Kids Aren't Cheap

I wanted to take my kids to the movies, but did not want to wait in line to buy the tickets, so I called ahead to the theater to buy them over the phone.

I asked, "How much is a ticket?"

They said, "Eleven dollars."

I asked, "How much for children?"

They said, "Same price. Eleven dollars."

I said, "The airlines charge half fare for children."

They said, "Okay, put your kids on a plane to somewhere and you come to the movie. You'll enjoy it a lot more that way anyway."
