Kids these days (Yes, I said that unironically) can't be assed to deal with any amount of discomfort. They've had a childhood of screens put in front of them so they don't have to deal with boredom and other shit that just ruins a person's ability to operate in society.

Grow the fuck up and deal with it.

EDIT: So apparently people are reading this like I'm talking about the crying babies. I'm talking about the ridiculous, pseudo-child-free adults who can't believe a baby might have trouble while flying and god forbid they should hear it cry.

FYI the younger ones are screaming because of pain from the inner ear air pressure changes that they don't know how to prevent.

JFC are people really understanding my take as blaming the fucking babies? The whole "kids these days" was a tongue-in-cheek reference to the adults in the plane complaining about the babies.

nah, lad, people are most likely understanding exactly what ya meant and they're downvoting because of that. also the 'pseudo-childfree' mention might also be bothersome to some, what with it suggesting said lifestyle might be just a phase and thus claiming to have the absolute truth and such things. pretty sure parents would downvote a childfree person for suggesting a pseudo-parent notion.

but I'm 2 ales and a barleywine in already, so YMMV

this thread is entertaining though, for what it's worth. I just want to see the fuckcarspeople get involved here as well, 'cause it's getting kind of repetitive

why isn't there a fuckplanes community, I wonder? I mean they still use leaded fuel and are probably making us all stupider and more violent and stuff
