On a flight home today there was an exceptionally nice and helpful Hawaiian flight attendant making sure that the aisles of the plane remained clear so that boarding didn’t come to a complete stop. All this while two young men of some sort of dark ethnicity (maybe 19-23 years of age) were making an exaggerated effort of standing in the aisle playing elbow jockey for overhead space and unpacking/repacking their bags for every reason known to man – snacks, get the iPad out, put the iPad up, get the phone out, put the phone up, put away flight intinerary, take it back out etc…

The extremely nice and courteous flight attendant made mention that they were, in fact, preventing other passengers from boarding the aircraft because of their desire to stand in the aisles for seemingly no reason and asked them to take their seats while boarding continued.

At this request the two young men sat down and began mocking the flight attendant by calling after him a slew of irrational insults including “Faggot!”

As soon as the flight attendant heard them he turned around obviously pissed off and said “What did you call me?!?!”

Without hesitation one of the young men (rather loudly) enunciated the word “FAGGOT” again, upon which the Hawaiian flight attendant said “Oh, okay – I thought you called me a nigger.” and walked off…

Payday.
