It's not racism if it's true Seriously though, if you live in the hood, you're going to see this sort of thing aaallll the time. The simple fact is that ghetto people suck, and a disproportionate number of ghetto people are black.

Around here, it's mostly black teenagers who won't shut the hell up. White teenagers won't get off the fucking phone. :|

Death to teenagers!

Anyway, tell them like you'd tell anyone else. If you treat them differently, you're the problem, not the solution.

That, to the pixel.

You know, you could say, "Hey, would you kindly shut the fuck up?"

Same as the pumpkin-headed, ponytailed, piece of shit that was at A Serious Man yesterday "Are you serious? Please. Stop talking!". Jackass.

Usually teenagers grow up to be adults but in the ghetto many a times the adults are just like they were when they were teenagers.......unfortunately.

Ignore it or file your complaint to the theater attendants. It is not your job to tell people to be quiet, because it might draw more unwanted attention to the situation & yourself.

I prefer watching movies on my home theater system and avoid the anoyances.

All black people have explosive violent tempers. Everyone knows this.

weelll I wouldn't necessarily say ALL but 99% is probably a pretty conservative percentage.

I don't know how to tell them to shut the fuck up without offending them, but if you want to get rid of them just tell them there is a Popeyes that just opened up around the corner and they're handing out free chicken. Limited while supplies last.

So you went to see Zombieland, the big teenybopper comedy/thriller in theaters right now, and you thought the kids seeing that movie weren't going to be talking loud? Cripes man. It's all friggin' teenagers. There's also 3 or 4 who think they're comedians and their stupid comments are funnier than the movie. I could have told you before you left that this was going to happen.

On that note, my favorite thing is the douche with the super sensitive ears that will shush you when you whisper in your girlfriends ear. And they make a point of shushing louder than any sound you made. Obnoxious.

Even better, the retard that can't friggin sit still. All the damn seats are connected to each other in a row, and it never fails I get stuck next to the guy who has to shake his legs back and forth ceaselessly through the whole movie. Start getting motion sickness from it. Don't snort crank before you go to the movie and you'll be able to sit still for 2 hours.

Dealing with teeny-boppers is easy.

Just find one of those ringtones that only tweens can hear.
Annoy the fuck out of them.
Profit.

My problem is that for a 30 year old, I still hear pretty high up in the frequency range (I have no idea why). So its possible some of the more irritating 20 year olds may not respond to a sound that would kill me. But I would just use some battery-amplified speakers and keep driving them out until the movie was a pleasant experience. I still have some older ones after about 10 years. They work great. Couple them with an mp3 player and make sure you start off with the highest frequency first.

As for black folks: Studies suggest that an armed white man waving a confederate flag does wonders. Of course, in New York and New Jersey that would cause the white folks to jump your ass, so it may not be that helpful.

I'm that guy. TBH is it that fucking hard to sit through a single movie and STFU so we can anjoy it? I don't see why you feel the need to discuss each scene with your girlfriend in a whispering voice which is in fact a lot louder than you think it is.

There is some truth in many stereotypes and I believe this is one of them with some. It's a cultural difference based on my real-life observations; black people when in a group just do appear louder than whites, in general.

BTW if you are a regular whisperer/talker, chances are VERY HIGH that you are pissing off your friends every bit as much as strangers, so do stfu, please.

and yes, this stereotype is real and has been known for decades.

i remember going to a movie theater once in detroit to watch Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. as soon as the subtitles appeared, a group of guys yelled 'oh f*** this s***' and left...lol
