Why do teenage girls carry full-size pillows through the airport?
ever seen one of those girls?
carrying a full-size pillow, complete with a dirty pillowcase, through the airport, as if they were walking from the bedroom to the living room of their house.

Because they're stupid? I don't know. It seems like everytime there is a group of them at least half are carrying pillows. Is a pillow something that comes in handy often enough to worry about dragging it around? The last thing I want is something that touches my face to have touched anything in the airport.

Selfish about overhead bins? I wouldn't call it that...someone carry gifts, an extra jacket, two carry ons, a bag that they just couldn't check...all qualify as selfish by your definition...in fact...the overhead bins might as well all stay empty =)

These sorts of teenage girls are probably on their way to Paris or London or Amsterdam... Their parents are rich enough buy them international holidays but not rich enough to buy them business class. These girls then go to the airport upset about having to fly economy so they bring their pillows as a statement of how uncomfortable they will be on the flight and a sign to their parents that they are not happy to be in the back of the plane.
