I'm just trying to tell you that we have nothing in common besides both of us liking your penis.

(And, as I think of it, wasn't Kevin Smith tossed off a flight even though he fit between the armrests? So it concerns me.)

no, Kevin Smith got tossed off of the plane because he had bought two seats so that he could be more comfortable, and they wanted him to give up one of them, and he refused.

Doesn't make him a nice guy, but why couldn't he buy two seats to make himself more comfortable? If you already paid for them, why would the airline dictate that? I know it's the right thing to give it up so someone else can travel, but why would the airline care if the money was the same?

They oversold the flight, it was for their convenience.

So, were they meat-meatballs or vegan meatballs?

They were meat-meatballs. A big ole Walmart bag of 'em in the crockpot with some tomato sauce.

Also, lentils. (in a different pot)

"What would it take to get your daughter to stop tweeting about this?"

Was it in first class? I'm assuming yes, because Kevin Smith, but seems like they wouldn't want to piss off the high dollar customers. The riff raff back where the rest of us sit, yeah, kick our asses out the door.

I guess I should focus on 'he could fly' because I'm not as anywhere near Kevin Smith size so ---check that off my ruminating list.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Didn't they tell him it was because he was too big? I thought I remembered that about the kerfuffle.

"What would it take to get your daughter to stop tweeting about this?"

I thought that was what he was tweeting or blogging or something. He said it was because he was too big. That story must have changed.

I broke down and called with 10 minutes to go. He will be here in another 20 minutes. I totally had time for that bath. I'm not going to take one now, even with the extra time, just to punish him.

It was Southwest so no classes.

Wasn't any kind of company policy but a misstep on part of the gate staff.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I have a long weekend booked away! I'm so excited! And my boss asked if I didn't want to take any time off before then...

Sadly, I need to take an extra day off so I can go to the ER when I come back, but I guess I just need to factor that in from now on. I haven't seen this friend in a gazillion years, and I've been remiss in keeping in touch, so this is long overdue.
