We Have WORM SIGN!
It’s probably not a shocker that February is generally a slow month for movies. Every few years we get a Black Panther, Thor Ragnarok, or Deadpool movie in February, but those are the exceptions.

What is the perfect time to run and pee during a movie?
Your bladders have spoken, and we were listening. Infinity Peecoin owners, who were using the RunPee Timer, were given the option record when they finished using a Peetime.
