Sorry, a forum like this, flightinfo (back in the day), book of face, gram of insta, etc is not the same as real life"
Just what you said. I don't confuse those either.
And hey, for complete bags of feminine hygiene products, you have the Piedmont douche who made the video second guessing the United crew re. their engine failure. That's my threshold for that. Or the retard who posted a selfie after crash landing a 757 happily smiling next to the MLG. Few pics in uniform don't hit that threshold for me.
Again, I judge people based on their character in person, not what pictures they post on Facegram.

1) See a person on social media that's a total tool
2) Meet them F2F, yet all you've seen to that point is they are a tool.....

The prejudice here is strong, and I get it. But perhaps give the guy a chance if you ever see him. He is not a "Garrett". Polar opposite to that.

Just like you are an ass here, doesn't mean you'd be an ass on the line.

As for what I’m like on the line, who gives a ****? You’ll never meet me. Or, perhaps, you already have. I’ll refrain from insulting you on this anonymous forum.
