I love traveling, and I love people watching in airports, but I am not a fan of actually flying. Not one bit.

  • Take-offs.
  • Landings.
  • Airplanes simply were not designed for tall people... so uncomfortable
  • ... because of the above, I am incapable of sleeping on planes
  • Screaming babies. Oh my god. Seriously people, they make sedatives for a reason.
  • Coughing, sniffling, itching people.
  • Strangers who really do not get the hint that are you not interested in talking to them about meaningless crap for the entirety of your flight.
  • Stupid peanuts.
  • That damned curtain they insist on closing to separate first class and coach.
  • I'm always cold on planes, no matter what...

Mostly because they are terrible, but also because they're damn obnoxious.

  • Kirstie Alley .. could any person be more whiny and annoying?
  • David Spade. Not Funny.
  • Joan Rivers. Ouch.
  • Nicole Richie (some people don't deserve to be famous)
  • Tim Allen: Home Improvement was possibly the worst TV show ever.
  • Bjork , for many reasons.
  • Tyra Banks. She defines the term superfreak, and not in a good way.
  • Kathy Griffin ... makes me want to scream.
  • Carrot Top. Do I even need to say anything here?!
  • Tom Green ... his poor parents.
  • the guy from 'Jackass' - hell, all of them.
  • Keanu Reeves (duhhh...)
