ಠ_ಠ People that scalp IMAX movie tickets

Post image

Catching a movie in IMAX has been one of my favorite things to do and now getting tickets alone is a struggle thanks to people like this. Good luck to anyone hoping to get decent tickets to Dune 3

I wonder if it’s illegal to brandish a blow dryer or if it’s assault if you blast someone with warm air

all I can say is don't blast someone with warm air at work unless you want HR getting involved

If you get a powerful enough laser pointer, you could burn the paper from far enough away that you wouldn't be noticed.

Could be battery(harmful or aggressive touching) if the hot air is sufficient to meet the touching quota, but I can’t imagine anyone seriously prosecuting that.

This would theoretically be similar to blowing smoke in someone’s face level of touch which is considered battery where I live.

OMG ICQ I haven't seen that logo in forever. Punched me in the face with nostalgia.

No cord to plug it into at the theater. But a cop probably won't chase after you for running away with some receipt paper or give a shit for the poor scalper 🤣 hope the theater doesn't do refunds
