Jim Carrey dies.

Now playing

I’m convinced that was put in the movie just to get adolescent boys interested in a Dirty Harry movie. I know it worked for me at the time!

I suppose I’m a fan of you closing your Kinja account and shutting off your computer...

Actually a trespass charge on a plane always ends with jail time. Their hands were tied

What? No. She didn’t hold up nothing, they wouldn’t let her move seats. 

This is such a hot take, I just vomited.

Plus not every adult wants a kid-like adhesive bandage, so yeah it matters to some people

The issue is that she felt entitled to hold up an aircraft with passengers and crew for something they were not in a position to promise.

You guys seem to be skipping the bit where she agreed to leave when Frontier assured her they would provide accommodations for the night and a voucher.
