Same would apply if they were FAs in those seats.
Very disrespectful indeed. Some people don’t have a clue at times.

Using today’s millennial standards, I find this statement racist. I choose to be offended. But I’m not really sure, so y’all need to wait a bit while I get these crayons out and work on this picture.

Well, I think we found a new TOTD, eh?

Also, there's absolutely NOTHING wrong with "old, white guys!" .

The difference:

An old bull and a young bull were standing on a hilltop overlooking their herd. The youngster, pawing and snorting, said "Whoa, lookit all them cows! Let's run down there real fast and get us one of them!"

The old bull looked over at him and said "Go ahead, run down there real fast and get you one. I'll walk down there nice and slow and get the rest of them."

It's funny how young people mistake their ignorance for wisdom. Youth is wasted on the young.

From the generation that brought you the 2008 financial crisis, fetishization of the military industrial complex, and reinvented the term fiscal irresponsibility, comes this hot take:

Millennials are bad and science is fake


I guess if you can't argue with them, attack them for when they were born

Millenials. . . I was just at a coffee shop doing some AQP homework when a millenial loudly blurted out, "All right, who's the toe tapper?" Evidently his ocd and latch key upbringing and subsequent lack of manners prevents him from silencing his pie hole and understanding and accepting that in public places people can tap their toes. While not aviation related he merits tool of the day consideration.
