Snakes on a plane . . .

Postby Xyn_Air » Sat Dec 01, 2007 5:14 am

. . . are one thing, but plushy crocodiles?

Story here.

Sigh.  Makes me wonder why some people find it so hard to follow simple instructions when they go on flights.

"Ma'am, we're sorry, but we need you to move your stuffed croc.  It is blocking the emergency exit."
"No!  Snappy gets claustrophobic when he's put in the luggage compartment or under the seat."
"Ma'am, Snappy needs to be properly stowed before we can take off.  In his current location, he poses a safety hazard."
"Safety hazard?  Safety hazard!  I'll show you a safety hazard!  Kill, Snappy, kill!"
Assault by plushy ensues.

Thanks for letting me know about the link problem (it's fixed now).

And plush is just another term for stuffed animal toy.  Plush bear = stuffed teddy bear; plush monkey = stuffed monkey; Xyn_Air = cheeky monkey.  Something like that.

I say they should have just dumped her on the taxiiway and see if croc can protect her from what's coming ahead. I can't stand idiots. Unfortunately...they're EVERYWHERE. ::)
