The other day Maria and I went to watch Pirates of the Caribbean at GSC @ 1Utama. We have anticipated the movie a lot and we had been waiting for a long while because Maria was outstation for one whole week.
Right before we went in, we saw this store selling nice tidbits (just outside of the ticketing area) so we went in, browsed and picked the things we wanted to munch during the movie. After making the payment, we proceeded to the entrance where these three dudes were collecting the ticket tabs for entrance (sometimes you have to wonder why the fuck they need 3 people to work on the job since it wasn't very crowded on a weekday).
One of the guys saw our bags, and stopped us. For the sake of simplicity, I will just call him Bastard.
Bastard: "Sorry sir, no outside food allow."
ME: "What outside food. I bought it at the store over there." (pointed to the store)
Bastard: "Sorry sir, only food bought from our concession is allowed."
ME: "So you mean if I buy things from that store (pointed to the store again) and I cannot bring them in?"
Bastard: "Yes, that's correct sir."
ME: "Confirm?"
Bastard: "Yessir."
ME: "Then why the fuck you have a store in GSC premises and yet you don't allow the moviegoers to buy things from there? If you do not allow it in the first place, then you should not allow the shop to be opened there!" (pointed to the store again while the people behind us gawked at us)
Bastard: "Sorry sir, that's our policy."
ME: "That's a stupid policy. Do you believe that I will blog about this whole fucking situation and tell all my readers about it? Besides, I have thousand readers daily from all over the world."
Okay, you cannot possibly think that I said the last sentence. Besides, I don't have thousand readers falling on me daily. Hell, I'll be lucky if I get thousand hits per year. Anyway, that's a story for another day.
Back to the story.
Looking behind us, I saw that the line was getting longer. So instead of arguing with that bastard, I just glared at him, and said, "That's a fucking stupid policy."
Then Maria and I walked out of the line to the side, and Maria, being cool and calm as usual, just tugged the bag into her HUGE handbag. I mean, that handbag was really gigantic! Then, we went back to the line to catch our movie.
No one stopped us this time, and after going through the gate, I couldn't resist but to throw them another hot glare and whipped out the bags of junk food, waved at them, and continued to our Cinema 2.
No outside food allowed? Sure! Just hide it.
Simple eh?

Well, long ago I used to buy roti canai and also curry laksa to eat inside. Don't ask how we ate it though, it was a bit gross.
