Today, I had to leave the movie theater early because I couldn't fit in the chairs. I guess I'll see it when it comes out on DVD. FML

Today, I was late to a sold out movie in the theater, so I had to shuffle in during the previews in the dark. I sat down in what I thought was the last vacant seat, but I'd really just sat in a small woman's lap. She was not happy. FML
Today, I went to the movies with some friends. During the movie, I really needed to pee but didn’t want to disturb anyone. So, I waited and waited. Finally, I couldn’t hold it anymore and bolted to the bathroom… only to get locked out of the theater in the process. The staff had to escort me back in during the end credits. FML
Today, I went to a movie with this guy. He was late so the only seats available were the ones in the very front which he refused to sit in. As we were looking for two seats, he spotted one near the back and sat down, leaving me to sit by myself in the front. FML
Today, I was having a rough day, so I decided to go to the movies to unwind. 15 minutes in, some assmunch behind me said "This movie sucks!" then dumped his drink over my head and ran out. FML
Today, stood in line for hours to see the new Harry Potter. Unfortunately, once inside the theater, I was stuck in the bathroom with the runs for the entire length of the movie. FML
Today, at my job as a movie theater attendant, my boss finally eased up and let me sit in on one of the movies. One woman kept laughing out loud every other line. After ten minutes of her braying like a dying horse, I got up and had her ejected from the theater. I'm a terrible person. FML
Today, I went to see a movie with 4 friends. I didn't realize that I was the only one who didn't have a date. The theater row had just enough room for everyone but me, I got to sit in back of everyone else while they were making out in front of me for 2 hours. FML
Today, at the cinema, I sat next to a guy who couldn’t stand a minute without laughing or making comments about the film. FML
Today, I was at the movies with my boyfriend when I really had to pee. I tried to get out of the aisle in a hurry so I wouldn't disturb anyone when I tripped, landing on the people in the row in front of me. FML
Today, I was at a movie theater. I heard some obnoxious people talking in front of me. After about 5 minutes, I began throwing popcorn at a group of suspected people. As I was escorted out, I realized that the obnoxious people were in the background of the movie. FML

I would say you deserve it, but we don't know the circumstances here. So in the nicest way possible, let this be motivation to lose weight. Do it the healthy way and you can only benefit. Good luck! :)

If I'm honest it's a YDI, although the seats could be small in general...

Don't pay any attention to the disrespectful comments - maybe this is just the perfect wake up call you needed :) As long as you're happy with yourself, who cares!

If you are too fat to fit in the seat, either stay the **** home or buy two seats. My husband and I just spent a fortune on really good seats to a Broadway show. A woman three times the size of a hippo had the seat next to me. Her blubber poured out of her seat over me, pushing me into a practically sideways position and jamming my knee into the seat in front of me. One month later and my knee is STILL ****** up. On top of pushing me and covering me with her flab, she smelled horrible and spent the whole show munching on an endless supply of junk food. I could scarcely hear the actors over her constant "CRUNCH, CRUNCH, CRUNCH." At the intermission I asked her VERY NICELY to get off my clothes so I could get up and she was royally pissed off at me for making her heft herself out of her seat. How dare I inconvenience her so I could use the restroom! Same thing happened to us at a baseball game. Bought great seats. Couldn't sit in them because a guy the size of a fridge sat next to my husband. His right ass cheek literally covered my husband's whole lap. Fortunately we complained to an usher who re-seated us in similar seats elsewhere but this was not possible at the theater so I just spent top dollar to have a stranger's fat rolls all over me and leave stinking of her B.O. and with her food crumbs all over me, plus she injured my knee. Yeah, yeah, fatties have rights but what about MY RIGHTS? I paid for seats I couldn't sit in. Fatties should buy two seats or stay the hell home or better yet, go on a diet. Anyone who has ever been assaulted on an airplane, in a theater, etc. by a stranger's flab will know what I'm talking about.

I get what you are saying, but your tone is NASTY! All the judgement-passing and name-calling really wasn't necessary to get your point across...

How is calling a fat person 'fat' passing judgement? It's a statement of fact. Fat people are fat. I could call them 'sweet-smelling roses' but they're still fat. And exactly why am I supposed to show these inconsiderate slobs every courtesy as they occupy the space I PAID FOR, make my clothes stink, crunch their food in my ear, use my body as a napkin and crush my knee? Oh, right, because I'm supposed to be courteous to the overweight. I will when they are courteous enough to respect my personal space. FYI, obesity for medical reasons, such as thyroid, are actually rare, so the vast majority of obese people are so because they stuff themselves non-stop and don't exercise.

Thanks for the explanation - I am a medical doctor, I am thus aware that obesity is almost always due to excess not underlying medical problems - I did, in fact, write a post regarding this a bit further up, it differed from yours in that it didn't sound like it was written by a very angry truck driver...I'm very surprised you are a girl, you have a horrible pottymouth and a lot of rage!
