See, spam with a message!
I wonder if this really plays at any movie theaters.

Um thanks for that I opened that page and it aggressively tried to load malware on my computer while my mcafee site advisor went spastic trying to warn me. Oh and then my norton blocked something and I got an attempted attack on one of my ports.

So all in all. That website can lick my balls...

The vid was funny though despite all that :D

I've never had a problem with that page, it's collegehumor.com, nothing shady.

Sounds like someone has their firewall cranked to paranoid...I've got Norton and while it does sound off periodically, I've never had a problem with Collegehumor.com.

Actually, it's like wearing two rubbers so you can have sex with a guy. It's still gay no matter what you think or feel.

Then one slips off and gets lost somewhere and you have to probe around finding it only it is in a very dirty place and your hands are too big and now your girlfriend will never let you go back there ever again... it's more trouble than it is worth.

Nah the mcafee site advisors not an av program it's just a directory of crappy sites that shows up when you do an interent search or flashes red when you connect normally.

That site forwarded (unpromted I might add) me on to a piece of malware called errorsafe and I had no other windows open at the time so it had to be them. It hasn't done it since that first time though so who knows.

They used to have various advertisements like that before the movies back when I was in college - one that I recall was a Western that had the cowboys in the typical shoot-'em-up and some loudmouth in the theater who got the popcorn blown out of his hand in the theater by one of the on-screen guys. First couple of times, humorous, but after that, tedious.

I have to say, though, on recent trips to the theater I haven't seen too many problems with cell phones, talking (and I live in an area with lots of people who seem to be prone to talking during the movie, either with each other or back to the screen), or other major distractions. Maybe people are catching on...or maybe my trusty pocket cell phone jammer/stun gun is starting to have an effect.

I had some kid throwing popcorn at me one time. I asked him to quit it he said "or what?" so I spoke to the usher who had been listening to the whole thing anyway and he fetched security who turned the lights pointed the retard out and dragged his ass on the longest walk of shame past an entire theatre of equal part amused and annoyed patrons (it was an artsy fartsy cinema) to get dumped on the kerb with his non-refundable ticket stub. Who knew running to teacher could be so much fun? :)

I half expected him to be waiting outside but I guess it's easy to talk shit in the dark when you don't expect anyone to do anything. Kind of like ethuggery...

Being an usher in a movie theater is pretty fun. I loved kicking people out and I loved teenagers who would try to sneak into other movies.

I just went and saw 1408 last night and didn't have any problems with people. It was nice. :)
