A 50- something year old white woman arrived at her seat on a crowded flight and immediately didn't want the seat. The seat was next to a black man. Disgusted, the woman immediately summoned the flight attendant and demanded a new seat. The woman said "I cannot sit here next to this black man." The fight attendant said "Let me see if I can find another seat." After checking, the flight attendant returned and stated "Ma'am, there are no more seats in economy, but I will check with the captain and see if there is something in first class." About 10 minutes went by and the flight attendant returned and stated "The captain has confirmed that there are no more seats in economy, but there is one in first class. It is our company policy to never move a person from economy to first class, but being that it would be some sort of scandal to force a person to sit next to an UNPLEASANT person, the captain agreed to make the switch to first class." Before the woman could say anything, the attendant gestured to the black man and said, "Therefore sir, if you would so kindly retrieve your personal items, we would like to move you to the comfort of first class as the captain doesn't want you to sit next to an unpleasant person." Passengers in the seats nearby began to applause while some gave a standing ovation.

"A pair of sunglasses then descended from an overhead compartment onto the head of the flight attendant, who remarked to the woman, 'Deal with it.'"

the captain is in charge of all seating arrangements and can approve seating upgrades on the fly, yes, that much HAS to be true, because he is a male authority figure, i mean, right?

Wait, is that true, or could the airline get sued for that, and why don't they?
Anyway, the white lady has an attitude. Do those passengers have any sense? The flight should be grounded immediately! No one's accusing her of being a terrorist, but someone causing conflict on an airplane should be booted or the plane should be grounded.
Is this story real?
Speaking of Facebook, I can't take all of the religious propaganda on it. I mean, I don't like opening it every day and seeing your sappy anti-abortion artwork. They're all getting blocked.

Today and every day, I find solace in the fact that I am insignificant. 1 of 7 billion, in 1 solar system of billions, in 1 galaxy of billions, in an entirely endless universe of amazing and unimaginable possibilities. I could ruin my life and do nothing, but in the scale of things, nothing really matters. If I mess up, it makes no difference. And in a backwards way, I love it. It means I have nothing to lose. This realization has helped me find the courage to make difficult decisions and take calculated risks. It’s one of the primary reasons my web start-up is going to make over six figures this year.

It means everything you lose has total significance to you, but little to the world if you succeed, imo
