Top 10 Annoying People in the Cinema

1. The Smartphone Overuser

The light from his smartphone screen is distracting your eyesight; and it just won't stop all throughout the movie. Yup, he paid for the movie ticket, posted about himself currently watching the movie and told everybody on Facebook how awesome it is. It just so happen that his focus is not on the movie but on his damn smartphone.

2. The Talkative One

This person just won't stop talking, aloud. 'Nuff said.

3. The Noisy Eater

No problem with binge eating. However, there are some people who produce weird noises while eating. Nobody knows why their way of eating sounds like that.

4. The Get-a-room Couple

PDA and making out, sure, it's totally fine; as long as they're somewhere in the far away corner of the cinema. Unfortunately, you can't help but look at them, you will wonder about what they are exactly doing when they are sitting beside you or somewhere near you. Ironically, you're the one who will feel embarrassed.

5. The Kicking Foot

Yeap, you wanna stretch your legs from time to time, that's understandable. However, when someone keeps on "kicking" the back of your chair, it makes you feel dizzy or lightheaded. So much for the shaky "backrest".

6. The Urinary Frequency

It's acceptable if you have such illness, in Filipino, balisawsaw. But if you know that you have this problem, it is best to choose a seat that is beside the hallway and toilet. Passing by once or twice is enough but when someone keeps on blocking your view, and when you have to lift up or adjust your legs over and over again just to let him through, it just ruins the momentum.

7. The Kids

99% of them are children and the other 1% are the childish teenagers. Their parents or guardians are having a hard time to tame them. They play and run around during the movie. They scream or cry. Outrageous, really.

8. The Silent Killer

It's human nature, yes, but this person just can't stop farting.

9. The Snoring Sleeper

If someone chooses to sleep, why not? But why do you have to snore so loud? We are too shy to wake you up when it happens though. Go home, you're drunk.

10. The Spoiler

Oh gosh I really hate spoilers. When the movie is based on a book or whatever, or when the spoiler guy already watched the movie yesterday and just decided to accompany someone, he just can't keep the details to himself. Yup, he's watching it again but he will always say what's gonna happen next. Like, the very next scene. And nope, he won't just whisper it. He will let everyone hear it because he thinks it's so cool of him.
