I just want to sleep and get it over with. Flying has become hellish for me . Everything sucks. The cost, the lineups, the hassle of security, the delays, the price of a bottle of water, the horrible service, the discomfort...
BUT YOU'RE FLYING! You are sitting in a chair. In the air!!! You're like a Greek god right now.... YOU ARE FLYING!!
I swear the Wright brothers would kick us all in the cunt right now if they knew... "Hey Orville, they're gonna make us wait on the runway a bit." "O shit, it hardly seems worth it then."

I've flown about 20k miles in June and July from Seattle to JFK and back due to my father going missing.
I'm so over flying right now.
I'm still going to have to put another 5k miles in this month, and I'm not looking forward to it.
Did you find him?
He was found in the middle of field, covered in chemical burns, and in a coma. He was trying to "burn the microphones" out from under his skin
Unfortunately, not but a few days that he was released from the hospital, he passed away in his sleep in my chair in my living room
I'm organizing a funeral on both coasts of the USA as we speak.
Sorry man, best of luck. Mental health problems have become an epidemic.
