I can't walk around so I don't know, but who are these people who walk around barefoot? I mean, I have seen it. It seemed like in college you would come across one of these hippies from time to time, but there is shite everywhere to step on that could hurt. If you are not paying attention there are sticks, pinecones, acorns, pecans, caterpillars, something someone dropped and didn't notice. Some trashy arse mother who changes her kid's diaper then just throws it on the ground. Dog shite. There is all kind of shite out there that can be stepped on.. And on an airplane. You have no idea what has been up and down those aisles.. Put some shoes on you ignorant fricks.

They wanted to be that. But realized their mistake by allowing that

How bad does it have to be where you actually have to make these rules.

There are homeless people everywhere...
This homeless guy asked me for money the other day
I was about to give it to him and then I thought he's just going to use it on drugs or alcohol
And then I thought: "That's what I'm going to use it on!"
"Why am I judging this poor bastard?"

I walked behind this guy the other day. A homeless guy asked him for money
He looks right at the homeless guy and goes: "Why don't you go get a job, you bum?"
People always say that to homeless guys, "Get a job", like it is always that easy
This homeless guy was wearing his underwear outside his pants
I'm guessing his resume ain't all up to date
I'm predicting some problems during the interview process
I'm pretty sure even McDonald's has a "Underwear Go Inside The Pants" policy
Not that they enforce it really strictly, but technically, I'm sure it is on the books

Its sad but a lot of parents don't teach standards. Thats why we have people in public wearing pajamas and expand their ear lobes.

I always fly in and out of Atlanta and the A-H Airport has a display case set up with examples of items that can't be taken on a plane.

A five gallon can of gasoline. A kerosine camping lantern. A gas-powered leaf blower. All manner of ridiculous stuff.

But what that means is that for everything in that case, some idiot tried to actually take one of those items on a plane.

We live in a very big country with lots of people. Even if only 1% of them are unusually stupid or ridiculous, that's still enough very strange people on average to fill up a college football stadium in every state.

I don't think anyone spanks their children any more.

I remember when Reggie’s did this. Spirit can expect a call from editor the Reveille

I could fit a change of clothes in a backpack avoiding the carry on fee and the tickets were something stupid like 30-40$. I saved about ~100$ a ticket or so. I’m cheap so if i see that kind of price i always have trouble justifying a couple hundred dollars for an hour or 2 flight when I’m traveling alone. I would never do it with the family


I’ve done it with the family one year. Tickets were like $50 round trip to Orlando. Kids got the small suitcase that fit under the seat or a backpack, and we checked one big bag for overflow and the wife. Still came out a lot cheaper.

Sounds like Spirit is trying to revamp their image from ghettoliner to normal transport.

Isn't it basically known by everyone that you almost always end up spending more flying with them then you would if you just flew like United?

And then you compounded the savings by buying $18 nachos or burgers multiple times a day.
