    Here's a dumb commercial from VW about the dangers of cell phone use while driving:



    For God will not permit that we shall know what is to come... those who by some sorcery or by some dream might come to pierce the veil that lies so darkly over all that is before them may serve by just that vision to cause that God should wrench the world from its heading and set it upon another course altogether and then where stands the sorcerer? Where the dreamer and his dream?

    I'm kind of happy that I don't even remember the last time I heard a cell phone ringing in a movie theater. Blabbering idiots of course aren't ever going to disappear, but at least cell phones remain mainly silent in these parts.

    A pretty funny video in any case.

    I find that a large amount of people keep their phones on during the advertisements and trailers until the "feature presentation" reel where it reminds people to turn off their phones or set them to silent.

    I'd still prefer the comfort of my own home rather than a movie theatre to avoid these people, though.

    I hate people in movie theatres; I almost always get some jackass who kicks the back of my seat and/or another ass clown that is constantly on their cell phone. It's the main reason that when I do go (which is like 2 times a year now) I sit at the back and typically away from other people and I always wait until a movie is at the end of its life in theatres so it's almost a guarantee the seating will be mostly empty...but that's hard to plan because movies hardly spend any time in theatres.
