As I woke up this morning, I was energized and excited for my mecca back to the great state of Texas. Everything started beautifully, 2 McGriddles, 1 POWERade, 2 new magazines and a fully charged ipod, I was thinking smooth sailing.

Well, it has been everything but that...

Upon boarding my first flight, I hear my name called over the loud speaker....this is never a good sign, but I think to myself, "maybe they are going to upgrade me to first class, I deserve it..." Instead, I am informed that the second leg of my trip will be delayed by almost 4 hours. I board my flight, and as I find my seat a young woman (single mother) purposely pushes me in the back (claiming it was accidental) obviously trying to rush me so that she can get to her seat. Keep this woman in mind, she is a major reason why my day is so awful. I courteously take my seat, letting ol' girl pass by. I get out my ipod, magazines, and turn off my cell phone. Over the intercom, I hear, "Flight Attendants, please prepare for departure." Finally, it is time to leave.

Now, as the flight attendant comes through asking for drinks, the story gets more interesting....

I am sitting, listening to my music at a fairly low volume....the person next to me can't hear it, but ol' bitch from before is yelling at me from across the aisle saying that she can't nap because my music is too loud. I nicely turn it down, and continue upon my way, but all the while, her dumb little 5 year old kid is running up and down the aisles making noise and screaming at the top of their lungs. I didn't say anything, hoping that somebody else will. Anyways, the plane lands, and as I am waiting to get off, this woman is standing behind me, bitching as usual. She taps me on the shoulder and says, "I didn't mean to yell, but I couldn't nap, your music was soooo loud" I nodded and tried to ignore her. She apologizes again, only to hear me reply the following way, "If you were really sorry, then you would go apologize to every other person on this flight that couldn't sleep cause of your devilish child."

Fuck that bitch, maybe if she were a good mother, her kid won't turn out to be like her, but I doubt that she has ever taken the initiative to get off her lazy ass.

Damn, now I am all upset and today was supposed to be a good day

Dude, You chose the right path so do not let it bother you. My ex has been a flight attendant for 18 years and I worked as an airline super for awhile out of college. People are f****d up and do not care about any body but themselves. I bet most would not have the calm you chose. Kudos to you for taking the high road. I have been through and heard stories hundreds of times worse than yours. Better the man to bite his lip and move on as you will never come across her rudeness again.

Have a good remainder of your trip.

Sucks for you, but good story.

My guess is that you didn't actually say that to her. You just wish you had, and are instead telling us that you did.

Otherwise, you would've provided us with her response.

And regardless, why wouldn't you have just told her to get control of her kid, especially if it was a long flight? Just to be nice? If you were just trying to be nice, then you wouldn't have said something to her once you got off the plane (which I suspect you didn't...so maybe you WERE just being nice). What a guy.

Because the mother is ignorant and selfish, it should have been the FA duty to tell the mother to parent and keep the kid quiet and with her.

Agreed. At worst, someone should have told the flight attendant to do something.

At least you said something about her kid running up and down the stupid aisle. What a dumb bitch to complain about your music but when her kid runs around like it's a playground, it's OK to do.

Seriously people have no control of their kids or they just don't care what they do when they're out in public.

You were more calm than I would have been. I see the stupid kids running around the restaurant where I work. They think it's a playground and they run around when servers are walking around with trays of drinks and food. Then in the waiting area the kids will roll around in their Wheelie.

One time these girls were running back and forth in the waiting area. When they got near me at the bar, I said please don't run around any more. One of the girl runs back, trips, falls, and starts crying her eyes out.

I didn't feel bad for one second. She got what she deserved.

Oh man...flying can be such a nightmare. Before I moved to Vegas I used to commute by air, sometimes 3 RT a week. I've been bumped, bitched at, stuck on a tarmac for 3 hours, sat next to a 6'10 UNLV basketball player, coughed on, farted near, and sat next to a freak bitch who had never flown and had a panic attack in the middle of hte flight and stood up screaming "The plane is going down, we're going to crash". And nothing worse than a bitch stewardess on a power trip.....Southwest has a few of those.

