I am much too nice to scam anyone!!1 And I do want to see the movie.
I...
…scam crappy movies out of ticket sales by buying tickets to good movies when I go and see them… so then I only support good films.
RocknRolla
Looks like a great movie
Nope
Unfortunately the closest thing I’ve ever done to scamming someone was telling my parents my grades were better than they were so I could go on a trip with my friends and then working really hard to bring them up before they found out, I would love to see the movie though
RockNRolla
When I first brought my wife to meet my parents I had told them that she had no teeth. When they met her their concentration was on her mouth. She did not know what was going on and she could not figure out why they were looking at her so stranger. Scammed them both.
New Movie?
Yes, please. I loved the first two films by this director.
RocknRolla
I’d enjoy seeing this film (by a director I once met in person).
RocknRolla
Now that I’m registered, YES PLEASE! I’d love two tickets!
scam
I got back at someone by scamming her too. I pretended to be someone else on the phone and she fell for it!
I scammed a gas station once
I scammed a gas station once I paid with a $50 and i was really broke, I was supposed to get back $5 and the cashier gave me a $20. i felt bad for a second, but whatever.
