So, when you board the aircraft. What is one of the first areas you see? That’s right, the cockpit.

And who sits in the cockpit? Go ahead, you can say it...that’s right! The pilot and co-pilot!

Now. What do the pilot and co-pilot do? C’mon, you know. Very good! They fly the plane! You are very smart.

Ok, when you walk down the long tube to your seat, do you know where the cockpit is? That’s right! Right up in the front of the tube!

Gimme a friggin break.

'Whilst he was living in New York with his brother he had $13,000 stolen from him as well, so he has been going through some tough times. He must have had a mental breakdown on that flight..'.

Riiiiiight.

I always scream ALLAH AHKBAR! when I need to use the restroom.

I will from now on, but only on "number two" and I will try to time it to cover up the plop-splash.

The Yemeni man who was wrestled to the floor after pounding on the cockpit door of a plane approaching San Francisco may have mistaken it for the bathroom.

He must have ignored that presentation the airline staff give at the very beginning of the flight when they point to the restrooms and the exits.

'I know he wasn't trying to harm anyone. I know that for sure. He's not a terrorist. He's a nice guy.’

The cousin says so, so it must be true! Sheesh. If he just had to go to the bathroom, why was he yelling allah akbar (and beating down the door)? I mean, seriously.... this is so dumb...

“His painful joint condition meant he had to take regular walks on flights, they claimed.”

####

Inconveniencing everyone else on the flight by blocking the aisles.

Nope that demand alone, means next time you drive.

‘If a flight attendant has the nerve to grab me and try to force me to my seat, believe me, you would hear about other people having injuries.’

And your sorry but would have been arrested and banned from airplaines for life, too, dude!

The maths teacher, who was heard yelling 'Allahu Akbar' as he allegedly battered the door, had also only been on three planes in his life and would have been unfamiliar with the layout.

BTDT. Plane layouts are so complicated these days. They should at least put arrows on the floor directing passengers to the restooms. I mean, you make one wrong turn down the wrong aisle and you're lost for hours. Besides, who knew "Allahu Akbar" wasn't "Please, would you direct me to the can?"

'His parents died when he was young and he was raised by his grandfather but he recently passed away too,' he said. 'Whilst he was living in New York with his brother he had $13,000 stolen from him as well, so he has been going through some tough times. He must have had a mental breakdown on that flight.

Don't blame him - it's society's fault. Moslems think like libtards.

Never yelled it BEFORE going to the bathroom.

And sometimes people have been known to yell OMG!!! after I exit one...

While some do worship at the porcelian alter I highly doubt it was time for him to.

They are testing us again.

Well Rageh, if an arab looking guy assaults a flight attendant during a flight that I'm on -- believe me you will hear about some injuries on that guy too.

“I always scream ALLAH AHKBAR! when I need to use the restroom.”

As for me, I hop up and down saying, “Lord, Lord, Lord, Lord, Lord!” But it is subvocalized, and I don’t pound on the cockpit door when I say it.

"Stooopid man if he does not know where the bathroom is."

He won't be having that problem anymore. It will be right next to his bunk.
He will need soap-on-a-rope however.

"So does he always shout ‘Allahu Akbar’ when going to the john?"

I could understand the occasional ‘Allahu Akbar’ upon leaving the jon.
