Let’s talk airline travel: What pisses you off?

Mistakes like this one is why I would never try to become a pilot. I learn by mistake.

Sounds like a great reason not to fly.

Interesting. One of the commentors had a good point why aren't there cameras in the cockpit? My dad worked for Union Pacific for 40 years and at the end you couldn't pick your nose without someone knowing about it.

Pilots probably negotiated not having cameras so they can get Bjs from the flight attendants

Women who rebuff my advances. You only join the mile high club, might as well be with me, I tell them.

It drives me crazy thinking I might have to be on the same aircraft as a TN fan. That would even make it possible that I would be seated next to one too. Spending a whole flight listening to some guy talk about why "this is the year TN will win it all", smelling the meth he just smoked in the bathroom before boarding, and the possibility that the oozing rash just above his knee is contagious and uncurable is all just too much for me. That is why I prefer to drive if my trip is under 24 hours. I know I'll have to share the road with the few that could afford a car and that learned to drive, but that is no big deal since as a Georgia fan I am the most dangerous thing on the road.

We Nebraskans drive everywhere anyway, bub.

You Atlanta drivers are fucking insane!

You Atlanta drivers are fucking insane!

This is true.

Several years ago, we drove to Florida for a little vacation, went to Daytona and drove through Atlanta at about 9:00 pm. HO LI FUK...just getting passed on the interstate going 80 like I'm standing still.

Also, before we got to Atlanta, don't recall the interstate, think it was 24 from Nashville to Chattanooga...holy white knuckle, people were hauling ass going down some steep grades.

You? You who? Wait, what now? You just call me an Atlanta something? I'd rather go into business with Freight Pimp Dawg than be Atlanta anything. Take it back.

I don't even notice honestly when driving through. Usually more worried if traffic isn't moving. Only place I know that has traffic jams before 4 in the morning or just all the time random ones. Visiting my mom I have to drive through that hell hole. 4.5 hour trip can quickly become 7+ hours. I worked as an aide for a Rep at Georgia Statehouse a long time ago, and had to be on the road by 6 to get to work by 8 am and from only 10 miles North.
