Airports and the decline of humanity

It's the new bus stations.

Humans are slobs. This is normal.

Should’ve flown private for those standards of yours

Been that way for a while.

Sad, really.

Once again is it that difficult to throw a pair of jeans on and a decent shirt? Maybe splash some water on your face so you don’t look completely crusty?

I don’t have a problem with this one.

I do agree with you on the other three though.

I posted this in another thread I’ll just repost it here:

People are unbelievably lazy. Making a point to take a minute before you leave the house to not look like a smelly dipshit has some how not only become frowned upon but actively suppressed. It’s bizarre. I just don’t understand the acceptance of minimal mediocrity as the maximum acceptable standard these days. Get off my lawn. Yell at clouds. Blah blah

Taking pride in the little things you do everyday and how you present yourself is a small but important thing we’ve collectively lost as a society.

Stop the snowball of laziness in the morning before it becomes the avalanche of apathy in the evening and the landslide of mediocrity in your life

Also, don’t get an attitude with me if I move your purse or laptop bag to make room for my carry on. Hold your personal items like the instructions say!

And who wears flip flops to the airport? Geesh

i used to like to watch people in high traffic areas. airports cured me of that

Only queers care what other men wear!

I don’t like it, but it’s a fairly obvious outcome once society embraced the “I don’t care what anyone thinks; I’m going to be comfortable” mindset.

Here’s the thing though. It’s not meaningfully less comfortable to wear reasonable looking clothes, sneakers, etc. rather than flip flops and PJs. They make good looking, comfortably casual options now and people still opt to be the lowest common denominator in growing numbers.
