That’s no man. That’s Lena Dunham.
I’ve flown many times. Best flight Singapore air biz class la to singapore
if a man has a good sense of humor and can make a woman laugh, he’s got it made. Women love that kind of man.
Love the insight... just last weekend we were discussing the era when commercial aviation was a civilized way to travel... it was in a thread where someone linked to an old film I had never seen before... from 1961 called something like The Flight That Disappeared.
Men wore jackets and ties, ladies nice dresses. Pilots were all ex-military, stewardess pretty and smartly dress... and I was struck by the width of the seats and the aisle... 2 flight attendants could easily walk.around each other in the aisle.
Then there was the whole smoking light actually being turned off... a “lounge” section, and the cockpit door wasn’t reinforced with Kevlar.
Very elegant.
And I reflected on today... slobs in sweatpants and hoodies... the whole cell phone thing... getting groped by TSA... does the laptop need to come out of the bag this week? If I want a cigarette and have to go outside, you mean to say I have to go through Security screening for another 45 minutes?
All I can say is I feel so awful for flight attendants having to put up with people that don’t have the class required to ride in the luggage bin on Greyhound.
That’s amazing... Sometimes I wonder if flight attendants would ever become interested in a passenger like that... hey a fella can dream can’t he? Still, I guess that was a different time... all women now-a-days automatically disrespect men... and the men have given up being men.
You probably want to steer clear of “allahu akbar” too.
If you’re enjoying the flight, never say you’re having a blast!
Click on the photo’s, things not to say are under each picture.
Here’s a challenge for you Mr. Bono.
You are proud that you wouldn’t help someone with a sick child?
You are a genius, sir.
I remember that episode: defender of Benghazi
Scary
ROFL!!!!!
Classic.
Bossy
Say that now, and you're liable to get thrown out of the plane.
What difference does it make
True story: there was an infamous flight attendant, and likely one of the most senior on any airline, named Zoe. If you were ever a flight attendant, you might have heard of her; her stories are legendary in the biz. I have no idea how many times she has been fired, but I think the following episode was one of them.
Anyway, Zoe was trying to get a passenger in Business Class to properly stow his luggage and sit down, so that the plane could push off the blocks. When she insisted he sit down, he did the ole "Do you have ANY idea who you are talking to? Do you know who I am??" And she just looked at him, walked up to the front of the plane, picked up the handset, and announced to the entire plane, "Attention passengers, there is a gentleman in Business Class that doesn't seem to know who he is. Could someone please come up and identify him? Thank you."
By the way, I flew with Zoe to Rio. I was very junior and was called out on reserve to fly with this very senior crew from Miami. When I saw her, and then saw her behavior, I knew that every single story about her was true. It was also confirmed by the crew I was flying with. "Oh yeah, she's crazy." they told me. I just tried to stay out of her path. As a little silver-winger (probationary period for the first 6 months), I was rightly scared of her.
