A Texas Man Is Suing His Date For Texting During A Movie

Hey look, it’s the worst dude on the planet.

It’s 2017, people text during movies, but apparently this Texas guy hates it so much he’s suing his date for doing so during Guardians of the Galaxy, Vol. 2.

Here’s the scoop from American-Stateseman:

ROUND ROCK — A man is suing a Round Rock woman for texting during a movie date at the Barton Creek Square theater, according to a petition filed in small claims court in Travis County.

Brandon Vezmar, 37, of Austin filed the claim Thursday against his date. He is asking for $17.31, which was the price of the movie ticket to a 3D showing of “Guardians of the Galaxy, Vol. 2,” he told the American-Statesman Tuesday.

The 35-year-old woman, reached by phone Tuesday, said she didn’t know about the claim against her. She asked that her name not be used.

“Oh my God,” she said. “This is crazy.”

Vezmar, who has his own communications consulting company, said he met the woman online and went with her on their first date May 6 to the movie.

“It was kind of a first date from hell,” he said. About 15 minutes after the movie began, Vezmar said, his date started texting on her phone. “This is like one of my biggest pet peeves.”

In the petition, Vezmar said the woman “activated her phone at least 10–20 times in 15 minutes to read and send text messages.”

Vezmar said he asked her to stop but she refused. He said he told her that maybe she could go outside to text. She left the theater and never came back, Vezmar said.

This guy is a special one, I tell you what.

We’ve allllll joked before about suing someone for doing something that pisses you off, we’ve all had that hypothetical, but this dude is actually doing it.

First things first, movie ticket prices are outrageous. Seventeen bucks to go watch a movie? Now I remember why I never go, that’s absolutely ridiculous.

Second off, this dude had ZERO interest in this woman obviously. He literally asked her to leave her seat to go text. He didn’t like her one bit, that is very clear. With that being said, he could’ve just let her be, it sounds like this wasn’t going to turn into anything serious whatsoever.

This guy’s №1 ‘deal-breaker’ seems to be texting in a movie which makes him one very, very special human. One very special human that wants his $17.31 back.
