4. Audio-insensitive (talking/music) (51%)
Imagine if MODs can be this insensitive on NL, come to think of it when they wear Beats by Dre in a flight (if they get the opporturnity for real or for dream). Most do sing along to music laying in their headphones. Hahahaha Don't pray to have them sit by you.

5. Boozer (50%)
Ogogoro abi na beer, abi na hangover things?

I once paid for an 11hour flight from Hawaii to philippines asia.. I was seated next to a man so fat, that his arm alone needed an enitre seat or at least half a seat.. Unfortunately, it was my seat i had paid in full -that his arm occupied while i shrunk my slim self even smaller so he could have room to grow fatter... He had serious health issues and his breathing was seriously troubled and he carried an oxygen tank... Eventually he ran out of oxygen and needed the stewardess to help him fumble a replacement... The confusion lasted a long time and it all happened over my seat and head and body.. It was not easy for me, but it was harder on him being so out of shape or in terrible excess of shape and seriously unhealthy, i am just amazed he wasn't slumped dead by the time of touch down in Manila... I just knew all the trouble would make me stronger and work my body into keeping slim and healthy...
I was polite and considerate and accomodationg of him the whole way, even though i know he didnt end up like that by being considerate and moderate in his life.... So i know i have put in brotherly consideration for my fellow man in this life, no matter how much of an inconveinience he was..
But, Chai! 11hours! Thats why i never forget to this day...

That's really an unforgettable experience. You really carried yourself the gentleman way. A flight or bus is a meeting point of some sort. You will be amazed at other peoples stories. I wish the could keep it coming.
