Commercial air travel<65> outside of
|
|||
|
the overpriced<65> first class cabin<69> is
|
|||
|
like a bus trip with an aerial view. It
|
|||
|
has both good points and bad. I thought
|
|||
|
I'd put together a list of each.\c2
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
THINGS I DON'T LIKE\c6
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Salad dressing containers pressur-
|
|||
|
ized to 10<31>000 p.s.i.<2E> so that it's
|
|||
|
impossible to break the seal without
|
|||
|
propelling half the contents onto your
|
|||
|
suit.\c7
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
The way they mix drinks<6B> Fill the
|
|||
|
glass up seven eighths to the top with
|
|||
|
mix<EFBFBD> then pour the liquor on top so it
|
|||
|
sits there. (It can't be mixed because
|
|||
|
instead of individual ice cubes there
|
|||
|
is a miniature iceberg floating in the
|
|||
|
drink.)\c6
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
The flight attendant who walks up
|
|||
|
the aisle just before takeoff ordering
|
|||
|
you to put your seat upright. Sup-
|
|||
|
posedly you are safer that way in case
|
|||
|
of a crash. I don't care. This is the
|
|||
|
most uncomfortable position ever
|
|||
|
devised. It was probably concieved to
|
|||
|
extract information from prisoners.\c7
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Seats where the reclining mechanism
|
|||
|
doesn't work so that thay can't be
|
|||
|
moved from the upright position.\c6
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Anyone who sits in the middle seat.
|
|||
|
Even worse<73> Having to sit in the middle
|
|||
|
seat yourself.\c7
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Anyone with a bladder condition who
|
|||
|
asks for a window seat.\c6
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
The little kid in the seat in front
|
|||
|
of you who keeps bouncing against his
|
|||
|
seat spilling your drink all over the
|
|||
|
papers on your tray table.\c7
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
The little kid behind you who keeps
|
|||
|
digging his feet into you through the
|
|||
|
back of your seat.\c6
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Little kids on airplanes in general.
|
|||
|
The first law of air travel reads<64>
|
|||
|
The proximity of a screaming child to
|
|||
|
you in an airplane will be directly
|
|||
|
proportional to the importance of the
|
|||
|
highly technical reading material you
|
|||
|
must fully digest for a crucial
|
|||
|
business meeting at your destination.
|
|||
|
\c7
|
|||
|
People who bring the Sunday New York
|
|||
|
Times into the lavatory with them.\c6
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
The red carbon paper on the back of
|
|||
|
airline tickets that<61> after you put the
|
|||
|
ticket in your inside coat pocket<65> gets
|
|||
|
all over your white shirt. This
|
|||
|
smearing bears a striking resemblance
|
|||
|
to lipstick<63> that<61> if your a married
|
|||
|
man<EFBFBD> must be explained.\c7
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
People in line in front of you who
|
|||
|
decide to have the ticket agent book
|
|||
|
all the flight's the're going to take
|
|||
|
for the rest of their lives<65> as you
|
|||
|
watch your plane pulling away from the
|
|||
|
gate.\c7
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Phone inquiries answered by the
|
|||
|
ticket agent while your waitng in line.
|
|||
|
(why doesn't the caller have to wait in
|
|||
|
line<EFBFBD>)\c6
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Pilots who think the're tour guides.
|
|||
|
JUST FLY THE BLASTED PLANE!!!
|
|||
|
(Everything they point out is on the
|
|||
|
other side of the airplane anyway.)\c7
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Making connections through Atlanta.
|
|||
|
Who was it that said<69> <20>It doesn't
|
|||
|
matter whether you're going to Heaven
|
|||
|
or Hell; you still have to change
|
|||
|
planes in Atlanta<74><61>\c2
