The Rules

Posts must be:

Links to news stories from...
...credible sources, with...
...their original headlines, that...
...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

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
