Not really. A lot of times I actually think as I walk off another United flight after a long day "at least they didn't beat the tar out of me". Particularly when the flight attendants seem surly.

Good. So this guy actually improved the smell of a typical united flight.

I propose banning the delayed/cancelled flights thread and any disparaging comments about UA
Lately on FT we have seen a couple get engaged on a flight (ho hum), a guy taking shirt off and acting dopey (really?), and now this story is somehow described as a "must read".
I'm gonna wait until the print version of this forum comes out in the supermarket aisle next to the
Enquirer.

Please.....you must have some strange aftershaves if you think feces is an improved smell over just about anything.
