When travelling you can always watch people. If you spend endless hours in airports, train stations and especially planes, it can be quiet entertaining.
On my last flight I had a blogger sitting beside me. Cute girl, writing frantically, occupying the whole seat between us with all kind of stuff.
She actually got asked by the stewardess repeatedly to put the stuff under the seat in front of her and all she did was looking at her like “I am gods gift to the world, you must worship me”. (By the way this facial expression makes you look stupid)
Interestingly these girls all look a like. Blond messy hair, nerdy glasses, skinny jeans, boots, heavy make up (even though it is supposed to look like none).
Why are people doing this?
Then the young successful consultant. Busy with his computer. I always think that these boys probably just started their jobs and think they are on top of the world. Then they marry, cheat on their wife and loose everything.
Then the fight for the armrest. No matter where you put your arm (I usually try to be nice) they alway, poke you with their elbows. How do they do that? An armrest is an easy concept. Stick to it!