Now, my buddy who lives in NY, he flew out to LV about a year ago. Northwest bumps him to first class. Then on the way home he meets some chick who gives him head at 30,000 feet. Motherfucker.

Flying into Seattle about 7 years ago, we were about to touch down and all of a sudden the plane jerks up like crazy and we start to circle Seattle. Stayed circling for about 45 minutes. Later come to find out that there was a mixup with clearance and we were trying to land on a runway that was already in use. Scary stuff.

Has happened a few times to me...each in San Diego in the fog, landing reverse from normal landing route...one time I swear we were 30 feet from the plane below us before the pilot went full throttle...

that is no doubt a bad feeling.

100% right. You can tell he is too much of a ***** to say that because he turned down his music earlier.

The kid has 33 posts here and he's already being called a *****. Welcome to the rubber room BigB...I hope you have a sense of humor.

Because his story is bullshit, that's why. You're telling me that if you were posting about how you told some unfit mother that she should handle her retarded kids better, that you wouldn't have posted how she reacted? Gimme a fucking break. I saw bullshit, I called it out. That's what I do. Sorry if you don't like it, but I really don't care. Work on your reading comprehension skills.

And if you think I made that story up about the girl and my bed, that's fine, I don't mind. Think what you want. If that's the case, I appreciate the compliment you're paying me of being a writer who can come up with an unbelievable amount of detail, and also somehow set it up so my posts would be in conjuction with a realistic time that it'd occur. Apparently you think I'm dedicated enough to stay up till 9 a.m. simply for the reason of making a post on the Rx. You flatter me too much, Timetopay.

Oh wait, I actually posted a video of the girl from that very same night, while she was putting her pants on backwards, complete with dialogue of me telling her it's not that complicated. Nevermind, guess I wasn't making it up.

Timetopay owned 3/28/2007.

This is the Rubber Room...you and themanej2001, go have sex, then work on your RR-posting skill, so you don't get dominated down here anymore.

And while you're at it, get off my nuts, will ya? You keep trying to bash me, but you do such a piss-poor job of it that no one even bothers to comment. But seriously, just move on with your life, you're wasting your time trying to bring that weakass shit here. Especially when you contribute even less to this place than I do.

Regardless, the stalking needs to stop. Scratch the sex with themanej2001, you and A-Train should definitely be together. And that other guy who tried bashing me. I can't remember his handle.

And...you're done.

Alot of verbage from you and dont remember saying your name as I actually didnt even remember which bag of wind made up that story. Just a regular of RR.

So now Im stalking you and WC. Maybe its just the fact I end up at the same posts and your responses are just easy to ridicule.

Trust me. Me and Manej are not equal as far as posting and you dont want to continue to match of wits as you SURELY will lose.

Now go spend somemore time on those basketball pick as those have been dreadful lately as have your posts.

Love all the courage we see here in the RR. Anyone who calls someone out, other then saying its BS, is totally wasting their time. I come to the RR for laughs and do not hide behind the screen. Too old but still tough. You kids get off on these rants and it makes me laugh that you have the time to go back and forth over nothing. Just like Heat.

Skins, you and your partner are well studied in my mind. I have the same humor as you guys but do not enjoy or have the time to call people out.

I can remember when the internet first came out and had a dial up 1200 baud speed modem and was downloading a 1 meg file. Left to go work out and came back and it said 49 minutes to complete. Remember those days?

I just wish I could have most of these jokers be back in the day when there was no screen to hide behind. 99% would not say these things to our face.

I have a 11 and 6 year old that already ask what the line is, who is favored, and can work Word better than I can.

This is a great place. Sorry for the rant but a few too many Bud lights tonight.

Would love to meet Skins and Desethi at the bash. You guys have allot to offer this forum. Future moderators until you get a real job.
