  1. What's popcorn worth when only half of it pops?

    1. @adiwan Nothing, it is worthless.

      Better bring out the laser http://rainbowdash.net/url/874419

      1. @drinkingpony I use a "hot air blower" kind of popcorn machine because I don't like greasy or oily popcorn and a laser is not yet in my possession. Some day I build myself a CNC router with the option to put a 40W laser on it

    2. @adiwan Ammunition against chatty moviegoers.

      1. @scribus A very compelling argument but I'm not that guy who throws around stuff and makes the jobs of the movie theater personnel worse.

        1. @adiwan Are you referring to the theater experience that for no properly explainable reason whenever I go to such places I always get home a few CM taller ?

          1. @drinkingpony Next time look under your shoes for sticky popcorn.

            1. @adiwan and gummy bears, and coca cola lids, and taffee, and cookies, and cupcakes, and sushi, and soft pretzels, and banana & Peanutbutter, and yoghurt, and ( melted ) ice cream, and Starmix, Heck I once exited the cinema with almost a complete pizza stuck under there.

              ... I am no longer fans of such places...

              1. @drinkingpony One time, I had a small child stuck to my boots!

                1. @scribus ... Intentionally ? I mean the underside of my shoes get awfully sticky at such places, and sometimes you just want to make sure the noizemakers stop by kicking the noizemakers.

                  "I swear I did not know it was a child, I thought it was someone with Dwarfism. Why would you take someone of about 12 to the Wolf of Wall Street ?"

                  Heheh, my imagination is running overtime now.

        2. @adiwan Fair point. I don't actually hurl things, either, but more out of concern for innocent bystanders.
