Yeah, I’m tall and having my knees buried in the seat in front of me for 4 hours really sucks, but I’m not going to stand up during a flight and violate other people’s personal space by standing in the aisle. I’ll stand up at the gate as soon as I can...I don’t hurry to the front of the plane, but frick..my back and my legs hurt.

Mine has to be the people who bitch about the process in general.

Like the lines, having to take their shoes off, go through the detector and shite like that.

I didn’t even realize shite like this was bitched about until I saw an article on Deadspin (by one of the other subsites) complaining about it.

I’ve flown 50+ times in 27 years of my life. I show up two hours before and have never had one issue getting in/out. Maybe I’m lucky though.

My only issue with that stuff is the iq of some of tsa employees.

I generally show up way early, upgrade to minimize line.

My other pet peeve is the retard that puts their carry on up front not in their row and then heads to the back.

What's the best thing to tell your primary dr. to get Rx for that?


I tell my doc I dont like to fly and xanax is a godsend. He will give me a script for 20 xanax at. 5 miligram. None of the 3 docs I have been to in the last 5 years bat's an eye..... But I am very trust worthy in my appearance.....and I let them stick their finger up my arse.

People who think flying coach entitles them to some high level of service because they paid $500 or something like that. Yo dude, go call Wheels Up and see what it really cost to get from A to B. For how cheap coach is compared to other forms of flying , be happy you're arriving alive to your destination .

The BR airport is awesome if you can't get a direct flight from Nola. No security lines, parking issues etc. Granted I traveled on my company's dime for 10+ years and didn't care about the cost. It was always awesome getting there at 2 for a 2:45 flight

The entire families that try to preboard on the back of one person. US airports do a shite job letting like 10 people go with granny in the wheel chair.


A few weeks ago some fatty Livingston family was on my Southwest flight and fat Mom boarded in the early “A” group and tried to save two entire rows for the rest of the family boarding in a later group. That really pissed some people off.

BR is great. If MSY doesn’t offer nonstop there is no reason to go down to Kenner unless it’s a huge difference in price.

It’s happened on my last two flights, I was like wtf when I got to my seat and there wasn’t space for my bag.

It happened on our honeymoon flight as well, some peasant tried to put his bag in first class.

The dumbasses who apparently never flew before or how a TSA line works.

Some old hippie woman loaded with full pockets of strange trinkets, multiple layers of denim clothing, and refused to take off her shoes because she wasn’t wearing socks.

Gross.
Good thing she was back in economy and not up front with me.
Just kidding. I was flying steerage as well.
