I am just so, so tired of being constantly inundated with being told to CONSUME.
What else would you like to do? seize the means of production?
Yeah, but no one wants to join my radical anti-government militia.
Well, they do, but I’m in TN so it’s for the wrong reasons.
If you’re in a plane, you deserve it.
Careful, your ignorance is showing
thanks, I’ll just abandon my family
Shouldn’t be that far away from them in the first place if you actually cared.
This is fucking hilarious. Do you know that sometimes, people go elsewhere for economic opportunities? Then they bring their children after they get settled in?
Sometimes they go back, and leave the children there.
Do you think those kids should be stranded?
I don’t care lol.
Work where you live, it’s not that hard.
sometimes people don’t want to live in the middle of nowhere forever. not many engineering jobs there. we all want economic mobility too
The ultimate quest for wealth is worth destroying the planet.
Also vast majority of people take planes for leisure, I’m sure we can deal without them. People used to travel the world in sail boats and they still managed to get where they wanted to go.
“oh no everyone has phones, nobody needs these shitty displays anymore should we remove them and replace them with a phone holder?”
“I have a better idea…”
Don’t forget your trusty a4 and duct tape to plane.
Time for me to whip out my trusty old Black Sheet’o’Paper and masking tape…
Cunts
Good luck with that. I’m gonna turn that bitch off one way or another.
Preferably “accidentally” damaging the screen
It is a matter of time before they figure out how to do targeted ads in dreams.
If they do that, I will laser the optics off soviet early warning satellites and start thevnuclear holocaust. I think everyone would like that !
Can’t wait to see adds for prostate exams or erectile malfunction on a plane when I get older.
Psssshhhhh, you won’t see them. It’s a 3 hour plane ride where you have no responsibilities, surrounded by people that by this point in the day you already can’t stand.
At that age, you’re telling me you WON’T fall asleep???
“At that age”
Buddy, how old do you think people are when they’re supposed to start checking for prostate cancer?
I don’t know about prostate cancer, but I do know that apperently I waited too long to check for colon cancer. Just spent a year recovering, and I’m only 40. It was probably there already for a number of years.
So, start getting screened when you’re 5 years old, I guess…
Just a few hours away from returning back to the dirt in the ground surely?
On their deathbed, a man shows up to deliver strong pentrative action to a geriatric patient.
Ya know, send em’ out with a bang.
Nothing that some Self Adhesive Vinyl can’t fix. They’ll have to deal with getting it off the screen afterwards too. Want to fine me for it? Then tell me where you got the data, because I didn’t consent to you having my data.
The little guy always wins!
In david and goliath, david won. In the tortoise and the hare, the tortoise won. Rey Mysterio vs the 2006 Royal Rumble, Rey Mysterio won.
Hmmmm, you may be onto something!
That’s what I’m saying! And I’m sure we could make up dozens more stories too.
You bought the ticket right?
While in the EU or California, what ever works better…
You probably did/do consent at some point, but nobody reads the fine print.
Calling into United:
Hey I see you charged me $400 for a replacement screen? Tell me, where did you buy the targeted ad data you used to display ads on that screen? Oh, an agency that I signed terms and conditions for at some point? Shit, alright then.
I mean, fuck United tho and they will not be getting and damn money from me.
So… How long before tape and blank paper are banned on planes?
I Vaguely recall that in the dystopian world depicted in the Max Headroom TV series it was illegal to turn off TVs. It felt bonkers to me when I was a kid, but now it doesn’t seem too far off.
Oh look, yet another reason why not to fly anymore!
TRAAAAAIIIIIIIINS.
I wish I had train options where I live
I’ve heard they are great to cross oceans.
Distance between mainland Eurasia and mainland North America is 86 km. But you will have to use 1520 mm gauge.
Man, we should break more stuff.
And I’m sure this in no way will invade people’s privacy.
“Hmm, why is the anti-queer politician sitting next to me being served dozens of male underwear ads? Hmmmm…”
“Why is my daughter receiving ads for newborn diapers? Hmmm…”
“Why is my neighbor receiving ads for anger management? Hmmm…”
Why is my neighbor receiving ads for anger management?
He probably gets aggressive when seeing too many ads
“I’m sorry ma’am but could you please remove your jacket from the seat? It’s obstructing the ads and we have a very clear policy about that”
🙃
To begin the flight, please drink Mountain Dew Verification Can.

They could come up with some bullshit like, obstructing your screen is interfering with the display of critical airplane safety information or something.
Remember when the assholes at United overbooked a flight and sent someone to knock a doctor’s teeth out and carry him off a plane? The doctor refused since he was on his way to oversee the opening of a clinic he founded for veterans.
He and his wife started the clinic as a way to thank American servicemen and women, because he was plucked out of ocean waters by the U.S. Navy as he fled communism in his home country of Vietnam about 44 years ago, he said.
Fuck United Airlines.
United will kill your dog, bust up your guitar, and knock down and drag out your doctor. They’ve made the headlines for all three of those. And the guitar guy made a song about United.
Unfortunately, the other airlines aren’t much better.
