Honestly IME adults are the fucking worst. The worst flights I’ve spent have always involved entitled asshole adults being rude and annoying.

YES. I was just thinking that I would 100x rather have a crying baby than blaring an Elmo cartoon on your iPad for the whole plane to hear.

There really needs to be a book about the teenage girl section of the internet circa 95-99. When we had Angelfire and gURLpages and webrings and cliques, and a few rich girls had their own domains and UBBs for us to flock to every day after school.
