a no singles policy.

It's actually quite common since lone males rarely buy things anyway. It started in bars, but more places are doing it now because there's an alleged drop in crime and being single or alone isn't a protected class.

There are no singles policies all around British cinemas.

>>51024567
Yeah I felt weirdly at home when I went to the movies in bongland, only weird thing was the lack of bird cages above the seats

>>51024567
I've never heard of something like this before, but I suppose it makes sense.

My local cinema underneath my apartment is pretty great, though I haven't decided to venture out and try other ones.

Autism is crippling

Single dudes are the ones shooting up theaters so I guess it kinda makes sense

Of course I did I'm not a poor jobless NEET failure. Gave him the standard 75%. At the end of the movie I spoke with the manager about it and got a coupon for some free live mice on my next visit.

Not illegal in my state, but last time I went to the theater solo, I had a group of teenagers laugh at me, kick my seat, and throw popcorn in my hair for 30 minutes before I left in shame not even halfway through the movie.

Beta uprising when?

Is "bird cage" some weird slang or do you literally have birds above the seats at theatres in America?

Nice dubs

I "screamed" at some teenagers in the local cinema two weeks ago when they wound't shut up during the movie. Everyone else was in agreement when I spoke up.

>>51023068
It's a federal law

>>51025777
bird cages are very popular in American theatres in the south
the pigeons keep the flies from buzzing while you're trying to watch a movie.
the shit sucks though sometimes

>>51025894
>the shit sucks though sometimes

just wear a raincoat dude

or are those banned in your state?

>>51025777
A lot of public business keep birds around to eat insects. Airports all do.

Many outdoor malls or amusement parks keep cats for the same reason

>>51025894
That's absurd.

>>51025999
Here in Florida raincoats are kosher but dusters have been technically illegal since Columbine

>>51025999
Don't know about him but raincoats have been made illegal here in Wisconsin. You can wear a rain cape or use an umbrella but you need a license.

>>51025999
most people get annoyed at your bright they are. plus i don't want to seem intolerant to birds rights or i might get thrown out

>>51026086
It's pigeons or mosquitos

Dengue Fever is actually not uncommon along the Gulf Coast, and birds are used because it's illegal to spray aerosol pesticides in enclosed public spaces

>>51022904
Did they at least gave you the shampoo and soap back?

>>51026042

>mfw bongistanis live in such an overcrowded socialist shithole their animals cant even get simple minimum wage jobs

>>51025999
Any kind of non-Islamic headwear has been banned here in California. The only raincoats you can buy here have no hood, which kind of renders them useless.

>>51026128
Where can you get rain capes? In Mississippi I've never seen one. I usually just wear an old hat.

The chance of being shat on is quite low, however. It's only happened to me once.

You can find them at most large retailers but they're only able to stock ones in transparent plastic material every since legislation was passed back in the late nineties. Similar to >>51026113 in that full and mid length coats and jackets are no longer legal.

>>51026281
Funny thing is most of the countries that have banned the niqab are Islamic, they are completely impractical and frankly I don't trust somebody who covers their face in a public place like that.

Fellow Commiefornian here. Just a couple years ago it was fine to wear a facekini to avoid the bird plops until theaters started installing that facial detection bullshit on the doors

Women are lucky because they can use those hijab swim suit things. Meanwhile men have to suffer getting crapped on. I wish we had some equivalent to the waterproof hijab thing

I run a service that offers companions for movie going experiences, and thanks to the new Star Wars movie business is booming
PM me and I send you a link, we offer everything from "dads" to "girlfriends", unfortunately I can't post it here directly since it is a felony to go to cinemas alone and aiding these sickos carries a heavier punishment than aiding terrorism

also our "little daughter" service is currently available due to that slight fiasco during the last Pixar movie, don't ask

Oh God this reminds me one time where I left my medicated shampoo at the theater.
