    When coming back from Portland a few weeks ago, I sat next to a young girl with TERRIBLE B.O. She was actually kinda cute but I was gagging most of the flight, I had my nose covered by my shirt and I turned away. It was fucking rank.

    How do you know you weren't smelling yourself?

    I am kind of obsessed with personal hygiene. I have a very low threshold for bad smells.

    When I was traveling a few years back, red eye flight overseas, a woman goes into the bathroom and 30 seconds later is followed by some dude. Ok, not too surprising. They come out, go back to their seats and a half hour later she goes to the bathroom and 30 seconds a different dude followed her in. About an hour later happened again with a third guy. After that the the woman goes to return to her seat and the stewardess had to tell her the restrooms have a capacity for one. Every guy in the cabin was paying attention by then.

    well something was getting blown.


    the chick was a hot 30 year old, the dudes were all different and none were sitting together. I never quite figured out how it was getting arranged.

    Might have been an actual porno. Don't recall seeing that one but there is one where a guy gets a blowie in his seat on a half full flight. Be hard to fake a commercial airline video (no pun intended) but it is certainly possible they could have gained access to a plane somehow.

    I just flew united to Miami and back. They suck.

    Miami is the dopest place ever though.

    I went to a Travis Scott after party at this club called Story on Miami Beach. Holy fucking shit. So lit. I had a blunt in one hand and a drink in the other. The strip clubs there are waaaaay better than Portland strip clubs too.

    Something that annoys me is that tons of asshats run to get on the plane first, before their supposed to be seated. Generally in fine with that since it just means I get to relax a few minutes longer and stretch my legs before boarding, but sometimes when you wait, they have no room left for overhead bags and they make you check the bag instead. Both ways you get screwed,

    Can’t saying anything, not giving club Fed any evidence.

    I used to fly a lot for work. Plus my X was a fight attendant, so I could fly for next to nothing. Had a lot of great memories and met a lot of interesting people along the way. Good times.

    Only had two scary close calls.
    1) The jet almost flipped over while landing in Juneau Alaska from a very strong wind gust. The wind was so strong it stood the jet up on its tail. The pilot did an outstanding job getting it back under control and landed safely.
    2) While landing in Atlanta, the controller had two jets landing on the same runway at the same time instead of using both runways. Our wing tips almost touched. Everyone screamed and both jets peeled away at the same time and circled around for a second try. This was when Regan was busting the AirTraffic Controllers union with temporary controllers.

    Toward the end of my frequent flying, it was starting to turn into a cattle drive on a bus. Don’t miss flying at all now. Sounds like a real hassle to fly now.

    It annoys me when they rush to deplane from the back and push their way through.

    Apparently some woman had to pee really bad when there was bad turbulence. They gave her a cup or something.

    If they'd let her get up and she got hurt they'd get sued so what were they supposed to do?

    If that annoys you, then don't visit China and ride one of the older trains most of the migrant workers use to travel. You will begin to know about annoyed when they cram as many people in each train car.

    I fly United often. I'm not a fan but they always seem to make it right.

    Was recently booted from a flight on Alaska Airlines. I suppose it's better than United would have done - I found out 12 hours before my flight instead of being dragged off...
