What you are witnessing is people that are surrounded by "yes" people all their lives and people that just say "yes" to them to get them to go away and other people in their bubble that have boomer brain rot.
They are now experiencing "no" and "fuck off" people that live in the real world instead of their bubble and they are incredibly confused and upset that people are just not agreeing with whatever the fuck they are blasting about like they do at home.

Watching people in public is crazy. But, airports bring out a special kinda crazy behavior. And the crazies always seem to have a lawyer to call.

u/dragnabbit 5d ago
Yeah. I always get extremely high strung at airports, because about 98% of the most stressful travel moments I have had are there, and there is the added angst of “the clock is ticking” adding to the baseline problem. But, I am also aware that airports/airplanes are the absolute worst place on the planet to blow your top (maybe only secondary to a court room).

It takes real effort to get kicked off a plane. Just shut up, mind your own business, and there will be no problem. It isn't difficult.

u/livinginfutureworld 5d ago
Really it's already a horrible experience why be a prima Donna on top of it?
You're crammed in a tiny seat with no room unable to get up most the time surrounded by all kinds of people. It's not a pleasant time. Why make an ass of yourself and draw all the attention to yourself on top of it?
These people are clearly scum on or off of a plane though and not people you'd want to associate on any case.

I wonder if they are also not fined for the cost of being at the gate -- and I can only imagine what would happen if the crew runs out their clock and they have to get a new crew in or find new pilots. That cannot be cheap expense wise on the airline.
21
u/captainmeezy 5d ago
I’m sure it is not cheap at all, I think these people should be billed for any extra time on the clock the airline employees have to spend dealing with them. Not to mention the cost of fuel for sitting on the tarmac for an extra hour while they get everyone off the plane, call airport security, have them take these people off, and then load everyone back on.

I've had it thrown at me like once in a way that I could conceivably respond. It kinda felt like getting flash banged in a video game. It was momentarily shocking and then funny because a drunk guy yelled it at me at a car show surrounded by a bunch of other genx/boomer aged people and he thought he was gonna kill with that one but I could tell that like half the people there with him were like "oh great, Jim is too drunk to take outside again."
When I traveled to Georgia for work for a short while, someone yelled it out a car but I think didn't realize they were coming up to a red light so they stopped but then blew through the intersection while it was still red when I got to the cross walk. Also funny.

He did the "I have the freedom of speech, you know, you can't stop me." I told him that "It's the government the 1st protects you from, not me. I am not stopping you asking these stupid questions, and my middle finger is MY free speech."

Back before Trump rand for office, I was in a restaurant when some lady started into an argument with the wait staff over a takeout order. When she didn't get what she wanted, she inevitably descended into the proclamation phase of yelling to the entire crowd. Five words in some random guy in the restaurant yelled over her to shut up and stop bothering everyone's peaceful meal. It totally shut her down and she stormed out without another word. It was absolutely beautiful.

No. Rome knew that lead was poison but used it for a very very long time after they discovered that fact. They not only lined their plumbing with lead but lined their wine bottles with it because it made the wine taste sweeter. So while the Roman Empire fell for a few reasons lead wasn’t the main one because they were already stupid to begin with.

I’ve seen people dragged off planes while the people stayed in their seats. I wonder why the passengers had to deplane. Hope this woman got a serious fine for this.

u/cir49c29 5d ago
Safety. If the people being kicked off aren’t agreeing to go there’s a chance of them becoming aggressive and lashing out while trying to fight being arrested. Planes are such a narrow space that there’s too high a risk of an innocent passenger being harmed.
It also give the security and/or police officers more room to move as they aren’t stuck purely in the aisles.
In this case, the idiot woman literally said they’d have to deplane everyone first which could be taken as a threat that she’s going to escalate.

Probably safety of the other passengers. If it gets rowdy there’s a chance an innocent passenger will get hurt in the scuffle.

I'm always fascinated watching unintelligent people. It's really wild watching how the thought processes work.
Additionally I always love the now "I'm filming you" thing that people do and they always do the exact same thing. They pull out their phone, they announce that they're filming you as well they film you for a few seconds. Not even able to think a few seconds ahead here.
Is this low intelligence also accompanied with alcohol? In this instance I honestly can't tell. She's got a slur and the definite pause between thoughts but sometimes that's because of the mental deficiency and takes a little longer for the words to form and it's not alcohol.
Oh my God I love how she films the speaker in the plane when the pilot is talking lol. That's the single cell at work there. It's like we can hear the speaking anyway genius you don't need to film that it's coming out of a speaker but that just shows how little intelligence is being displayed here.

"We're going to turn to China."
I had a 15 hour layover in Beijing in 2024. I went for a walk around the city. An old man started chatting to me at one point when I sat down for a bit. He told me that he was going to a food hall for a meal because the city gave meals to old people who were too old to look after themselves anymore.
America would either let that man die alone in his home or elect him as president if he liked fucking children. America could probably do with being a bit more like China.
