I recently went to a movie (The  Fountain) with some friends of mine. Before the movie starts we stop at the concessions stand.  Being the little piggy that I am I order "The Perfect Combo"- a large carbonated beverage and large popcorn. My friend asked if we could share. "Right", I said to him "share".  I don't know if you know this but I love popcorn. I wish the concession attendent still put the butter on for you, its so much easier that way.
      I can easily eat an entire bag of movie theatre popcorn by myself in one sitting of a 2 hour movie.  I know, its disgusting. I'm not hungry when I go to the movies, I'm just bored sometimes.
    I pay $8.50, thanks to my student discount, for every movie I see. I enjoy going to the movies, but rarely to do I enjoy the movie.  Movies just don't do it for me anymore- they don't make 'em like the used to.
    During the first 15 minutes of the movie, I easily ate 1/4 of the popcorn, and drank half of my cherry cola. I was just confused! I think my friend could tell, because without me looking at him he just whispered "Don't worry, it will make sense eventually". Eventually, it all made sense and good thing too because I ran out of popcorn half way through.
