A tale of three airport fats.: I was travelling last week, and got to witness some truly awful hams. Why is it that when someone acts like an asshole in public, they're nearly always obese? I wonder. Obnoxious* fat: She walked up to my gate, huffing and puffing, asking repeatedly what flight this was (there are signs everywhere). Generally being super loud and attention-seeking. Shortly after, we had to switch gates. It took a human about 5 minutes to walk there, but it took her at least double. When she finally got there, she THREW herself onto the floor, wheezing like she just ran a marathon. Kicked off her shoes, ranting loudly about how she wore the "wrong bra and shoes for running" (as though she can run). She continued to lay on the floor, on her phone, talking loudly to no one and blocking the line of people getting ready to board. When she finally got up, the older woman next to me leaned towards her husband and whispered, "Did her boob just fall out?!" Stupid fat: A woman is causing a scene at her gate. Screaming at airline employees, screaming into her cell phone, real insane shit. Apparently, she was trying to board a Spirit Airline flight (the really cheap, no-frills airline that lets you carry on one small tote/purse and charges you for anything else). She had bought a couple large bags worth of stuff at the airport, and they wouldn't let her board without checking them. She refused, even though there are signs stating their policy and I'm sure she had to agree to it when she bought the ticket.  So she storms off to ruin somebody's day, and I had to laugh. She just wasted her cross-country ticket, and was likely going to have to pay out the ass to buy another one. All because she couldn't read or follow the rules.  Gross fat: Obese woman is sitting a few rows ahead of me with her 2-3 year old daughter. After the plane landed and I was walking past, I noticed a dirty diaper on the floor in front of her seat. At some point during the flight, she had changed her kids diaper AT HER SEAT and just thrown it on the floor. Because, fuck the people who have to clean those planes, right? *I know these title are redundant. They are all obnoxious, stupid, and gross.
