A friend of mine is super anxious about being late for stuff. This did not jive with my desire to be as late as possible to films. My ideal time to take my seat is about a minute before it starts. I already paid for a ticket, fuck off with your adverts.

The wild part is that's what we did. The ads I described were almost entirely after the movie WA's advertised as starting.

It was genuinely like a 7 start time for the movie that didn't actually start until something asinine like 7:40.

That's exactly what I mean though - I want to be much later than the advertised start because it's a damn lie.
