    We once travelled with a teething baby on a flight to Europe.

    He started screaming his head off as everybody boarded. I was very apologetic, but deep down I was secretly thinking "FUCK YOU, THIS IS MY ENTIRE FUCKING LIFE, YOU GET TO SHARE IT FOR 6 HOURS HAHAHAHAHA!!!!"

    I was only joking

      I was on a trip to/from Tokyo (fortunately in business class) and lady carrying a baby came around to all the seats in the section with a little bag filled with sweets and a note attached. The note was something like

      "this is my first flight and because I am so small, it may seem a little frightening to me. If I make noises or cry, I am apologizing in advance. I will try to control my emotions but may not be successful. If so, I am sorry"

        Bottom line?

        Airlines need to make a profit, but they don't need to stack people like sardines. Remember the saddle seats from a couple of years back?

        I'm not big on regulation, but seat widths and distances, and especially aisle widths, should be of adequate size.

          There’s a whole lot more to this story. The woman that posted the tweet is being hailed on one side and being totally destroyed on the other for fat shaming. She is being attacked relentlessly as a bigot and a fatphobe…

            Yes. And she remains unapologetic on that issue.

            How dare she?

              She’s a fucking doctor. Fly first class.

                I don’t think she’s that kind of Doctor.

                  she has a PhD in a subject not worthwhile to advertise on social media.

                  Education is extremely important.

                    I don’t care. I’m not a fucking doctor and I’m almost always in first class. If you want to be comfortable, pay for it. Either that or make the whole plane first class.

                      Personally, I wouldn’t want to fly next to somebody who called themselves ‘Doctor’ on the internet.

                      I was only joking
