"Don't You Know Who.i.am..!?"

will.i.am, real name William Adams, was wearing noise-cancelling headphones as he mixed music on his computer as the plane was coming in to land.
And didn't hear the announcement to put laptops away. And was told to do so mt a stewardess. And then threw a strop...
'I've never seen this, it was like a police state,' he told the Sunday Telegraph. 'I am the coolest traveller, I don't ask for much. I try to stay out of their way. I come on the plane to go to sleep or I go to work.'
'She asked me to put my laptop away and I put it away and I told her to relax because the whole flight she was stressed.'
It's not really surprising, is it..?

There you are, locked in a metal tube high in the sky, playing nanny and nursemaid to people who the moment they board behave like toddlers, trying to do the best job you can. And when one of them disobeys and you call them on it, they immediately wave the Race Card™ and get their followers to dogpile on you on social media.

They should issue them tasers...

  2. I doubt he would have tried this with an EL Al Stewardess. Some of those ladies, although often beautiful, look as if they'd be quite competent at kicking the crap out of any recalcitrant traveler or troublemaker and not even smudging their makeup whilst doing so. I've never felt so safe when flying than when flying with El Al.

  3. The best response to "Don't you know who I am?" is:-

    "I'm sorry, I don't: but if you sit quietly, I'll try to find your nurse who can tell you and put your mind at rest".

  5. It's the sheer, graceless arrogance of this grubby little parvenu.

    Just put the fucking laptop away when told, like any normal person would have.

    Jumped up little prick!

    Have to confess I wouldn't know this arse from Adam.

  6. I haven't got a scooby who is is. I'd be hard pressed to say what he is.

  7. Perhaps he should change his stage name to "Twat.I.am"?

    Heh! At least the other passengers would have had some in-flight entertainment...

    "It's the sheer, graceless arrogance of this grubby little parvenu."

    Must watch 'X-Men Origins' again, and see him get outsmarted by Liev Schrieber's Sabretooth...

    "Perhaps he should change his stage name to "Twat.I.am"?"

    ROFL!
