1) Why, why, why do people stand in line in the terminal to get on the plane that's 20 mintues from boarding as if it's first come, first serve. They seat you by row yet morons still stand in a line like it's a race.
This is what makes me laugh. I guess everybody wants to make sure they get their carry on the flight before they run out of room. I check in my luggage and bring a backpack on board so I'm usually one of the last ones on. Also it would help if the people that have aisle seats actually wait and let people with window seats get on first. Instead people get on board with aisle seats first then have to let people with window seats in clogging shit up. For some reason that pisses me off.
I had one woman in front of me who was Asian after we scanned our boarding passes going from Atlanta to Salt Lake City. They ran out of room for carry on for the overhead bins and the rest of the bags had to be checked. She really wanted to take her bag on board and was wrestling with the Delta Representative for the bag. Her English didn't seem great so that was a problem. I just went around her and people followed suit.
I wouldn't call the baggage claim an annoyance because it's a comedy show for me. The woman that was next to me for the flight and myself went to baggage claim to get our suitcases. Well unlike a lot of the idiots there, our bags actually stood out. She had a bright lime green suitcase. I had a black suitcase but had orange and yellow tape on my handle to easily identify mine. It may be ghetto but it works. We watched has people were grabbing the wrong bag and watched one old guy walk off with another dude's case until he stopped him realizing he got the wrong one.
Just for the record I'm the guy you want to get behind. I don't take liquids or any other bullshit on board. The only thing I have to put in the bind is my slip on shoes, phone, wallet, keys, and sometimes belt. I have perfected the belt off/on in wonderful fashion that I may do a youtube video for all those who are slow as fuck putting the belt back on. That's all I carry on my person.
Here are some tips for those out there.
1)- If you are a fat fucker, then wear slip ons. Not boots!!!!
2)- Women, keep the jewelry to a minimum. Oh you are wearing your earrings and have to take them off and now you dropped them and are holding up the line. That's just great.
3)- If you have coats, jackets, or other meaningless items........... take the shit off before you go through the metal detector.
4)- Don't be that person! You all know what I'm talking about.
