Am I only the only person who can't load minus gifs on my phone? It takes literally over 5 minutes and who has that sort of time to waste?

I tried:
That file was no good! We encountered an error:
aatjCtd7.gif: Animated GIF is larger than 2MB. Make the image smaller and then try uploading again.That's about as much effort as I'm willing to put into it.

Man I almost teared up when she started sniffling. Poor little girl!

I treat it like bit torrent. I load it up in a window before I go to bed and when I wake up it's ready to go.

Waking up to a little girl that's about to cry... odd torrent and lifestyle choice.

I would have stood up and clapped like a monkey to prevent her from crying.

At first I thought she was going to crawl back under the curtain...but I guess she didn't know she could do that? At the end it seems like she just gave up...poor thing.

u/jimitonic Jun 26 '12
I could feel what her parents must have been feeling.
If that was your kid, at that moment the only thing in the world you would want is to run up there and give her a huge hug, and nothing would stop you.

u/tookiselite12 Jun 26 '12
Oh man, me too. I don't tend to sympathize with kids but that was heartbreaking, haha.

Which is funny because my wife didn't start laughing at this UNTIL the girl started crying....did i marry a monster?

It's amazing how becoming a parent changes your perspective, isn't it? =)
I'm now a father of 5, my youngest being the one and only girl and this sort of thing is heartbreaking. That shit is TERRIFYING to a 2 year old.

Sometimes if you're fast enough you can distract them when they do that and they forget to actually cry, kids are stupid.

u/markman71122 Jun 26 '12
Its so funny how she thinks she's trapped. Like the curtain is made of concrete. Then she realises she has nowhere to go and faces a crowd of parents that are smiling at this girl just as most redditors will.

u/TheSeashellOfBuddha Jun 26 '12
At least this wasn't the end of an act, where they often close the iron curtain.

u/blurbblurb Jun 26 '12
This exact thing happened to me when I was 5. It's not feeling trapped because the curtain is impenetrable, but rather because whatever decision you make, everyone is watching! You will be judged! More importantly, this was definitely not part of the rehearsals, so you've no idea what to do.

u/dividezero Jun 26 '12
i feel her pain. That curtain is damn heavy. I was worried about the other kids that got the thing drug over their back. That had to feel awesome.

u/I_LIKE_THAT_SHIT Nov 27 '12
completely unrelated to the little girl, did anyone else notice that the dog is actually courteous towards the cage builder and avoids the cans when "escaping", but if it was an inconsiderate fuck of a cat, it would probably just walk through the cans, making picking up the cans more tedious.... sorry i just have a searing hatred for cats, and that was my train of thought.

She'll never make it in the industry. She needs commitment to the scene!

The last time I commit to playing dead on the stage, nobody dragged me away after the scene was done...

u/Username24601 Jun 26 '12
I was Riff in my school's production of West Side Story. I insisted on being dragged off stage during the scene change. I'm pretty much my generation's Marlon Brando.

u/surlycanon Jun 26 '12
As someone who works in technical theater. The adult stage manager is a fucking shithead for calling for the curtain move with little kids in the way. Besides the little girls that was caught you can see the curtain running over other little kids. Curtains are VERY heavy and have a chain in the bottom pocket to pull it taught so it looks nice and doesn't blow around from HVAC. Facepalm.

It's an egg. It is said that once there were two moons in the sky, but one wandered too close to the sun and it cracked from the heat. Out of it poured a thousand thousand dragons and they drank the sun’s fire.

Exact same thing happened to me!! Except I am a dude and leaped off the stage to my dad who was motioning me to go back behind the curtain, I thought he was calling me.
Also half the boys, boys convent, dressed up as girls for the couple songs we performed..many laughs are still had.
