It was horrible, because at the hatchet scene, they showed a bright white side bar on the drive-in movie screen for folks to take their little ones to the snack bar.
Damn.
Side note, I miss my hatchet.

Re: Shit we hate:
At signalized intersections they often have crosswalks with a little button you push to get you in the queue to walk accross the street. All of this is fine. It's a pretty efficient way of integrating pedestrians into the system made for automobile traffic.
What I hate is when I'm standing there and some asshole is standing next to the button and he/she keeps pushing it. Like they're playing a godammed video game and they're shooting some fucking space invaders. Seriously, you only need to push it once. 75 times does not make the walk/don't walk sign change any faster.

Re: Shit we hate:
I know it looks dumb as hell. I do this several times a day. The only reason I can come up with is it gives me something to do while I stand there and watch all the douche bags drive by at top speed while playing on their phones.Dear Booze wrote: ↑Wed Mar 27, 2019 12:56 pmAt signalized intersections they often have crosswalks with a little button you push to get you in the queue to walk accross the street.

Re: Shit we hate:
In germany you don`t have to push the button just touch it. It works via electromagnetic induction. Still people are getting impatient and start slamming that thing violently. That stupidity pisses me off like nothing elsescream ale wrote: ↑Wed Mar 27, 2019 4:01 pmI know it looks dumb as hell. I do this several times a day.

Re: Shit we hate:
For real. Maybe we need to sport a crosswalk signal badge or vest or something to look official. Or maybe next time any of us sees someone rolling up to the crosswalk signal, let's just run past them shouting "My turn! My turn! My turn!" like a child and hover over it.
Okole maluna!

Re: Shit we hate:
That's hilarious. I never realized drivers were looking away from their phones long enough to notice people like me endlessly pushing the cross walk button out of boredom waiting for the little walking man to light up. I'll try to make a show of it from now on. Maybe a little dance.oettinger wrote: ↑Fri Mar 29, 2019 11:31 amIn germany you don`t have to push the button just touch it.

What about working dudes who, when you ask how they are, always say, "Oh, it's just another day in paradise." Why you gotta be bummed out all the damn time? Get some booze in your future -- it always gives me hope.
Don't worry. We're in no hurry.
