I do pay more for luxury. But I think you're missing the point, which is that not everyone can afford to pay for a human-sized seat in business class. And sometimes, people find it necessary to fly places. Like for funerals. Or for fun.
Flying is ridiculous. Being dehumanized in any way is not "the price you pay" for a…

I feel like, as an adult, I am capable of sharing the armrest. However, I also accept that a lot of people won't act like adults, and feel the need to claim that space as their own. That's fine, I'm small (at least my arms are) so I will curl up against the window. It's why I always book the window seat, if it's…

God, people like that make me want to throw things and drink. WHAT MAKES PEOPLE THINK THAT THAT IS AN ACCEPTABLE WAY TO TALK???

First class is so much nicer nowadays, but the rest of the plane looks amazing. Look how happy all those old, rich, white people are!

In that respect, I definitely agree with you. I think women are more likely to be squished by rude people than men are.

The Internet doesn't help, at all. But Doctor Who believes in the goodness of humans, so we can't be all bad. =)

"But you're wearing pants!" "Yeah, there might be seepage."

It's true, that many women tend to have more bad experiences with men on planes rather than other women. We should definitely acknowledge, though, that women can and do act the same way, with the same entitlement, and the same shitty attitude. It's less of a gender issue and more of a privilege issue, I think. The…

I always book the window seat and I used to feel bad for making people get up when I had to pee. Then I realized it's a stupid thing to feel bad about, because most people are kind and understanding.

Yeah. I try to be understanding, because I know that flying is really not a good time for most people. I love flying. I love airplanes. (I mostly fly international and I ALWAYS use Air New Zealand. That makes all the difference in the world, which I know from personal experience.) If you are, in any way, larger than…

Hahahaha that sounds fantastic, and if I had heard that I would've high-fived you. I don't speak to people on planes if I can avoid it, because I am incredibly awkward in social situations and people make me anxious. Usually I am intoxicated in one way or another, though, which makes flying easier. But hopefully that…

She sounds like one of those people who has a big presence, which is fantastic. Listen, if a guy or woman thinks that it is ok to rub legs with me for HOURS on a flight, and they are not able to read my body language and know that they should stop, I will step on toes or slam my knee into theirs. Politely.

Yeah, he sounds EXACTLY like the kind of self-entitled prick I've been seated next to on a few international flights. The kind that assumes that all women would LOVE to be touched by his legs and arms and whatever other body parts he's flinging around in that tiny, cramped space.

I always appreciate it when they rub their legs on mine. I tried to ignore the guy doing that on my last flight to Australia and after two glasses of wine, I finally pulled my knee away quickly and then swung it back so it cracked into his leg. He stopped.

I don't know how or why, but it still shocks me how absolutely HORRENDOUS people can be. You know what? Flying is RIDICULOUS under the best of circumstances. It is even worse if you know that everyone on the plane is not-so-secretly judging you. And for all the people who think that it's only overweight people who…

Nope, Modesto is definitely the meth capital of California! YOU CAN'T TAKE OUR TITLE, FRESNO!!!!

This gif is all my favorite things… Wendy and drugs. =)

Headphones and earplugs. And resting bishface. This is how I survive air travel.

Well… It's officially after 12 over here, so I'm going to go pour a glass. Or two. In tribute! And memory! That's it. Mmmmm...

We can all come together and agree that nothing is as bad as Australian pizza, right? I mean, no one really wants scrambled egg on their pie, do they? REALLY?
