Shit that annoys you

Well, thanks to him slathering up against me the whole time as his mass overflowed well beyond the armrest, I literally reeked of HIS BO until I could get to my hotel and shower up. Found a local laundromat too because those clothes stunk up the room as well. So freaking gross.

Even worse, is that studies have found links between obesity and reduced senses of smell, so many of them don't even realize just how bad they reek. Not to "fat shame" or anything, but as a person who doesn't spill over my armrest and intrude into other people's personal space, I find the notion wholly impolite.

I think you make a lot of shit up for attention and that’s annoying.

Did you at least mention this to the FA's? Plane was probably full as fuck but they could've thrown you a few free drinks I guess.

Lol. No free drinks, but the flight attendant who was having a tough time squeezing around him spilling into the aisle without touching him mouthed to me "I'm so sorry." A few drinks definitely would've helped. Everyone in a 3 row radius at least was not having a good time.

There have been tons of studies on it since, and what's crazy is WITH the decreased olfactory capabilities, it leads to your body's various regulation capabilities (insulin, metabolic, etc) decreasing as well, and ends up being circular where one thing causes the other. Probably why it's REALLY hard for people to break the cycle without some serious self-awareness and determination.

So it's a moral failing. Got it.

Not what I expected. It was amusing.

I had a flight from Seattle to Jackson, WY last year and the family behind me had inadvertently gate checked a bag with their kid's pacifier in it. For the entire fucking flight the kid cried and said "I want my binky" probably a thousand times. At one point the mom replied "yes, I think everyone on this plane knows you want your binky!" It was definitely annoying, but also tempered by the fact that the flight was only like an hour long or something.

A nice set of noise canceling headphones goes a long way, too.

I won’t get on a plane these days without those. Though if I ever forget them I guess I’ll be whining worse than that kid.

As far as babies screaming on planes, I always feel way worse for the parents than I do for myself or the other passengers. Flying with kids is fucking stressful.

Absolutely. I wasn't complaining. While it was painful to listen to, I felt for the parents and the kid. I was just surprised it was a slightly older kid than what I expected. And I was very impressed with the kid's lungs. I'm hoping she becomes an Olympic runner. FKNA!!! Seriously, one long scream seemingly without breathing, for an hour.

Game changers. I dropped an ambien before an 8 hr flight the other day and remember sitting down and waking up when the wheels hit the tarmac. Pretty amazing. The Mai Tais before might have helped too. I also slept the two hour drive home from the airport and a few hours on the couch while the wife did laundry.

My guess is mail order bride and that she’s drinking green tea.

I’m sure you’re aware, but it’s a troll job where they auto send it to a trillion phone numbers, only follow up on the ones that respond. Don’t respond unless you’re real lonely.

100mg gummy and I do not care what’s going on in the plane. Music is blasting and I’m chillin. Give me a good tasting beer or two for the remainder of the flight to sip on and I’m a happy flyer.

Expect crying kids in and out of SLC or you’ll lose your damn mind. Most parents seem to do their best. I remember flying with my daughter so I’m always going to offer a helping hand to said parents when they need one.

Again, always fly with cannabis in your system for a smooth trip. Trust me bro :D

I’m sure I’d trip balls and freak the fuck out with a 100mg gummy. Holy shit, that’s 10-15 times my happy place flying dose.

It's amazing how your perspective of kids on planes changes before and after you have your own.

5mg is my limit, I may try 7-8 for a long trip but I'd pass out or go in a dream state. 100mg is twenty times my normal limit. Sounds frightening. 3-4mg is enough to get me very stoned.

My teeth and gums hurt if I eat enough edibles to get couch lock. All other pain goes away. It has become prohibitive.

For context on 100mg I’m literally feeling like I’m falling through the floor of the plane floating like a madman. Many of you know I hate heights with a passion and planes aren’t any different until it’s at cruising altitude. Ever since I’m off those central nervous system depressants (benzos, known as the IDGAF pill), my heights fear has exponentially increased. I literally feel sick to my stomach and get a horrible feeling all over my body, it’s a physical response to (irrational, unwarranted) fear. On the pills I didn’t have too hard of a time but things have changed. It’s on par with what I’ve read as people having a panic attack. Maybe it is one.

But if I’m already falling towards earth on the cannabis, it’s all good. Well, at least for the most part.

My functional everyday dose is 10mg. My happy place is 25mg. My sit down and watch a movie and chill is 50mg, where I don’t even bother cracking a beer, not needed. My deal with airport people, chaos and going off the ground, 100mg please.

My mom was born on 4/20, my whole family is on the weed in some form or another, it’s been a way of life. Very few people understand this way of life and that’s ok. We are all unique in one way or another.

And yeah TS, I highly highly doubt I would’ve written that above statement about kids had I not developed an enormous amount of patience and understanding with my own child over the last almost 19 years.

And ZZZ, I like tripping ballz. :D

Doubt I was a danger to anyone as I was comatose. Lost my AirPods and they somehow ended up a few isles back. Fellow passengers returned them to me at baggage claim.

Before boarding a plane with my kids, a woman older than me walked up to me and said: "Just know that during the flight, 90% of people don't care that your kid is crying. Parents are right to be thoughtful about it, but don't stress yourself out. Some of us even get nostalgic about it." I always thought that was a nice gesture from her. And now that I type that, I realize that I also get nostalgic now when babies around me cry. It's been a minute since one kept me awake.
