Erik CummingsJuly 24, 2011If the staff yelled shush anymore they would go mute. Like if your theater sucks so much, then soundproof something already. Super annoying.
The elevator sucks. It skips your floor before backtracking to pick you up, just out of spite. Like riding in a very slow submarine.
