and I plead guilty to laughing and singing too loud!”

If this was literally the only thing she did wrong, and I doubt it, then she deserved to be kicked out. You don't sing along with a live musical just because you know the fucking music, you moron.

Yeah, she's a stereotypical republican, dumb as dirt and self-centered to an extreme.

Taking photographs and using your phone during a theatrical performance is usually considered bad theatre etiquette. These aren’t obscure rules used by a small group of theatre snobs to tell who’s a newbie and who’s a fellow member of the elite. They’re announced to everyone attending the show (sans late arrivals and people using the bathroom). Most shows, including Beetlejuice, have a pre-show announcement that happens right before the show begins. The announcement says something like “the use of any recording device is strictly prohibited” and asks the audience to turn off their cellphones.

I normally wouldn’t do this, but because the Fediverse is small and it’s semi-relevant… !musicals. There’s currently a bug that makes !communityName@instancelinks like the one I just wrote not always federate out properly from Kbin, so here are some alternative links to the same place: @musicals and https://kbin.social/m/musicals.

Even without an announcement, you shouldn't have to be told not to be a dick.

You shouldn't have to, but this is America.

She thought “beetlejuice” was a vape flavor.

Now that’s a grandmother I’d love to fuck.

Once.

Somewhere that isn’t my house and with a fake name.

I really hope they were applauding because she was being told to get the fuck out.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

No doubt her followers will shortly be clamouring for a boycott.

Karen? Is that you?
