D) All of the above.
I like looking at people. I was at the mall by myself today and I was watching the high school kiddies arrive and circle and swarm. Made me think about some other human behavior I have noticed.
POP QUIZ
You are a normal straight guy (if you aren't, pretend) and you go watch a movie with a male friend of yours. Maybe you go to watch that new Jet Li movie or something. Your friend enters the aisle first and he chooses a seat. Where do you sit? Do you....
a) sit next to him (you homo)
b) sit next to him with a seat in between (what are you a homophobe?)
c) sit in an entirely different aisle (what if you want to share popcorn...that shit's expensive)
I went to watch Hero with a group of friends (it doesn't matter where we sat cause it was a big group). There were two guys sitting in front of us who obviously knew each other but had the "we're here together but we're not gay" middle seat. It's not like I've never seen it before. I've even participated in this stupid ritual. But I wonder why it exists. When you see two guys sitting together at a movie, do you automatically assume that they are gay? I don't know. Its just something to think about.

i've sat beside a friend without leaving an empty seat, why? you may ask, well it is just fucking funny to annoy the fuck out of your friend...
aunque la verdad me divierto mas cuando me siento alado y cuando esta comiendo palomitas le refundo el puño de palomitas en su boca y se esta ahogando o cuando esta tomando soda y haces que se le derrame toda en la camiseta i don't know i just like to annoy the fuck out of people :)
