“How can a poor immigrant from Nigeria fly first class?”
Many of them have millions of dollars, and their biggest problem is getting out of Nigeria.
lol
Oh please.
You think those hell-holes have lots of running water and soap?
They’re poor.
How about...
Do you have two pencils???
Baloney. Too much soap and water in the world to stink. And if they just walked in off the savannah and left their spear at security, there are plenty of restrooms at the airport.
“how would the other passengers know she was foreign?”
As soon as she opens her mouth, you know.
GREAT QUESTION!!! She probably worked for an NGO!
my husband and i got on a train in Rome, and we could smell Africans on the next car over. We were correct.
My sense of smell is a curse!
“a really really bad smell.”
This isn’t BO. This is beyond BO. It’s BBO!
I hate when their neck plates clank together every time Im trying to take a nap

You’ve described the San Juan to JFK flights I now avoid at all cost.
Not baloney. You haven’t noticed how hell-holes tend to be very dirty? (And they tend to be unhealthy and scrawny for lack of good food and water.)
And then it is a habit, because they’re not used to having those amenities. If they get used to the idea, maybe they’ll start using the soap in those restrooms.
A man can wonder.
Are you talking about ebonics? Or something else, as I don’t recognize all those phrases.
You apparently have not been to mid/west PA and OH.
There is a whole weird grammar thing going on there that is not getting the attention it deserves (I say this as native MD who never knew about these “colloquilisms” until much later in life). And the bad thing is they are starting to transfer it to writing, not just speaking badly. I can spot a PA/OH person on FR half the time because they write this odd grammar. Not pronunciation - grammar.
That happened back when I worked in retail. Co-workers complained about someone’s body odor and they were asked to go home to shower.
There was a trick from the 19th century that most people used... a hankie saturated with perfume held to one’s nose.

Agree with your response. Very ignorant indeed and deeply sad.
What if she was topless? Should you be forced to sit next to her topless?
The answer to that question hinges on a few important variables.
