People are so entitled today. When my grandpappy used to fly, he’d fly cross-country in a vomit covered seat both ways, and he loved it

Back when I was a young lad, if you wanted a vomit-covered seat, you had to do it yourself. Young-uns got it way too easy these days, with their new-fangled pre-vomited biohazards. Why, if you wanted hepatitis A or norovirus, you'd have ta get it yerself, dagnammit!

It seems like nobody wants to vomit these days.

Why back in my day I would've asked for that seat, we used to have to tie rope to our trousers to stay in one spot

The plane was not in the air. They pulled them off the plane at the gate.

Pics or didn't happen.

I just can not imagine anyone forcing someone to sit in vomit.
