Should I be worried that Tux is flightless?

“In flight entertainment?! What is this world coming to?!”

You’re one of those Amish people with a hidden smartphone, aren’t you?

I'm one of those people who won't be swiping a credit card for three squares of toilet paper, or paying for a pass to use a water fountain, etc. If you think that makes me some kind of Luddite then so be it, but don't ask what I think of you.

I mean yeah, but who mentioned any of that stuff? What’s dystopian about having entertainment for a potentially multi hour flight? I fail to see the utopian quality in sitting straight-backed and staring at the back of the seat in front of you for a six hour cross-country flight.

And I really don’t give two shits what you think of me since you’re apparently a bit of a wacko.

Wow, you're a dick. The flight was paid for already, watching the little TV shouldn't be an add on.

How do you know it is?

It’s not an add on, the fuck are you on about?! They’re included!

That must be why it needs a credit card reader, because it doesn't need to read credit cards. Silly me.

You can order additional PPV content, there’s still free stuff. Paying is optional.
