Don't mess with Texas........cinemas!





Alamo Drafthouse, a chain of movie theaters in Austin, Texas, has long waged a war against impolite moviegoers.


And the latest customer to object to their firm rules against talking and texting during an evening out has become the unwitting star of a PSA released by the company.


The woman in question was warned twice about texting during a screening, and then, in accordance with company policy, was escorted out without a refund.


However, the determined texter was not about to let the matter rest.


She called up the Alamo Drafthouse and left a profanity-laced (and perhaps slightly inebriated) message decrying the theater's policies. "Yeah, I was wondering if you guys actually enjoy treating your customers like a pieces of sh*t," she opened, "Because that's how I felt when I went to the Alamo Drafthouse!"


"So excuse me for using my phone, in USA magnited States of America" she raged, "where yer-you are free to text in a the-a-ter!"


But the theater (and its future patrons) are getting the last laugh. The Drafthouse took audio of the woman's voicemail, transcribed it, and turned it into an in-house preview ....


It's fucking hilarious!

Someone needs to invent a small devise that will interfere with the transmission of signals. Probably against the FCC but, what the hell. Imagine the fun that would be! A pocket sized device that sends a blocking signal just a few feet and watch the person continue to punch in the phone number.:lol:

Already done, although it's not pocket-sized....it blocks WiFi signals too.

If Ice Dancer (AKA Ms Damn Stankee) finds out, she'll try to get Damocles to install one near my router....:lol:
