Is AUTHOR wrong in the post ? POST : So I’m your average theatre major, and had to go see a play at my college for my acting class (the play was Angels in America: Perestroika, a 4 hour long play). My older brother, who we’ll call George, was in a Intro to Theatre class, and had to see the play too. HOWEVER, he was not a theatre person, in fact, he probably hates theatre. He went to see the show with his girlfriend who I’m unsure of her opinion on theatre, and I go with my friends. 

About 3/4 into the show, he and his girlfriend leave and don’t stick around to see the ending. He told me it was because his girlfriend had to leave and her parents didn’t how about them (not too sure what the whole situation was there), and since they carpooled, they both left. He also admitted that he wasn’t going to sit through a 4 hour play (REMINDER: he had to for a class, AND write a paper on it).

When he told me this, i was very disappointed with him for, what i think, disrespecting the actors and hard work by not sitting through the whole show. He said he’d just Sparknote the rest of the play (good luck with that) for the paper. He then asked me to tell him how the play and, which i refused to do.

He got more annoyed with me and insisted I tell him, even though he was going to find look up the ending himself. It got to the point that he raised his voice and said “What kind of faggot ass morality code are you upholding?” If you don’t know the play, it deals with a group of gay people during the AIDS crisis, so using “Faggot” is ironic here. 

This really pissed me off, and i continued to give him the silent treatment, as he still told at me to tell him. Him saying Faggot was not an isolated incident, as he has used it to describe theatre in the past, and even used it towards me. Am I the Asshole?

TL;DR my brother left a play he was supposed to watch early and kept bugging me to tell him the ending, and went as far as to insult me and theatre as a whole.
