Showing Original Post only (View all)A story I heard today, regarding American Airlines. [View all]
I got my haircut today. My stylist told me one of her clients recently flew American. Before departure, the captain got on the intercom and said: "If you harass, menace or so much as touch any of the crew, the police will be waiting for you when we land."
Sad it has to come to that.

The soul of America is oppositionally defiant adolescents fearful of having to grow the fuck up.

Booze, 30,000 ft in the air, no escape - maybe loosened up with pills for flying anxiety
