Oh No She Didn't!


Are you ready for a jaw-dropping story about the plane ride home from Chicago? 

I made a lovely new friend. *note sarcasm*

Here's how it went down:

We had been warned multiple times by the gate staff that the flight would be a completely full flight.  

So by the time we boarded the plane, I knew that we would all be snuggling up with each other as we were seated in our neat little rows.

I always reserve an aisle seat now ('cuz I drink tons of water and get up to visit the bathroom A LOT).  I sat down and said a quick hello to the 30-something blonde woman sitting at the window.  She smiled and said "hi".  

She points to the middle seat and says "I hope the middle person isn't fat."  I thought that she was joking initially, but when I looked at her I realized that she was serious. I looked away and didn't comment. 

She then said "oh, I hope that didn't sound bad."

Well, it did sound bad b*tch.  Really bad.  I didn't respond to her and ignored her.

No one would have EVER said something like that in front of me two years ago.

  15. I would think/but not say: I hope the person in the middle seat isn't an idiot because we already have one in our row.

  16. I'm way less concerned about whether a person in the middle seat is fat and way more concerned if they are thoughtful or not. I have had skinny people kick the crap out of me or elbow me like crazy. Often, larger people are more consientious of other people's space.

    Window Seat was just thoughtless. Maybe she got a good lesson of "sometimes you may have thoughts that are better kept to yourself."
