Wedding Woes

Judging people in the airport

Lets be real, if this was a job I'd be the Patti Stanger of this sh!t. FYI, I love that woman, and I like watching her Sensa infomercials. Anyways, other night on one of my flights I saw a man and his wife get on with the wife's elderly mother. Husband takes his seat near the front of the plane, wife walks elderly (and hard of hearing) mother back to the plane. Sits her in a middle seat alone then goes back to sit with husband. That's just douchey- if that was me someone would sit with mother while a healthier, younger adult would sit alone.

    maybe the mom sucks as a person and since they were stuck on a flight with her, this was the only option that did not result in a murder.

    Or maybe the kids were annoying and the mom preferred it?

  • I judged the crap out of the Germans who let their children eat on the floor. My mom judged them for traveling with children to begin with. You'd judge them for the McDonalds they were eating ;)

    I don't know. But honestly, if it sucks flying with either individual then why are you doing it? I mean plenty of people drop their half-alive, actively dying family members off at the airport every day and hope they get to where they are going.

    Well, if they die, they'll certainly get to where they're going.  <em>::ba dum bum:: </em>

    I can picture this w/ my recently deceased slightly evil grandma...

    Mom:  "mom, I'm buying us seats on X flight"
    Grandmother:  "whewehwehwahttwat<charlie brown teacher noises"  To expensive!
    Mom:  "Mom, if I buy the seats now, it'll be reasonable, if we wait, it won't be.  And I'm not in good enough health to spend 4 days driving you, with your mannequin riding shotgun"
    Grandmother:   "You buy your own then, *I* will get a cheap ticket later
    Mom:  Ok mom  *mom goes and buys 1 refundable coach ticket and then 'good' tickets for her and dad*
    wait 3 weeks until day of flight
    Grandmother:  You mean you actually expect me to sit in coach?
