I admit, flying is a most beautiful experience that we are lucky to experience

Not if your plane is delayed for 8 hrs and you hit the booze at the lounge, cop a middle row and 15 people are lining up for the toilet as soon as the seatbelt light goes off.

or when you’re on a flight to L.A. in the second last row and the row behind you has several people with Tourette’s. So you spend 15 hours copping short loud screams with uncontrollable kicking your seat. It really is a transcendental experience. Just beautiful really.

other than that 😂

I admit that sitting next to sir les patterson's long lost twin brother wasn't great ( I asked to get moved ) or being felt up by a creep or having my stuff stolen or them playing john williams songs on the intercom or the guy in front playing sick pron on his note pad or having the same menu as they have had the past ten years

other than that if I can look out a window at least a little, that part is great
