10 Things I Hate About You: Delta Airlines

I flew home this weekend for my uncle's funeral and realized how much I hate Delta. Not ONCE have I flown on this airline and enjoyed it -- okay, ONCE...but that was in first class (translation: free liquor makes everything better).

As with most things, I don't want to spout off at the mouth about something without good reason. So, that being said, I've come up with a list. In no particular order, here are the things I hate about Delta.

1. You will wait. You will be given no information and you will wait. My flight out was delayed 3 hours and we weren't told anything until an hour into it.

2. 12 flights out of one gate is NOT a smart idea.

3. Your staff, not so nice. I thought Delta was supposed to be the best airline to work for. Bigger ain't necessary better in this case. Maybe their mad cuz they can't afford those HOT new uniforms you advertised a while back. I thought you went baknrupt? A few times?

4. Your gate is UGLY. This may be more of an Atlanta-Hartsfield issue than a Delta issue, but it still sucked. The Wendy's was PHENOMENAL, however.

5. You still have small planes? SHEESH!!

6. Your snacks are crap. Remember, quality is better than quantity. Water at the end is a pretty good idea, though. Thanks for that.

7. If I pay f'n $600 for a 2 1/2 hour flight, I expect a damn movie AND satellite radio. I didn't get either.

8. I thought you had the best pilots? Landing SUX!

9. Two words: leg room.

10. Waiting an hour for luggage to make it to baggage claim is UNACCEPTABLE.

There you have it. I HATE Delta and pray I don't have to fly it again. I'm sorry, Airtran, I don't know what I was thinking...

Is That Eyeliner You're Wearing, Charlie Day?

So I was watching It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia a few weeks ago when I noticed that Charlie 's eyes were so prominent. He's a funny little man whose antics never fail to please so I pushed it to the back of my mind. I know people wear eyeliner to bring out the expression in their eyes because the lighting drowns it out, whatever floats your boat. And you never know, he may have REALLY pretty eyes that just look like he's wearing eyeliner. Then I was watching last night and realized there was no DOUBT Charlie was wearing eyeliner and I couldn't shake it. It really took me out of it. Nonethless, the show was AWESOME and I don't care if Charlie's a cross-dressing salad tosser's bitch, I'd watch him any time. Check it out, cuz it's quite possibly the best TV I've seen in a while.

What's So Different

I was talking to my cousin Debbie (the Princess) about dating last night when we ended up arguing about cultural differences. We're both Haitian, but I was raised Black American (that term itself is from the Haitian culture) whereas as she was raised with the culture deeply imbedded. I can honestly say I started "learning" how to be Haitian when I was 17. My friends all knew I was Haitian, but also knew I was basically in a Southern family. It's a long story, but I was kept as far away from anything Haitian as long as my mother could help it. That's just a little background, on to the argument. Now, Debbie and I are like night and day when it comes to men. She's not the sharpest tool in the shed and I cut someone before they get to use me. We're not only like that with men, we're liek that all around. I'm bookish, she's artistic. I'm witty, she gigles a lot. She's got numbers locked, I'd rather write a story. We're just...opposi...
