#20 “We don’t make you stow your laptop because we’re worried about electronic interference. It’s about having a projectile on your lap. I don’t know about you, but I don’t want to get hit in the head by a MacBook going 200 miles per hour.” -Patrick Smith

Amen!
I just flew back from AZ from a business trip and, I kid you not, the idiot in front of me let her son (probably age 3 or 4) STAND in front of his sister (maybe 7 or 8) because they both wanted to look out the window
during landing.
Idiot husband, sitting on the other side of the plane with the rest of the kids said "hold his arm honey, he'll be fine."
Really?

Morons shouldn't have children.
I kept praying we had a smooth landing, because I really didn't want to see a couple young children die or get seriously injured right in front of me.
Note to idiots: If the flight attendants are sitting down and strapped in, there's a really good reason. Sit your ass down (and make sure your kids are too)!
