Movie Theater Scam

Movie Theater Scam

A machine resting in a hallway
In the theater near home
Made me want to drill the thing
And fill it full of holes.
It authorized my credit card
And stuck me with a bill
But wouldn't print the tickets
To let me view the film.
So I shouted rants out at the clerk
Who didn't really care
It must have happened all the time
It must not be that rare.
Eventually they printed
And fell down through the slot
They got me past the ticket taker
Who'd been beyond earshot.
Next time I buy a ticket
I'll keep a careful stash
And never use a Master Plate
It's not as good as cash.
