An usher at Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf spent most of the first act sitting in the back corner of the mezzanine eating tortilla chips out of a plastic bag.

I spent most of the first act glaring at him, trying to make eye contact so he could see how much I hated him, but it didn’t make him stop.

The only people who should be allowed to have cell phones are the physically indigent. Otherwise these utterly unnecessary devices do nothing more than stoke anti-social behavior fed by narcissism.
