Fatties eating into airline profits

(Boston I think). I was unhappy to find out that I would need to fall
asleep
again but the worst part came when a 300 + pound female sat in and around
her seat next to me. Not only were her arms so huge as to prevent her from
keeping the arm adjacent to me away from her, but the sounds from
breathing
problems and who knows what else was way too much for me to get any rest
at
all.

Yup, been there- 400+ pound guy in aisle, me in middle, hubby in window seat
(he's not small either, but not really a fattie- just a big guy, so I
couldn't squeeze into part of his seat.) Anyway, the 400 lb fattie smelled
bad too. It was so difficult for him to get up (he could barely squeeze
into the aisle) that I stayed in my seat for the entire 5 hour flight, but I
didn't have to pee too bad anyway, since I couldn't easily reach my water
bottle. Dude was spilling over his seat so much, I couldn't move.

Found out he was going to meet, for the first time, the girl he had met
online and was supposedly in love with. I felt kind of sorry for him,
wondering how she was going to react when she saw what he really looked (and
smelled) like. I hope it worked out okay.

I can't keep these huge
people from flying next to me, but I can make sure that I don't count on
using flight time to get my sleep.


dumbass, take a far east airline, like korean airlines. the risk of
being squeezed by fatties is far less.

See how so many of society's problems could simply be solved if people
would just ride a bike?


Looks like it's about time for Trek to start up the new Bulletproof Fattie
Warfighter line. I can see the ads now "Heavy Duty, Extreme Warfighting
Machine, Be the first in your Nascar fan club to own this speed machine. Straps
into the bed of your pickup with welded on anchor points. Ride it down to get
some beer and the newest hunting magazine, or over to the guys football party
and never have to worry about DUI after those Patriotic Pabst cold ones!"

Maybe she knows, and is herself probably a big woman. That's where the
internet is valuable- people who are overweight, let's face it, are
not going to be the center of attention at a party or a bar. WHere are
they supposed to meet people? THe internet is perfect in that way.
You actually get totalk to someone before they see you; lots of fat
people have met mates that way. Why not?

As before, DC is an outlier and the Rocky Mountain states
form their own parallel trendline.

Are moral values and self-indulgence correlated?

Hmm. Miami, Ft Lauderdale, Palm Beach as the closest counties to supporting
Kerry. Must be all those NY liberals who fled the NY weather.
