You must spend an inordinate amount of time drunk.

I don't know what it looked like before, but Burger, I am impressed that you could get through the post with enough attention to fix any kind of formatting error.

I want you so bad.

Some of my friends would do this, except instead of moving to a different part of the bar, they would leave. The mark gets stuck with the check.

I like your version better.

First time there was no seat and she hovered until the one next to me opened. To keep herself entertained, she started talking to the guy onmy right, who was alone, saying shit like "you guys should talk to each other". "you guys seem like you would like each other". Yes she did.

Example please of how guys lay into the annoying guy until he leaves. And how this would translate if the annoying person is a babbler without a clue.

I'm never meeting you at that bar again until you shake that weirdo. I don't really appreciate a complete stranger telling me how jewish I look (NTTAWWT).

Clearly I have a high tolerance for, um, forthrightness (since I hang out with you) but that actually pissed me off. In fact, that's the second friend of yours that's felt the need to tell me that I look jewish.

This is completely off-topic but I now feel the need to ask every poster who has met me IRL to chime in on whether or not I "look" jewish. Well?

Can't tell, but you don't type jewish, if that helps.

Dissent. The Ignore List is exactly what's called for here. If she approaches, declare loudly that she's on your Ignore List, where she can be happy playing with [whoever is on her Ignore List at the moment].

If that's not enough to get the woman to leave you alone, alert authorities.

(Out-weird 'em, is what I say. Works for me, even when I don't mean to.)

Brillyunt. I will turn my back , blink three times and she will be doing an easter egg hunt with sunny bunny

You're mean. Do people actually PICK the aisle seat? I know I don't - I do the night-before check-in just so I can get a window - and so your assumption that I've given up my right to sleep is just . . . scary.

Aisle seats are great. I'm 6'2" and like the extra (one) leg room. I move it when the booze cart comes around. I don't sleep very well on planes and usually read the entire trip.

Or I fuck a stewardess in the lav. Either/or.

Yes - for extra legroom when carts aren't going up the aisle and that "not so squished" feeling that comes from only being jammed shoulder-to-shoulder with one complete stranger at a time.

You're not? Uh, if you get a call from someone claiming to know me and asking you out to dinner, make sure to order lobster or pork on the date to break it to him gently.

(Hey, I owed the guy a favor. Sorry.)

ok, just so people don't think I'm trying to say that all Jewish people are ugly and that's why I'm offended, I'm actually offended b/c I have (what I consider to be) a bumpy too large nose, and I think Paigow's friends are using the shortcut of: big nose = jewish and I think that's offensive (to both jewish people and people with big noses). I'm pretty sure there is absolutely nothing else about my appearance that would make someone think "Jewish!". I'm not exactly running around with a tattoo of a a star of david .

Well, this helps explain why you keep showing up on the no-fly list.

Jesus Christ people. Paigow just tell the woman you want her to go the fuck away and be done with it.

I find it funny that you use the "Jesus Christ people" for Paigow's annoying bar buddy conundrum (and don't worry, Paigow, I GOT THE FUCKING HINT THIS TIME) and not for the continued discussion of bnb's flight experience.

I'm actually ashamed to admit this, but I had to take a flight with a partner on 36 hours notice...he upgraded me to first class on teh way there, on the way back the plane was packed and i got stuck in like THE WORST middle seat in the back of the plane. Woman in the window is trying to sleep. Man next to me is in some opening act that's playing in town for the Temptations (i didn't know there were any left alive to carry the torch, but whatever)...whose also a massage therapist....he kept hitting on me and I realized the only way to get him to stop talking was to let him give me a massage, so for like three hours on a jampacked plane I had my hands, shoulders and back rubbed. It felt wonderful...he had great hands (was a bongo player of something)...and he was very upset when we landed and I wouldn't give him my phone number....if I had been that poor woman in the window I would have been through the roof....and when I was riding one of those personal movers at the airport with my partner in the morning, I heard the guy (who was in front of us and had no idea I was behind him) talking graphically to his band mate about what he wanted to do to me....i was so glad my partner had no idea who he was talking about.

so the point is i got the ONLY seat that was on the plane...it was that or walk back from CA.

I suppose this move could be part of the problem with his "swing."

Don't you mean his "schwing?"
