A lot of people are defending their in-theater phone use by saying they get bored during long movies. I get that. But here's the thing — boredom is a part of life. Movie theaters are shared spaces. You aren't entitled to distract other people from the art because you're bored.

Working on a special report about military recruitment. The Army, Air Force and Navy say they likely will not meet their fiscal year recruitment goals. Less and less people signing up. Looking for active duty or former military who can share their thoughts & experience with me.
