<p>Or killed</p>
<p>Lack of leg room and seats not reclining far enough.</p>
<p>Oh yeah. Being 5'11" on a plane sucks. I'd hate to be taller :(</p>
<p>"Has anyone mentioned lost, stolen, delayed, or damaged luggage?"</p>
<p>On a bus, but never on a plane. </p>
<p>Greyhound SUCKS. NEVER USE THEM (not that any of you rich pansies ever would anyway hehehe)</p>
<p>On just ONE bus trip:
~Bomb Threat; we ended up 6 hours late because of it. We were in Albuquerque and were told to go inside the station and we had no idea what was going on. No one could take a cigarette break, most of the folks were broke and couldn't afford food or drinks, and we all ended up passing out on the hard tile floor until about 4am when they let us go--only to find out that probably 30% of us had valuables stolen from our luggage during the searches.
~Bus Driver who cussed us all out and got in a few of our faces, and then got knocked out by one guy (and we all clapped and hollered haha)
~Bus Driver who wouldn't let anyone use the bathroom (we had a 6 hour ride)
~Bus Driver who wouldn't let us off of the bus for 3 hours or so whenever he stopped
~Arrests made of people who were on the bus at two different stops
~4 people were left behind overall
~and when I finally go to Tennesee (I was seeing my dad's family for the first time in 10 years--family reunion in the Smokies) I had no effing luggage the whole 4 days I was there! So I had nothing to wear but 2 pairs of gym shorts and 2 tee shirts the entire time I was there! And we went out to eat and stuff!</p>
<p>grhhh....</p>
<p>I love flying :D</p>

Greyhound SUCKS.
[/Quote]
</p>
<p>YES! They suck so much. I was riding one yesterday for the first time. </p>
<p>The stupid bus was so packed that I couldn't even find a seat at first. (Well, there were few empty seats next to some weird looking people.) So I kind of stole this kid's seat at the end... </p>
<p>I had to ride the bus for about 3 hours and this lady sitting in front of me was eating fried chicken and potato chips with cheddar sauce the WHOLE time. It's really annoying when you have to listen to someone chewing on chips for 3 hours. </p>
<p>And the Greyhound bathroom is a nightmare.</p>
<p>lmao. I love Greyhound. The people on there are fun to watch. From the points I normally take buses, I'm normally with the compulsive gamblers so I must say, the company makes the bus.</p>
<p>Terrorist.</p>
<p>I just want to get to my destination, but nooo, they just have to prove a point.</p>
<p>^^ lol yeah the people are pretty interesting, but they can sometimes be annoying as hell....</p>

So I'm guessing we all have come to a group concencess (crap I can't spell) that babies should be BANNED from
airplanes/airports.

</p>
<p>Nah, they can still fly. We'll just stick 'em in a cage and throw 'em in the cargo section like the dogs are. I don't think we'll be able to hear, smell, or feel (yes, I had a baby on a recent flight that thought my sleeve was a plaything to be slobbered on...the parents thought it was cute =/) them from down there. On the other hand, quiet/cute babies are fun on planes. Perhaps the baby will have to be screened first for it's annoyance factor to determine where it should be placed on the plane.</p>
<p>heres a good horror story
i was on a plane to korea (yay!) and some REALLY obese guy was sitting next to me
i was 13 at the time and sitting away from my family becuase i wanted to be independent
i also wanted a window seat.
so im sitting by the window, minding my own business and he sits next to me
and i was like "ok...?"
and it wasnt so bad.
until we took off.
during takeoff he threw up in the vomit bag and I COULD SMELL IT
and he farted everal times while sleeping
as soon as i got off the plane, i headed towards the bathroom, striped down and sprayed myself all over with deodorant
guh. disgusting.</p>
<p>Wowwwwwwwww that sucks ^</p>
<p>HAHAHAHA. oh that must have been a brilliant experience for your first step back in korea, XD</p>
<p>i hate it when people think i don't know english on the damn plane.
especially on flights to SF or Japan or somewhere lots of korean tourists might go.
so they attempt to speak my language when, to be real honest, they plain SUCK at it, and they persist on learning about my beautiful culture, eloquent language, and traditional customs (thankfully this specific scenario is actually more on the actual tourist attractions themselves)</p>
<p>i also hate it when people ask me if i'm chinese (then again, this doesn't apply to just planes) it's like me going up to someone who has light skin and brown hair "are you jewish?" it's just so... annoying. like y'all KNOW it'll **** us off regardless if we are or not. XD</p>
<p>I hate riding the bus, although I've never had as bad a trip as the former post. </p>
<p>It just creeps me out. I use to ride the bus to my aunt and uncles about an hour away. Uhg. I will not ride the bus again.</p>
<p>buses smell like urine and drugs
ugh.
and westcoast_ i kno EXACTLY how u feel
i get the "are u japanese?! -horrible japanese ensues-" all the time
but i guess theres a good side...
hot japanse tourist girls try to talk to me...
even if my japanese is basic.</p>
<p>hehe i wouldn't mind being called japanese
i used to be called japanese, and i wasn't really mad if i heard it, but i think chinese just seems more generic and just some assumption anyone would make. while japanese people are usually classified for their clothes lol</p>
<p>ooo. i get hot chinese guys talking to me though :P well, since i don't really talk to them long sometimes i don't find out if they're chinese or not (asking for last names is a strange thing to do)</p>
<p>when your friends/family of whom you are traveling with get bumped up to first class while you are stuck back in coach with all the screeming babies, snoring old people, stuffy air, and uncomfortable seats for 6 hours</p>
<p>lol westcoast_
i guess i do dress....more on the flamboyant side.
yeah.
my hair used to be 2 feet long
and then i cut my hair myself at my friends house with a kitchen knife.
long story
AND I CAME UP WITH SOMETHING ELSE.
i hate it when ur on an airplane and someone falls asleep in the bathroom
it happened once on a flight to cali.
jesus, how do u fall asleep in a lavatory?!</p>
<p>by having 8 shots of tequila</p>
<p>Ugh. This lady on my flight decided that she would breastfeed her baby. She didn't try to cover herself or anything. Then she had 3 other kids. Two of them decided that they would sit in the seat in front of me and stare over the back or stick their arm thru the hole. Then the 3 year old screamed the whole time. The father was sitting in front of me part of the time (it was like musical chairs...) and he had his seat fully reclined, but decided to keep trying to force it to go back father. Finally I started putting my knees in his back and he quit doing it. But seriously, how hard is it to control your kids?</p>
<p>I was sitting behind 2 ladies and their sons on my way back to the West Coast. For almost 6 hours, they enthusiastically discussed their kids' accomplishments, what schools they got into, and what schools they were applying to. It was like College Confidential condensed into a 6 hours tape. They covered literally all of the top 25 schools + top LACs.<br>
If you think obese and people who conveniently forget to shower before going to the airport were bad, meet CC parents in real life ... in surround sound. I, for once, contemplated the possibility of jumping out the emergency exit mid flight. I never in my life wanted a fake id so I can order a drink from a very nosy stewardess who occasionally chimed in, gave tidbits about the college towns she's been to, and unsocilited general advices for these young men.<br>
I got irrationally angry several times and wanted to scream, "shut up, you #(#&$e$." The reason I didn't go ballistic on them was because I saw their sons on my college tour and they were rather easy on the eyes. =)</p>
