Ever had a bad day?
The kind that makes you want to lose your mind completely, strip naked, lace up your Nike’s, and joyously skip to your local grocery store to purchase Honey Bunches of Oat.
I’ve had this experience many times and while I’ve never gone through with it, I respect any man who has.
Meet Mr. Steven Slater, flight attendant for Jet Blue who clearly had a bad day, and unlike myself, who can be a sissy at times, he manned up and showed us all how to get jiggy with it when the world throws a curve ball at ya.
We salute you sir. The haters can rot in hell.
While having an ordinary day as a flight attendant, a woman decided to get out of her seat early to get her luggage from an overhead compartment.
Mr. Slater, concerned for her safety, confronted her on this.
As she was getting her stuff, she maliciously struck him in his head with her bag and quite reasonably, he demanded an apology.
Instead of getting an apology, the woman told him to go f*** yourself and called him a mo-fo.
Lady, whoever you are, if you’re reading this, we’d like an interview with you.
What follows is a chain of events that makes Mr. Slater the most epic flight attendant ever to grace this ball of spinning ice you know as earth.
He promptly got on the loud speaker and cursed out not just the woman who hit him, but every passenger on the flight.
When he was done with that, he grabbed a few beers from the galley and then pulled the emergency chute and slid down the plane’s fun slide like a champ.
Nothing like taking a couple brews for the road after cussing out a plane full of passengers on the p.a. system.
Slater was later arrested at his home while apparently in the midst of sexual relations.
What can we learn from all this, children?
Simple:
1. When you’ve completely ruined your reputation, make sure you steal a few brewskies before taking your escape route.
2. Flight attendants don’t kill people when they go postal; they rock it harder than Jean-Claude Van Damme on steroids.
Your host and companion,
