In the future, airlines will use suspended animation and stack us in the plane like those bodies in the movie Coma.
I totally believe that they're just biding their time until that becomes acceptable. And I'm not remotely kidding.
I tell you I have this theory. It goes where, you're the one who's not my sister. Cuz mom adopted you from a shoe box full of baby howler monkeys, and never told you cuz it could hurt your delicate baby feelings.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I fully expect them to stack us in tubes and charge extra for the coma.

Ann, that's a ferret.
I remember a Steven King short story where they did that. Except it was for traveling to Mars.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
In the future, the cheapest airline seats will work like this: When you arrive at the airport, they cut off your head and stick it in a cardboard box. Then when you land, they attach your head to somebody else's body. When you do your return trip, you'll supposedly get your original body back, but you know how airlines lose your luggage now? Yeah, that'll happen to your body. Eventually no one will care.

I also wonder how those evil seats would work for people who deviate from the average in leg length. I can see Snooki not being able to get her feet on the floor! Or, say, children, you know? Who do ride on airplanes and are actually people who have rights, despite the opinions of many commenters to online articles.

I have to avoid caffeine today because I'm having a sleep study done tonight. Ugh. Not looking forward to the day.

At least you'll actually get some sleep during the sleep study?
Re Tommy's travel plans, I wonder if it's possible to have Lo-Jack installed in your body?
