what happens if someone has a mouth full of chew and then they sneeze?

that might be the one instance I would want a big loud holler of a sneeze, just so maybe it would scare me away from the projectile diarrhea/cum shot that likely results.

So just during my quick jaunt over to City Center to get some tacos, 3 incidences happened....maybe I just don't like people.

First, a lady in front of me places 4 separate orders (all written down on a piece of paper) for her other fat co-workers. I found myself thinking how much I wanted to smash her face into the glass...is that bad?

Second, the guy behind me was this weird little dude that didn't understand personal space. I mean normal distance between strangers is at least a foot or more right?...this guy was literally like 1 inch from me. Weirdo.

Third, I'm filling my ice (there are two machines) and the guy next to me spills ice on the floor and just walks off without picking it up, so I end up picking the ice up and tossing it into the ice tray.

Lady multiple orders - 5 out of 10 annoying. Ideally, you bundle that shit up, and place one order, but who knows if she's to blame - could be anal coworkers.

Personal space dude - 7 out of 10. Sometimes I'll purposely just shift my foot back or stretch/swing elbows and pretend like I didn't know they were there.

Ice guy - 9 out of 10. If it was actual trash, 10 out of 10, but it's ice, so it'll eventually melt, but the people who think, 'someone else will deal with this, not my problem' after making a mistake like that can fuckthemselves.

personal space is a big one.

I can't tell you how many folks will approach me, and keep approaching me, and approach me some more, and I take a step back, and hope I don't get pinned against a wall, and they continue the approach until they're within inches of my face, just to ask how to get to y'all's pool.

Done that a few times myself.

Another one: People on planes who choose the window seat and sleep and close the window. I want to see where I am, damnit.

If you're a window seat, you get control of the window.
I'm an aisle guy and I understand that.

Sigh... I hate to have to agree. But they shouldn't sit there if they just want to sleep.

Peple on planes who use an armrest not by putting their arms lengthwise on the armrest, but across the armrest with their elbows into the space, even into the ribs, of the person seated next to them.

The window seat is best for sleeping cuz then you can lean your head against the window/wall.

Where else are you supposed to sleep on a plane??

On the aisle seat, where you get bumped by the beverage cart?

In the middle seat wedged between two fatties?

Actually between two fatties sounds kinda cozy. It’s like one of those little horseshoe shaped neck pillows, but for your entire body.

That is the worst. They should charge larger customers more and give them 2 seats.

Yea.
This is a general understanding with me as an aisler and those that go window.
I'm guessing there's a good chance you're gonna close the window and get some shut eye.

I can't sleep on planes and like to get a little extra leg spread into the aisle ( just enough; not like, i'm going to trip you kinda stretch ).

I wonder what % of people in the world actually choose ( if they have a choice of all 3 ) to go middle seat.

No one intentionally chooses the middle seat.
