It doesn't get much worse than realizing you're about to sit next to somebody who's already lounged into their seat like that as you approach..
I get disgusted by people who simply take their shoes off on the plane. Even setting aside the public decorum part of it, the carpet of an airplane is disgusting. Shoes always stay on.
I can't do it on a long flight. Feet get too sore.

I don't mind it when I see my seat mate remove their shoes. But, to bring that foot up to seat level? Please, no.

How is the onus not on you to buy better shoes?

You gotta rethink your footwear if your feet get sore while sitting down.

I'm extreme in my hatred of other peoples' feet, but shoes off in public shouldn't be a 50/50 debate.

And besides, not like I'm walking around in bare feet. Only at my seat.

And yes, my feet are older than yours.

Back in 1971 when I was an intern we had a woman who contracted rabies from a bat bite. She died. The isolation procedure for her was very intense (for 1971) as her oral; secretions were considered so infectious. Only person I have ever seen with rabies. I wouldn't want to see another.

Somewhere out there, someone has a job of giving dogs rabies, waiting until they're frothing, and then collecting their saliva.

Or they're just frauds.

In this case, I really hope it's the latter for everyone involved.

This American flight from Miami to Las Vegas is pretty much a congregation of the worst people on the planet. Just unfathomably horrible manners and people. The next five hours are going to SUCK. Pray for me.

Just a complete fucking cesspool. A third-world city masquerading as an American city. Only good news about global warming is this place will be underwater in 75 years. I’m sorry I won’t be around to see it.

(And I’ll cop to some issues with the arrival city as well though those are mostly not the fault of locals.)

I rode a London to Orlando flight this year, and it was the worst of the UK on the plane. Drunk Geordie Shore wannabes everywhere.

Poole said it's possible someone crawling through a vent or duct fell from above and got stuck in the wall.

"That would be the most logical at this point … that it was from above," she said.

"So that is obviously something they would be looking at is someone crawling through the ventilation system."

OK, the guy was obviously a super creep, but holy shit, what an awful way to die. I wonder if they know, or will release, exactly HOW he died. Did he suffocate? If he'd just been stuck and got dehydrated, he should have lived long enough to call for help the next day, right?
