Welcome

We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!

The Rules

Posts must be:

  1. Links to news stories from...
  2. ...credible sources, with...
  3. ...their original headlines, that...
  4. ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

And that’s basically it!

The theater near me is staffed by teenagers who couldn't care less. I always stop at the dollar store or even grab a burger and put it in my backpack. I haven't been asked about the contents of my bag in like 10 years

Some guy checked my bag once, loaded with snacks, looked me dead in the eye, and shrugged while waving me in haha. That man's a G.

The concept of a movie theater doing bag checks is really fucking weird.

Before the 2012 Aurora Theater shooting, I would have agreed with you.
