Some things just bug me. Sometimes I write them down!

For example - What is it that makes the concept of putting stuff into the overhead bins on airplanes so freakin’ complicated? People just don’t seem to get it, despite the repeated intercom begging performed by the flight attendants to put rollaways in wheels first, wheels first, WHEELS FREAKIN’ FIRST.

Even worse, there’s a subset of people who, when asked to move their bag to the optimal position in order to accommodate others, can get downright indignant. What is it with these people? Move your bag, sit down and shuddup already. They didn’t build that bin - or this whole airplane - just for you. Jeez.

I dunno why this bugs me so much. I guess it’s because the underlying message from such people is that they don’t really care how their behavior, stuff or actions affect others. We have enough of that kind of problem already in this day and age. We really don’t need it when a couple hundred people are jammed into a metal tube with wings and a couple engines hanging off a few bolts hurtling said flying torpedo through the air at a few hundred miles an hour.

Okay, I feel a little better now. Heh.
