Old and married and sick to shit of it all
this is a conversation i overheard on a plane a couple months ago. the couple was sitting behind me. i wrote down everything i could hear/make out over the course of the flight from atlanta to rochester, ny. i'm just finding it.
Woman: very large woman, the walk up the aisle to the restroom is a daunting one.
Man: Pitiable character. Overweight, but not as big. sick to shit. of the whole thing, it seems.
Flight Attendant: Whatever stereotype you have in mind is correct.
W: "That's a pretty cat isn't it?"
W: "I just love cats and dogs."
M:
W: Everybody's wearing flip flops. It seems like that would hurt.
M:
W: Did you hear me? I said I'm uncomfortable.
M: (a mumble)
W: I read on the internet that after 30 days I'm supposed to switch to Head and Shoulders. One's got selenium and the other's got zinc. or something. (my note: !?)
W: What kind of diet drinks do you have?
M: Do you have Diet Sprite? Thank you.
W: That looks interesting. I'd like to try acupuncture.
W: There's a hole in the back of your shirt. ...There's a HOLE IN THE BACK OF YOUR SHIRT!
W: Ma'am, EXCUSE ME. Could you heat a dinner for me? .... (something something)........ My doctor ...... it's not frozen..... needs heating.....
FA: We don't have a microwave.
W: They don't have a microwave... (very skeptical)
M: Can you eat it cold?
W: I guess I'll have to!
M Can i go to the bathroom?
W: We'll be there soon. Just wait.
M: Can you switch places with me, then?
W: No.
M: (chuckles) Wh--
W: We'll be down soon.
(a lot of struggling and sighing and grunting by W, as she begrudgingly lets man out to pee)
(my note: awwwww, poor man has boobs twice the size of mine, and i'm 5 months pregnant - at this point of summer)
W: I thought I had a chocolate one! You want the rest of your nuts?
M: No.
