So you're sitting in a movie theatre and you gotta go pee...


...do you run to the bathroom in the middle of the action scene, or do you hold that in knowing that you'd enjoy it more if you just go?

reply

I hold it unless maybe if i'm seated at the end of the row. I don't want to bother people enjoying the movie. Also i don't want to miss out on a movie i've paid for.

reply

Gotta go fast.

reply

Always.

reply

What if the theatre is empty? Is it worth missing a few minutes of breathtaking action to relieve yourself to enjoy the movie more?

reply

Then i might go.

reply

It's just a movie. Health is more important.

reply

I've held myself for long times before and i never took any damage, it wouldn't make the movie as enjoyable though as mentioned above XD

reply

Trying to focus on a movie when you gotta go is just as bad as trying to focus on a movie when you have a headache.

reply

Depends on exactly how urgent if it is of course. And how heavy the headache is.

reply

I just do what I always do: put my ankles behind my head and pee straight up into the air. Usually it gets an applause, sometimes a standing ovation if I can aim it onto the screen.

reply

That is brutal.

reply

Are you a contortionist?

reply

It's super quick and easy to do if you dedicate over a decade to practicing yoga, bruh.

Actually I think he's a comedian.

What may elevate your display is perhaps a small portable fan, the ones that are just a tube and the blades retract, or pop out when its on.

Held between your feet perhaps, it would capture the top of a comfortable arc and extend it, fountainesquely, into a very artistic sprinkler system.

I'm certain you would be showered with even more applause and praise by those around you who were showered with hot splashes of an evening to remember.

reply

Thanks for the suggestion, but I already tried it. Too many people complained to the management because the artificial butter topping at the concession stand failed to live up to the flavor of my spray. This is partly why theaters pay me to sit in a middle aisle seat during peak hours.

reply

That was you?!?!?

reply

You're welcome!

reply

Options: colostomy bag, soda cup or bottle, hospital urinal, floor beneath you. These options are for men only.

Best idea: DON!T HYDRATE BEFORE THE MOVIE, BEVIS.

reply

Could also bring a pee fetishist along like a portable urinal.

reply

Or women with really good aim.

reply

If it's a really good action scene, then I'll need all that bladderpower to pee my pants. Then I won't have to use the bathroom anymore. I'm as good as golden (shower).

Two birds, one stone.

No delay, Satan! Lets get this done today.

reply

Poor janitor thought a sticky floor was the worst mess he thought he'd encounter.

reply


If you're smart, you pee right BEFORE the movie starts, and don't drink anything during the movie. Problem solved, and you're welcome.

😎

reply

While true, sometimes people have those days where they pee every hour and they're not sure why because they didn't drink a lot.

reply


They're probably wrong about how much they drank, and they need to drink less.

😎

reply

if the urge is stronger than the desire to see the movie, you went to the wrong movie

reply

That's deep.

reply

Bevis. voice: Heh! He said deep.

reply

It depends on when the urge strikes. If it hits late in the film, you might be able to hold it long enough for the movie to end. But if it happens early in the film, or right near the middle, you might want to risk missing 5 minutes of the film so you don't end up wetting yourself. It's why I don't drink anything before starting a movie. I don't wanta risk having a need for a bathroom break.

reply

Is bothering people in the seats beside you a factor or do you just go and not worry about them complaining?

reply

Just politely tell them "Excuse me, pardon me, sorry." I don't have issues with stuff like that. In fact, it's more of an issue with various shmoes sitting with their feet up on the bar in front of the row, depending on where in the theater you are.

The truth is, I've had more issues with OTHER people who won't sit still, instead of my own biological needs causing trouble for others. When we went to see "Rogue One," it seemed that there must have been 80 families in there, and ALL the damned kids had to go to the bathroom during the first hour of the film. So our view of the screen was constantly being interrupted by parents and their kids going in and out of the theater to use the John.

reply

Shoot them fatally. No jury will convict you. You have also cleansed the gene pool.

Just make sure their alleged brains don’t soil the screen.

reply

Amusing as your suggestion is, I don't wanta end up like the guy from Aurora.

reply

Amusing that you yap about being a serious 'Christian' guy in some posts and then post stupid stuff like this archie....little kids have to pee frequently and can often be annoying

I vote we don't start shooting their brains out

PS: How are your awesome Lats going, dude?

reply

Friday is glut night at the Arcane house 😊😊

reply

It's probably 'wrist night' too...He's very busy with that 'Kitana' of his😂

reply

he watches vivid videos for the plot 😊😊

reply

Oh yes, his amazing literary background as a best selling writer means he requires a solid story and character motivation in his softcore pornographic films

He is a 'warrior' and a 'Christian' after all🤪🤪🤪

Do you think he sold himself his TV...he's supposed to be the best damned TV seller in Boston...

reply

I sure he gets the wholesale price.

reply

archie is so cool that I heard a bunch of naked super models just brought him a giant free TV one day and he made love to all of them like no other man could have!

archie is awesome bro!

reply

while quoting Shakespeare.

reply

Quoting?

I heard he wrote all that stuff!

You missed this: https://moviechat.org/general/General-Discussion/5ce6c9efde6c627ec5856873/Were-any-mafia-members-as-cool-or-charismatic-as-those-depicted-in-movies

During at least a couple of separate times in the past, he claimed/bragged that his mother's boyfriend was a " made guy. " In other words, he's "connected" and even more of a bad ass through sheer association.

reply

I remember now...he 'knew Boston guys' lol!

archibald is a never ending source of comedy

Sad, funny and true

Maybe all of those TVs are 'falling off the truck'😳

reply

I wouldn't brag about that even if it were true which I doubt.

reply

Tough guy talk is all that stuff is
from an internet toughguy...say, did I ever tell you that I was an Army Ranger with 400 confirmed enemy kills?

Also, I used to run the Boston Mob until I retired to pursue a career of being a pest on the internet;)

reply

He's MC's Walter Mitty.

reply

I enjoy it all as a great parody of an asshole type of guy...I'm enjoying archie quite a lot

It's all got to be a goof

reply

I feel you on the feet being up. I also hate when the rows are tight and every time someone moves behind you, they hit your seat. A big problem for me is when someone nearby is drenched in perfume or cologne.

reply

I used to have another problem with older theaters: tall people.

You see, they had two theaters in this town I lived in back in the Midwest, where all the seats were the same height, and went down a gentle slope in the theater. Trouble is, people are built of all different heights, and sometimes my view of the screen was blocked out by some tall idiot's big fat head in front of me. It as much worse when I was little and shorter.

However, theaters are built very different in other states, as I found out. They now have tiered seating, and very comfy seats in the places I go now. So the height difference is not a problem anymore :D.

Great question ! To which there is no right answer
