My SO needs to educate his associates better

We just went to the (very nice indeed) seasonal dinner of local geeks. At the dinner, while talking about films, I bemoaned the fact that this afternoon we turned up at 1.05pm to see the 1.30 showing of Brokeback Mountain, and found a queue all around the corner and didn't get in ::sniff::

Geek 1: Which movie's that?
Geek 2: Oh, that's the gay cowboy movie.
Geek 1: Why would you want to go and see that?
Me: Well, let me see now....

How long has this geek spent prowling around the internet for bizarre things? And he's managed not to fall over slash? 0_0

The evening would have been better if we hadn't found a parking ticket on the car when we got back. We paid, dammit! We put our money in the box for our stall number! Go screw yourselves for your parking fine, bitches!

Dear lord, why wouldn't we?

Uhmm... maybe the geeks don't notice anything that doesn't have unrealistic women in it? Or something like that....

And can you fight the ticket? Still have the receipt from the stall?

Why would anyone willingly want to read half the geek related stuff they do? Different interests for different people. I would've loved to hear the rest of this conversation though. Did you shock them silent? Give them links to some good slash? *giggles*

I found that when I showed up to see Brokeback Mountain, it was sold out. And the two showings after were sold out already as well. Of course, I should have expected this, seeing as how I live in San Francisco and all ...
