    All Corgis All the TimeIsha Aran

    I wish there was some kind of colour-coded seating arrangement on planes. Those who wish to chat - blue seats. Those who wish to be as anti-social as possible - yellow seats. Those who are going to be projectile vomiting all trip - mauve seats.

    That way, we could all organize ourselves accordingly. And if you violate the sacred seat arrangement, a giant brick drops from the ceiling and knocks you out the rest of the flight.

      I will fly your airline. Happily.

      Can there be a section for, "I just want to talk with who I'm with- not you, guy on the aisle"?

    Ari Schwartz: Dark Lord of the SnarkIsha Aran

    Seriously, who are these people who make these apps thinking they're good ideas? They're not. Making connections with people should be organic and equally based. I don't want some doxxing asshole coming up to me asking about shit I posted on FB years ago. I want to have the opportunity to share that with them on my terms when the time is right. Same thing goes for me.

    Fuck all of this. Fuck all of you who think this is a good idea. It's bad enough we can't get wi-fi free time on airplanes now, but I at least was able to be mildly anonymous on a plane if I wanted to just be an anti-social cocoon jerk. Now I have to worry that people are going to sniff me out with apps?

    Fuck everything about this.

    No, I'm not being cute or snarky, either. I really legitimately hate this shit.

    It would be nice to have a 'check-in' option that just comes with options like: "Gregarious. You can talk to me!" and "I will cut you if you try to interrupt my reading."

    I only want to creep on the pilots. To make sure they haven't been writing horrible updates every 10 minutes for 28 hours straight or posting pictures of themselves partying and boozing it up when they should have been sleeping and/or meditating on the seriousness of keeping my ass aloft and alive.

      "Ever wanted to really get to know the people with whom you are trapped, encased in a tin can hurtling through the sky for any number of hours?"

      I have sort of a dark soul so I would likely change that statement to: "Ever wanted to really get to know the people with whom you will spend the last few hours of your life with?"

        Wasn't that the entire premise of "Lost"?

        I'm surprised Facebook itself isn't already selling the opt-out feature of this after implementing it without warning and consent, quite frankly.

            Maybe? I'd probably feel a little less like strangling a fellow passenger that was making my flight horrible if I knew they'd just been dumped, or were flying home for a funeral, or something.

              Yeah but then you see pics of them rockin' seersucker shorts, green blazer, and bow tie while smoking cigars and playing croquet outside college dorms and you're far more likely to strangle them.
