Passengers are out of control on flights (1 Viewer)

Flew Southwest today. Got stuck with a huge woman next to me. This incident was all I could think of. She was black. She was on her cell phone as she walked on the plane. She was very loud. She definitely should not have been allowed to board without having the second seat (which on southwest is free you just may need to pay in advance and then you get a refund). Had she been white I would have said something in a heartbeat. But since she was black I didn't want to have her shoving her cell phone in my face filming me and making up some story about how I only complained to the flight attendant because she was black and then shaun king tweets the story and I get a bunch of freaks stalking me online.

She was so fat she couldn't buckle the seatbelt. She was obviously very experienced with this issue because as the flight attendants come by checking to verify that everybody is buckled she put the belts on her and then she covered up the buckles and gap between them with her massive meat paws that have like 2 inch long nails.. 

So we are in the air and I have never been more uncomfortable on a flight in my life. She is squishing over into my seat and the damn arm rest is at 45 degrees because she cant push it down. I put headphones in and try and be calm. Only a 2.5 hr flight, right? Well at some point I see that I have all of these weird pink flecks on my arm. I take my headphones out to show my wife and ask her if she has any idea what it could be. I instantly realize as soon as I take out the headphones. I can hear this weird clicking noise and see that this huge lady is chipping the nail polish off of her fingernails and it is landing on me. At this point I say something. "Maam, you are getting your nail polish all over me." 

She at least stopped doing that. I am pretty pissed at southwest though. She is an obvious candidate for the extra seat and they likely intentionally ignored all the obvious signs with the hopes that she would sit next to somebody that wouldn't complain. Like those flight attendants dont instantly know who can and cant buckle a seat belt or wont fit between the arm rests.

Wait, what was the seating arrangement? We’re you in a middle seat?  If so, why?

I had a similar thing happen on Delta last week. Fat white guy. I board the plane and he’s in my seat (aisle). I say “you’re in my seat.”  He says “yeah, I’m too big for the middle seat, though.”

“I paid for the aisle seat” (read: I don’t want to be squeezed in by your fat ### either). 

Evetually the stewardesses have to get involved. I move to another aisle seat.  :angry:

You move the armrest down and if s/he still spills into your area, you mention it and if they do nothing, then you call the FA.

In my marriage, I defer to my wife in countless ways. Innumerable. But there are two universal truths - I get the big piece of chicken (credit to Chris Rock), and my much smaller wife will always take the middle seat if necesssary. 

When you boarded, did you actually leave the aisle seat open?  That’s a rookie move on Southwest unless you know for sure it will be a full flight. Shark move is to take the aisle and window seats as close to the front as possible and then pretend you don’t know each other until everyone has boarded. 

 
I always take a window seat. I can hold my piss for 10 hours i have have to and nothing makes me angrier than soneone that lacks the bladder discipline that i have.

It was a full flight. 143 seats, 143.5 bodies. 

 
The concave of the window seat actually has a little more room than the aisle.  I'm 6-4.  Fly SW all the time.  I pay the extra $15 to get an A boarding pass and usually get the exit row,

this is the correct answer...upgrade and get exit row.

I'm always in the aisle or window.  And I will lean over to talk to the person opposite of the empty middle seat from me in the hopes no one sits in the middle seat. It works quite often.

 
So I am a big guy, and very very self conscious on flights.  I do not push the armrest up with my legs and I buckle the belt with room to spare, however I have broad shoulders.  I go out of my way to lean to the window as much as possible to give my row buddies room.  In turn it kills my back.  So now in 2 weeks I get to go on a 3 week European business tour with multiple flights.  I am so looking forward to this.

I am convinced there are people who use the airplane toilet, not because they really have to go, but for the experience of it.

For the life of me I can't understand why it's so frequent that as soon as the seatbelt ding is chimed after takeoff, some jackwaggon in the middle or window seat next to me has to piss. We just left an airport with 100+ toilets in 5000+ sq feet of restroom space. Why the #### did you wait to use one the size a kitchen cupboard? Don't give me this #### that "I didn't know I had to go." What are you, 8 years old in a 30 year old's body? You damn well knew that venti Starbucks was filling up your bladder as you waited at the gate. You're either an idiot, or you just like checking out airplane toilets.

same here, I'm 6'1" 205  broad shoulders and do whatever I can to avoid a bad situation.  I literally just need 2 more inches, maybe an inch on each side and it would be fine.  As it is now, I have to play the seat game or pay for 1st class.

 
Side note...  I flew out of Montreal Thursday.  I was sitting next to some lady talking about her brand called Emrada.  I was wondering what the hell the brand was because this woman was stunning ( not as much as my wife) but you know.

Turns out it’s Emily Ratajkowski.......

It’s probably nerves/adrenaline.

When I was a kid we were so poor I never had the new video game consoles. I would play them at blockbuster. Each and every time I would get so excited I would have to poop so bad I’d have to run home just as I was making some progress in the game.

 
Never get behind people traveling with infants. I've never seen a stroller collapse in less than 20 minutes. Old people are worse. Their bodies are littered with hidden metal and they never seem to appreciate how little time they have left. Bingo, Asians. They pack light, travel efficiently, and they have a thing for slip on shoes. Gotta love 'em.

I try and sit in the aisle.  And I get up to go to the bathroom every hour or so because it's nice to stand up and walk unless you're on one of those really small planes where you can't stand up straight.  I also don't care if the window or middle want to go to the bathroom because standing up even for a minute still feels nice on my legs.  I wish they had standing only seats on planes.

Well you have a chance each of you would be punished with a fatty. I also imagine it is frowned upon to use a headphone splitter and watch a movie together. Also on southwest tge aisle seat gets screwed for under seat storage.

What possible issue would a splitter cause?

Well that's not exactly the same as saying "we split across the aisle"  that is a reason to not do two aisle seats becsuse doing so would be impractical so choosing two aisle seats makes little sense for them.
