To think if you're a tap you should sit at the end of the row?

grrr another cinema one.

Why do taps insist on sitting right down the aisle meaning everytime they get up, everyone else has to get up too!? It's SO annoying. Lost count of the amount of times I had to get up yesterday during Johnny English.

Taps - why bother going to cinema at all??? surely you miss most of the bloody film anyway?!

I thought this thread was going to be about kitchen sinks.

What's a tap?

SixtyFootDoll · 27/10/2011 08:05

Taps??!

BOOareHaunting · 27/10/2011 08:20

A tap I guess is someone with a weak bladder? Not the nicest description for someone with a medical condition.

YANBU to find it annoying having to move but spare a thought for those you need to pee frequently and consider there may not be any isle seats available when they booked. They may not like getting up and down any more than you do.

Oh, a leaky sieve!

Oh, you sound super (though I kind of see your point).

Do you hate people in wheelchairs for getting in your way too?

Ormirian · 27/10/2011 19:50

quite right! They should have just pissed on you instead.

Actually I can see your point but tough really.

They should, but you can't faucet.

wheelchair users don't expect everyone to get up every 3 minutes for them!

Maybe they can't always get a seat at the end of a row. Maybe the end of the row has got crap sight lines. Maybe this time, it was an exceptional occasional thing and they're not usually like that. Maybe someone else bought the tickets and they didn't have a choice.

Nice to see the tolerant society still going strong.

Pippinintherain · 27/10/2011 20:03

As someone who often needs to pee very frequently I can assure you it's no barrell of laughs for me either.

I always try to get an aisle seat, if I can't I panic that intolerant folks like you will be pissed off.
