And THAT would be just as annoying as the talking. You might just find yourself the next one to be shot over such silliness. Nope, I wouldn't suggest that either. It would probably incite a riot with some mope thinking a terrorist attack was fixing to happen. Probably best to just get the manager but then would that guy have REALLY learned his lesson about proper movie house etiquette? He'll remember forever now as will the wife, kids and all fellow movie-goers.............luci
Luci, actually my favorite "quiet the idiots" trick is to have a laser pointer hooked up to a device that makes an eerily similar sound to that of a Geiger counter. That way the laser blinks at the same rate as the clicks.
Two rules, 1) never claim to be with any agency, so you cant be arrested for impersonating anyone.
2) Never claim to be acting in an official capacity for a firm.
The easiest way to use this little trick is to make the valid claim about doing research on your own for a paper you would like to submit to some magazine, I usually refer to an ecological publication.
Since, it is a well documented fact that every thing gives off some sort of radiation trace, all you have to tell anyone is that you are comparing the background radiation with an audience in the theater to when it is empty.
I have gone so far as to carry my laptop, allowed the manager to search through the entire laptop case for a cam, explain that I would like to do the check and then tell him that I have the theory that the amount of radioactive elements that we are exposed to on a daily basis would have a lot of effect on the closed environment.
You would be surprised how many people are just gullible enough to believe this.
After the show, I allow the manager to appoint some employee who is more computer savvy than he to insure I did not copy the movie, examine the findings, and have even been told that some of his more 'unruly' patrons seemed to leave during the show.
In this way I am providing a public service.... and if I turn to the person who is with me and say, "man, these folks are hot."
My friend often replies, "Wonder if any of them work at the base, maybe the airport or weather station?"
"All those microwaves, and all that xray equipment they use to check welds on the base...."
"Yea, forgot that, maybe they work in some area that they are exposed a lot more frequently?"
I actually had one very loud, smart assed college kid ask me if I really had to do that (use the counter) and I said yes.
I explained what I allegedly was doing, what I had already found out, even offered to interview him about any strange things happening....
The girl I was with asked him simply, "ever had any problems, uh, you know, with performance?" He denied it, but his girlfriend filled in three of instances.
Twenty college kids left, and the guys were discussing maybe going to the ER......
