The "Unwritten Rule" (Throwing trash on the floor)

Growing up going to the movies with my dad was an enjoyable experience. It was enhanced by the magical fact that it was the only place you could simply throw your trash on the floor when you were finished with the snacks you smuggled inside 
22 years later, and suddenly my fiance drops a bomb shell on me! Its wrong to throw your trash on the floor! In fact its even frowned upon by movie theaters with most commercials before the picture saying "Please throw your trash away in the acceptable areas".
This is a fucking outrage. A blatant disregard by both my fiance, and the movie establishments on "The Unwritten Rule". One way or another im going to throw my fucking trash on the ground . I just got back from watching 50/50 (which was pretty good by the way ) and when I pay $18 for a fucking matinee (2 people)....you bet your ASS your going to be picking up my fucking garbage.
Anyone else feel like this? Was a raised incorrectly? Was such a norm non existent except in the eyes of my backward ass family?
Tell me im wrong!

seriously? So its not just my fiance. This is bullshit. This is about honoring a time honored system dating to the 80's/90's.
Imagine a world were you were forced to watch "Twister" and hold on to your trash until the end of the picture! MADNESS!

I guess I never experienced that. I was raised pretty damn christian, so everything was very tidy, and I was supposed to treat others as I wished to be treated.
With that said, I once worked at a movie theater, and one of the worst tasks was picking up others trash, specially foodstuffs.

If everyone always left the theater neat and tidy im sure a few people would be making the switch to part time.

Nigga are you serious? You thought it was acceptable to throw garbage on the ground so other people can pick it up instead of everybody just putting it where it goes?

No no no....throwing your trash anywhere else is barbaric. Its horrible for the environment and rude for wherever you are (except the movies!). Thats what made the movie theater so special. Just throw it on the ground!

no I got minimum. which sucked. But I mainly made pizza. But, I did not work at a regular movie theater you see. At this place, you could go in, Order a pizza, get a pitcher of beer, and bring it in with you at a table inside the theater. So there ended up being a lot of garbage.
If people made less of a mess, the people who's job it would be to clean it up could learn a more worthwhile skill that would benefit themselves and others.

But not everyone in society wants better skills. Some people need something as trivial as picking up garbage. THINK ABOUT IT! Throwing trash on the floor creates jobs, stimulates our economy, and supports our future!
This isnt about movie theaters anymore, this is about America

You've got it all backwards, brah.
There IS an unwritten rule about throwing trash on the ground, but it states that anyone who litters in any place is a lazy pig that doesn't deserve to share the same public space as respectable people.

Quit harping on this guy. It is normal to throw garbage on the floor when you go to the movies. It even helps employ people- so the next time you democrats try to spend 400 billion to spur jobs in the economy, just remember it is actually as easy as littering...
I'm serious.

I'll throw away the drinks but not the wrappers! No way those people need to stay bizzy working! If i pay $10 I'm going to throw that candy I payed 6 bucks for on the ground. They over price things, I'm going to enjoy myself. That includes defecating on the seat next to mine. 
I don't even waste the ice, with no refills you bet I'm going to chomp down on it. Pfft a small cost 2$ I might as well eat the cup as well.
(half is sarcasim but the rest is true!) op nothing wrong with it.
