Ok. Don't believe it. I don't care.

I have no problem telling anyone what I'm thinking.

A number of people could tell you how I am.

Did he really say this to you? I'm a pretty reserved person most of the time, and even I probably would have told him to mind his own fricking business.

Don't care whether this actually happened or not, I laughed.

I don't either.

Dude was at the bar bragging about going to Denver to load up on "legal weed".

He just got onto my plane. Heading to Houston.

Why would your wear leather pants to travel and wearing about 2lbs of chains attached.

Dude wearing a purple V-neck t-shirt with a giant butterfly on the front. Who is now bothered that I wanted a damn beer before lunch.

Da hell is wrong with people?


One of the few times that you have the entire country's demographics in one place. It may have a slight upward bias on the wealth scale given the cost of flying, but almost everyone can save up to fly somewhere if they need to.

For me, it is the clearest example of the 'bubble' I live in. It also makes me realize the intelligence level of the average American.

I had a drunk guy that sat behind me last night flying ATL-DFW. They offered $600 voucher to get off the plane and then guy ran to the front of the plane. It was a cluster...guy could barely speak, was yelling down the aisle to his friend about leaving his bags.

I was surprised by the $600 offer...almost enough to make me consider it.

I love striking up conversations with strangers in airports. Air travelers generally don't give a frick and therefore are usually good conversationalist. I've met some interesting folks in airports.

He's not smoking meth in the airport bathroom. There are plenty of alcoholics in the upper crust.

I saw two guys wearing Google Glass for the first time at a wedding in California a couple of weeks ago... Plenty of eye-rolling.

I had a guy today at the BTR airport ask me if I was taking "the long flight" to ATL, even though he was on the same flight as me. Then he asked me if a passport was required to travel from one state to another, because airport security kept asking him for one he said.
