190. Exactly.

(1) The parents of a family of four children book a flight on British Airways (BA) for the wife, the four kids, and the nanny to fly business class from point x to point y. The husband is not on the flight.
(2) According to the article, BA 'downgraded' the nanny's ticket to economy class.
(3) The husband then 'tweeted' about his experience with BA

I don't even know where to go with this. Posters are just making stuff up out of thin air, apparently because the family is wealthy. The kids are brats. The husband (posted by one who believes the husband was on the flight) is a dirt bag for not taking care of his kids. The wife should have gone to economy and let the nanny take care of the kids. One wonders if the wife knew which kids were hers. Or that anyone with 4 kids is a 'breeder'.

At least a dozen posters aren't even bright enough to realize that the husband WAS NOT on the flight. And when made aware of their error in comprehension just go to plan B, which is to rail on the rich guy.

Another poster, late to the game, wondered how the husband can "look after his own kids? this proves that some rich people are completely out of touch with most people's reality." REALLY? You're too dumb to realize he wasn't on the flight, and yet this proves that he can't take care of his kids.

I can site 30 posts that are so vapid it makes my skin crawl. I used to think that WE were the party of facts, logic, reason - NOT the knee-jerk, dogmatic, emotional one without the ability to engage in a reasoned debate. Sad to say I'm wrong.
