Amanda the Great by Amanda El-Dweek for June 17, 2022

No way would I stand in line for an hour for a bag of candy, popcorn or drink. Five minutes is my limit. I would not eat what was grossly overcharged in the first place.

30 mins early is OK. I typically tend to be 1 hour ahead of my appointments (if not more sometimes) just to play it safe with the traffic jams

I’m amazed at a theatre that has half an hour between showings where they’d let you sit there.

I hope you got to watch all those cool, previews, right?

I hope the movie was worth it. At least you had something to do while you were waiting……pop and popcorn.

I hate to think about how much time we have spent in our lives ‘waiting’.

That is why I always try to have a book handy. I haven’t been to a movie in years, but waiting for a connecting bus can get tedious.

The problem for me is if I’m too early the popcorn is gone before the feature starts.

If there’s an arcade, I’ve been known to waste time there. I once got a silver bracelet (I checked) from one of those skill machines and it was worth way more than the $1 in quarters I spent to get it!
