Airport griping
I am seriously out of practice with public transportaion... I'd forgotten just *how* irritating strangers can be.
While waiting at the gate, there's a grown-ass man playing a stupid cellphone game with the sound ON. Every time he gets a point, it plays a little five note tune. - Can you not?!
I tried to find a quiet place to eat earlier, and inadvertently ended up listening to the shoutiest monologue about how hard some guy felt he worked. Not even the guy he was speaking loudly at looked like he wanted to be there.
After Shouty McShouterson left, the next table over got occupied by three elderly ladies who thankfully spoke quietly in a language I didn't understand. And then they finished eating. And the teeth sucking began. Oh god. So much sucking of teeth. Why do they not have toothpicks with them?
- Oh, good. I got up and found another seat to get away from gamer guy. For some reason he decided he needed a different seat, too, and is now sitting across from me watching the same video/vine over and over and over and over. Thanks, man. Ten bucks says he'll be sitting next to me on the plane. :p
16 hours to go. Hurricane Matthew, please don't screw this up for me.
