This Guy Set 6 Ground Rules Before Taking His Girlfriend To The Movies, And 300,000+ People Shared And Liked It
There’s nothing worse than finally getting to that movie you’ve waited so long for, only for the experience to be diminished by the rude people around you chomping loudly on their chips, chatting to their friends, and constantly checking their phones. Sometimes you just wish there were a little order, a little more respect. Some ground rules maybe.
Perhaps this guy can help. Taken from a funny tweet from a guy named Stanley T, this is the story of an unnamed Avengers mega-fan who did the chivalrous thing and asked his girlfriend first if she wanted to go with him on a movie date to see Infinity War. “Yes dear,” was her reply.
And that’s where the chivalry needed for a perfect date ended. Now, it’s perfectly understandable and acceptable to make it clear that going to see this Avengers movie is an important event and politely ask for a little peace. But Avengers mega-fan really takes the piss on this one. He proceeds to list in no uncertain terms his ‘ground rules’ to poor girlfriend, to the extent that it becomes unclear if he can really be serious or not. We are hoping not. Sheesh, it’s just a frickin movie, bro…
Scroll down to see his hilariously specific demands for the screening of a movie premiere below, and let us know what you think in the comments. Are these ground rules acceptable? Or is he just being a diva and a douchebag? Join the discussion!

I think he's "Jokingly Serious". He definitely sounds like somebody who REALLY just wants to enjoy the picture, without distractions. It's his dime, he can spend it anyway he wants. I like his humor.

Ugh... "Grow up. Comics are for teenage boys anyways"? I will never understand why people try to kill passion in others by saying things like that. It's wonderful to be passionate about things, isn't it? Whatever the passion is, childish or not. We all are children after all ;)... Making others feel ashamed in this particular way is so harmful and destructive...

The statement that a genre or artistic media is for a specific audience only also shows about the ignorance and pseudo-intellectualism of the one who claims that. They're diminishing themselves, not the geek/nerd/fan. Because a true smart person knows that 1) although the mainstream might make it seem different, there's a little bit for everyone in the entertainment industry in each genre and each kind of media; 2) film, animation and comics (even some video games) are modern literature in its larger meaning; and 3) even stuff targeted at kids can be very deep and meaningful for adults as well, Ghibli is a very famous example of that.
