Lol. Nah, your post was fine. Easy to read and very much to the point. Here's a gold star for you!
My other personality on the other hand, is a bit of a grammar Nazi & he notices something distinctly funny about this line:
"the spelling mistakes and grammar is atrocious".
But he's a bit of a dick so feel free to ignore him.

Back from Renfield Street, Glasgow. Might get my ticket angel to write to Virgin in regards to the security and also the actual virgin rep who sat down 30 minutes into the film and then every 5 minutes checking her mobile and sometimes even texting. Toffee popcorn was a nice wee treat though.
Film was pretty funny in parts. Some big names but none of them doing anything really. It was okay. Wasn't good but it wasn't bad either.

Toffee popcorn is awesome!
It's the best type of popcorn. Sweet and salt suck!

She's always really kind on the marking, unless she really hates it.

My name is Yinster and I love popcorn. Sweet, toffee, salted anything really.
The film made me laugh hence why I was kind to it. My OH made me laugh too when one joke according to her was just so funny that she was making some really funny noises.

Haha! I'm quite keen to hear which movies you found even less tolerable.
