“Do you want me to pause it?”

“Not necessary,” they respond.

It doesn’t matter whether the movie is good or not.

How could they just walk out on a movie without pausing?

Do they have no respect for the art of cinema?

What’s wrong with them?

They’re fine, I’m the neurotic idiot.

What Did I Miss?

These other types tend to have a more relaxed relationship with escapism like movies and books.

What do you mean you saw “part” of it and not the whole thing?

For me, that’s like saying “I read page 78 of that book.”

But again, they’re not in the wrong.

Few movies are so good that they require seeing every nanosecond, and many scenes are cliched and pee-worthy.

Less yapping, more chasing.

Besides, you might always rush back before them and quickly rewind it like a jackass.
