This is fantastic! It’s such a familiar story this day and age, but feels even more poignant described on a plane. I don’t want to be plugged in to the blue-light brainwasher! Talk to me neighbor!!!

All you need is an open book on the lap to start a good conversation.

As a person who always sits in the middle seat because her partner is very tall and needs the extra legroom, I am very claustrophobic on the aircraft when the passengers do not lift the window shade. I can imagine as a flight attendant how closed in it must feel leg after leg!

Makes sense! And isn’t the point of the window seat to look out the window?

I enjoyed this interesting take on the habits of traveler's or just average humans these days. We are so disconnected to the life around us so much of the time. I think I'll get off my laptop now and go for a walk...

Haha I think being ‘weird’ now just translates to not going with the status quo, and the status quo is living like a zombie. And yah, I’m always confused how people stay in their hotel rooms for that long without itching to get out. Thanks for reading!
