There are fewer things in the world that incite more rage within my soul than traveling with idiots. No, not the traveling companions that may be with me, but the other morons out there traveling that lack common courtesy, human decency and manners.
These are the things that make me rage when I travel.
The Hurry Up and Waits
Y'all know who I'm talking about. The people that are hell-bent and determined to be the first to board the plane, the first to stand up to exit the plane and the first to check their bags, but in reality EVERY PART OF FLYING is a hurry up and wait game. So why stress yourself out being the first to get up as soon as the plane lands? Guess, what? You're still going to have to wait for all of first class to exit so chillax and wait your turn. RAGE.
The Drunks
This is the worst when flying. You can smell the alcohol on people as they stand in front or behind you in line and they reek of alcohol. Like, if you really are that nervous of a flyer, go to your doc and get a medication to help with it. Self-medicating with alcohol is just sloppy. And you stink! RAGE! Which brings me to my next point...
The Stinkers
Maybe you think your perfume smells really good? Maybe you just roofed a house before you rode in an non air conditioned cab to the airport. If you stink, your fellow passengers are going to loathe being in close quarters with you. For God's sake, please take a shower and withhold strong scented perfumes and colognes at least until you are out of the airport. RAGE!
The Constant Talkers
This one is not so much enraging as it is tiring. We don't need to have an entire conversation for the next 2 hours. It's okay to have a polite hello, how are you and then be quiet.
The Manspreaders
Listen, guys, if my 6'5" husband can fly without manspreading all over the place, so can you. Keep your arms and legs within your general area...unless you are first class. But then you'd never be next to me so do whatever you want.
I hate when people do not file out of planes and trains from front to back. Like no you can't rush up to the door, you dick. We all need to get off like right now.
