I can confirm the last statement (though on the 2 routes I have flown it on, I have wanted to maximise sleep anyhow, for timing reasons.)

SFO, great pics!
Do you know what's this type of green tea is called?
P.S: What kind of camera/lens are you using to still get such clear shots of these during turbulence

LOL. Just had to post this follow-up about this moron...
T.J. Miller arrested in suspicion of battery on a driver...
You can't make up this stuff.

And then there was this guy, who reminded me of Charles Manson. High as a kite, no doubt off to Denver to get even higher. Yikes. Was yapping on the phone the entire time and after the door was closed. FA had to tell him three times to turn off the phone. Also, didn't like that we rolled our eyes at him and put on our Bose.
But the best part was yet to come. At the gate in Denver, he tried to engage us in conversation. We both ignored the guy and stayed in our seats, Bose on, until everyone was off the plane. With gate check bags, no need to get off any sooner. FA apologized for the idiot as did the Captain who told FA that she should have let him know at LAX and he would have tossed him. Manson wasn't in the jet bridge waiting for his bags but he wasn't done with us. He wound up stalking us as he came out of the shadows and followed us down one of the moving walkways. I caught a glimpse peripherally and at the end of the walkway, turned right to an active United gate and asked the GA to call security because the guy was stalking us. That scared the crap of Manson and he ran away... never to be seen again. Wow, that was weird.
