I went to watch The Dark Knight Rises at the Century 16, and ended up dragging my friend's lifeless body out of the theater after he was shot.

I was just watching Parasite Eve in my basement all alone in the dark, and at the part where Eve comes up though the sink drain in the hospital room a giant ass monster spider started crawling up my leg..

I remember going to see LotR: Return of the King and the guy next to me kept going, "You can do it Frodo" whenever there came that Frodo was in danger. He was getting into the movie, jumping and leaning toward the screen and all. It was pretty funny. He didn't seem autistic but more-so lacking in the department of "I give a shit what other people think".

I can see how that would be awkward.

"Divine Secrets of the Ya-Ya Sisterhood"

i'm sorry, but your avatar is perfect for that story

Are you serious or just making this up? if so I'm sorry for your lose, if not, thats not funny and it was a horrible tragedy.

This made me laugh and so did me telling my brother through a message I sent him. On the message it seemed hilarious but it really wasn't. It was not a talk out loud but more of a agreement moan. I really thought the person ahead of me at first was getting a hand job, then realized it was behind me. So I thought, well he can't last forever, he could be getting head, this may be their fetish and it will be over soon. Well it wasn't and when I got up it was clear he was alone and had no hands in his pockets or anything. I was going to say something and then felt like maybe it wasn't a good idea. However i tried to ignore him but it just wouldn't work. I think others around me where having a rough one dealing with the guy too. I was hoping they where not thinking it was me.

However I will be sure to move if this happens again. I really hope my godzilla viewing isn't this bad.

When I have friends hanging out I will be using  your punch line. "You can do it frodo". Almost want to pop in the move and do it to them, specially my buddy that drinks and asks non-stop questions when we watch movies. Drives me nutz.

He will be like, Who's that hour in the movie and it's the main fucking character. LOL It's fucking Tom Hanks man, WTF!

theres alot of legitimate illness's out there that lack awareness...

Such as someone mentioned Tourette's, which causes involuntary 'twitches' so to speak. I used to work with a guy who had a mild version of this who would randomly making a barking noise. There is a girl who I work with now who has a similar condition, though she doesnt make noise she is unable to remain still and constantly twitches (a bit like she received a small electric shock every few seconds)

Having watched various programs on these kind of issues my first thought if a person was doing as you say would be he cant help it and there is probably an underlining condition causing it. It may be a distraction to others watching the movie, but its not his fault and I do believe in equality, treating others with dignity, and if he wants to go watch a movie and cant help doing that thats his right which I fully support.

Well I can tell you now that I'm 31.

Don't worry most of those cool kids become total losers. I grew up with a over wieght sister and she got picked on a lot.   I never really got picked on and I guess i may have been part of the cool club but never shied from new people or different personalities. When i got older I fucked up a few of my sisters Arch enemies and always standed up for people getting picked on.

I was raised to stand up for the person less fortunate or teased, also my sister coming home crying made me very sad as a kid and eventually mad, I hated it. So when I got old enough I let it be known shit was not cool anymore. They got the message. By highschool I hung with a group that was well respected and stuck up for others.

Not sure how many schools have a crowd like this but I hope we made people feel better.  However most of the cool kids fuck each other over and are full of selfish needs. A lot of the so called nerds tend to stick together through life, maybe not all the time but it seems their ties last longer.  My neighbor and I are still really great friends and he was picked on too, he was also 3 years older then me, Not only that but when I got into drugs and lashed out from a very disfunctional family, he was always there. Always.

he kept me from doing many of the things my other friends got into, like hard drugs.  I did do acid, ecstasy, Special K for a little while but went straight around 20. however most of that crowd went to, Crystal meth, Coke, Heroine, you name it.  Now the drugs I did where bad enough. I did loss a few of them and a big portion turned around their lifes oddly enough. Some are lost for good or have bad families lifes with lots of problems.

Moral of the story is, the cool kids usually get it wrong. It's the ones that get teased and mocked that succeed or at least care for people. Not all the time but in my case it is what happened.

So don't worry, your parents are great for wanting to spend time with you and you will look back with pride. Don't worry about the cool kids. Not sure of your age now but keep up the grades, hard work and push forward. It will get better, it always does. It's all perception my friend.
