6 Things People Do On Planes And In Airports That Really Piss Me Off

Flying is stressful, and these people just make it so much worse.

I've traveled many places throughout my life, and must fly to school, so I have been on many planes in my lifetime. That being said, there are some stereo typically people you find at every airport and see on every flight. Nothing that they do directly affects me, but it just really grinds my gears.

1. Run.

I know people can be really late for flights and need to run, but when I almost get trampled because you don't know how to manage your time I am not a happy camper.

2. Use both armrests. 

You cannot use both arm rests. You just can't. I'm not sitting the whole flight with both arms trying not to touch yours that stole my arm rest.

3. Get up right as the flight lands. 

They're not going to let you out right away. It doesn't work like that. Calm down and stay in your seat for literally 5 minutes.

4. Back up the security line.

I'm sorry Karen but you cannot bring 7 water bottles on a flight. And now you have made us all wait longer because they had to search your bag and we all got held up. Thanks.

5. Push

When boarding starts, people turn into wild animals. No one has any care but to get on the plane as fast as they can, no matter who they have to push out of their way. We are all going to get on the plane, it's not a race.

6.Thinking no female can lift their carry-on into the overhead bin.

This one is just for the ladies out there, but as soon as any female touches their bag to lift it up, the closest male pops up and does it for her. It's automatic. If someone is struggling, yes help them. But I can pick my own bag up thank you. Don't assume I'm weak.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
