I have no sympathy for anyone complaining about their flight to Hawaii.

One time the guy next to me was so fat that he had to use my tray to eat his dinner. At least he let me eat first.

Why does the seatbelt thing bother you? Who cares?

It's a complete affront to the airplane social structure. I'll admit that when I'm on a plane with 100 some odd people I'm sizing the crowd up, and people who ignore, can't comprehend, and/or break the "rule" in defiance are people you want to watch out for if the plane were ever go down on some uncharted tropical island.

Seriously though. Flight attendants and pilots work a hard gig and get very little respect from the cattle they haul around. To have the pilot and attendants give a very simple instruction and then to literally hear the click of dozens of belts being unbuckled... well, it's a sad sight (even though the attendants are used to it and probably care less themselves).

I don't know, that's one way of looking at a rule or law. Have you ever done a rolling stop at a stop sign? I mean, its a pretty simple thing to just stop at a stop sign, but if no one is clearly coming, what is the point? (and I'm the type who does stop at the stop sign anyway)

I guess I just don't size people up as much.
