I'm always compelled to try to eat them all though. The partially popped ones with wee cracks in them are actually quite tasty.

Was even more impressive when putting my jacket on I discovered the hood and pockets to be crammed full of popcorn too.
Sorry Jeff, this made me smile. It is impressive... so so wrong but bloody impressive. They must be masters of jenga. Were there people next to them? I wonder what they made of the shenanigans taking place.

Either Jenga or Buckaroo. And if it was Buckaroo then that means I was the donkey I don't know if there was anyone sitting near them other than me. I wonder what they're doing now...

Probably progressed to balancing expenses claims on those in front of them in the House of Commons.
Either that or delicately arranging toppings in Subway

It is funny, and cheeky. But if they got it in your pockets Jeff then it's lucky they didn't take your wallet while they were at it. Must've been a top film.

My jacket pockets are always empty. Anything valuable I keep in the front pockets of my jeans. Can't believe even so long ago I was already so jaded and untrusting. Ah well.

Brilliant time at work last night. Was sitting watching How do you know. When the doors to the screen swung opened. I thought to myself it will be the floor staff coming to clean the screen. How wrong was I. It was a local drunk. He came in started pissing on one of the seats at the front of screen. Then I kid you not. He finished pissing and the thought to himself I need a seat. Sat in the same seat he just took a piss on. I radioed a manager to get Into the screen and give me hand with this guy. I can still smell him. :-(.
