Rundown: [community profile] rpanons is an anonymous community for role-play related topics. This place serves as a forum for game discussions, canon discussions, RP solicitations (ATP, game ads, open memes), and advice. The occasional off topic comment is inevitable, but please keep heated social and political topics to their respective communities. Posting them here will only get them frozen. Subsequent threads made to bypass a freeze will then be deleted.

Rules:

Do not post pornographic or shocking images.
Do not share private entries, plurks, chat logs, etc.
Do not use this community as your social/political/hatespeech soapbox.
Do not be redundant. One page does not need three or more threads on one topic/theme. Your unfunny, forced memes also fall under this rule.
Do not treat this comm like your personal therapist. Threads about nonfictional suicide, self injury, rape, and abuse will be deleted. There are better resources out there for you.
Do not treat this comm like your personal Plurk or Twitter. Off-topic happens, but it should be open for discussion and not just a play-by-play of your life. No one cares.
Shut up about Tumblr. If it's not a discussion about Tumblr RP it will be deleted.

Wait, there are people who don't think it's weird to go to the movies alone?

(Anonymous) 2018-04-22 10:10 pm (UTC)(link)
how the hell is that weird, do you have to wait until the dvd comes out/pirate it if you want to see it if nobody else wants to see it

(Anonymous) 2018-04-22 11:20 pm (UTC)(link)
did you have to make a new thread about this

it's not weird, grow the hell up

(Anonymous) 2018-04-22 11:27 pm (UTC)(link)
why would it be weird? most people go to a movie because they want to see the movie.

Why would it be weird? Movies are actually a pretty crappy social activity since you have to be quiet the whole time.

Sometimes people watch movies that don't have spider-man in them, anon, and some of those people might want to engage with those movies without the distraction of a friend, in order to be able to judge the art for themselves.

this actually depends on where you live. More urban areas, nobody gives the slightest shitfuck about going to movies alone. The more rural/conservative the area, the more it starts to turn into a faux pax. So if someone's thinking it's weird to go alone, odds are they're a sheltered tittybaby who needs to venture out into the real world.

back in my tiny hometown I never would have gone to the movies alone because someone would have seen me and made a big deal about it. now that I live in an urban area I do it all the time and don't give a fuck.

My boyfriend lives in a suburban area and I live in the city, and he was really surprised when I told him I go to movies and eat out alone all the time. But honestly I like doing that stuff by myself, it's pretty relaxing. And frankly with my work schedule, planning stuff with friends can be tough.

I used to think it was weird but then I grew out of that

My friends and I got older and have less free time, which means scheduling can be a nightmare, and when we do see each other we'd rather use the time to actually catch up, not sit for 2 hours in the dark. but we also have more disposable income, which means seeing a movie more than one time isn't gonna break the bank, so me seeing it when I want while my friend sees it with their SO, and then seeing it together later isn't an issue

Now going to eat at a restaurant alone? That's still weird to me. I'd like to break myself of it though because I'm gonna have to start taking business trips soon

Honestly, as someone who works in a restaurant, nobody cares if someone is there by themselves. All we care about is that you're not an asshole and tip your server.

i like doing things like going to lunch or to the movies by myself. it means i'm not beholden to anyone else's schedule and i actually enjoy taking a book to a restaurant and reading while i eat. it's very peaceful. same with movies; i enjoy going with friends sometimes, but movies aren't actually very social activities and they're easy to enjoy alone.

if i wanna watch something with a friend i'd rather it be a movie or show i'd seen before so we could chat about what was going on without missing out on the plot.

(Anonymous) 2018-04-23 09:27 pm (UTC)(link)
i got moviepass so i can go see movies all the time. no one else has it to go as often as i do, and no one wants to pay that much to go as often as i do, either. so i go to the movies alone all the time.

damn, I want that so bad.

What do you do if nobody else you know is interested in a movie you want to see?

you wanna see it, you go watch it, it's cool, not everyone is dating or living so close to family, karen.

I feel like it's weird, but not weird enough to give a shit when people do it.

(Anonymous) 2018-04-24 05:49 am (UTC)(link)
i've got some friends who go to the movies alone frequently and it's really no big deal.

but that said, if you are doing movies solo at a crowded theater in america, please don't bring any big bags in with you. random mass shootings and the like have gotten so common that i makes me really nervous whenever i see someone by themself in a theater with any kind of big bag that could be concealing weapons or bombs or whatever, and paying attention to the movie becomes impossible. one movie i was at even had someone call security called on a guy because he'd been by himself with a big backpack and then went to the bathroom and left the backpack behind in the theater. it was thankfully nothing and i did feel bad for the guy with the backpack, but it's hard not to worry about that kind of stuff these days.

I don't know why the above anons are eyerolling over this so hard. It's not likely, but given the current state of this country that sounds like a pretty fair thing to be anxious about.

Why would it be weird to go to a movie alone? What logic would there be in going 'well, I want to see this movie, but I don't know other people who do' and waiting six months for it to come out on DVD when I could just... go see it? I'm 22, not 2, I don't need to be accompanied to the theater anymore.
