Today, my friend and I were seeing a movie. We ended up sitting next to a man who was continually laughing, clapping, and bouncing up and down on his seat. Extremely annoyed, we turned to him and told him to "shut the fuck up". Turns out he had downs syndrome and ran out of the theater crying. FML

Why would your first course of action be to tell someone to "shut the **** up"? I agree with #3.

Wait, was this person alone? I mean were they young? old? I mean who is the asshole that brought someone with downs to a movie and didn't think about something like this happening? Let me guess they were to busy holding their 2 month old child crying his/her ass off to worry about the person with downs, and the people around them... People are ******* stupid..........

#5 you're a piece of shit and thank you #36

#119. Maad funny. I agree if someone is making noise u have every rite to say stfu. But it Is kinda messed up what u said about the retarted guy

hahaa, same thing happened to my friend in a movie. guy was making obnoxious noises and so my friend turns around and yelled at him, then to find out he had disabilities.

i like all the comments that say check first "do you have down's syndrome? ...no? ...STFU AND GTFO."

"Could you be quiet, please?" wouldn't have gotten your terribly important message across? I don't think what you did was worse because the man had Down's. I do think it's pretty poor showing that it would have been all right to be that obnoxious to a healthy person. Swearing doesn't make you big, kiddies, it shows that you're inarticulate and have a poor vocabulary. Also, Down's is rather recognisable from the person's appearance. He was sitting beside you, and even if you're such a model cinema-goer that you had kept your eyes glued to the screen, you said you turned towards him to whinge, so drop the "o poor me i didnt kno".

I hope you find a bigger meaning to your life, cause right now you sound like a lost and angry jerk.

Good for you. Why should some retard ruin a movie you paid for?

Seeing as i know it is not your fault i understand but seriously why didn't you just change seats?. Wouldn't that have been the mature thing to do ?. yeah and you are how old? there are so many different ways you could have handled that.
