A seating chart for an "8 HOUR FLIGHT" with the text "PICK YOUR SEAT" at the top. The chart is composed of 10 numbered seats, each occupied by a different famous Republican politician or public figure, or the devil. Each number represents a seat, and each seat is either adjacent to or between one or two different individuals.

Seat #9, no contest. You're going to get so many inflight hand jobs.

The literal devil is tempting for sure, but I don't want to be within smell range of Trump. The real answer is the emergency exit row so you can depressurize the cabin

[–] netvor@lemmy.world 12 points 3 months ago

Easily 3, looks like The Number Devil to me.

I was gonna pick 7 but holy shit I can sit next to SATAN? HELL YEAH #3 ALL THE WAY Maybe I can talk him into taking this whole plane straight to hell. I'll end up going with it but my eternal suffering is worth sparing the earth the misery of these absolute scum. I might feel bad about Hulk Hogan though. Yeah he's deranged and chose the wrong side, but I feel more like he's lost and confused rather than as overtly malignant as the rest of these dipshits.

edit: ok yeah if the hulkster burns too that's actually good for the world.

#3 would at the very least have good stories

[–] Thrashy@lemmy.world 11 points 3 months ago (2 children)

10

Lindsey Graham is a piece of shit, but he's an entertaining piece of shit. Not to mention, he's like the yappy little Chihuahua that barks bloody murder at whoever the bigger dog he's hiding behind doesn't like -- I'm pretty sure I could get him on side to shit-talk Thomas to his face for at least the last half of the flight.

Can I take the pilot seat and fly us all into the next mountain?

[–] callouscomic@lemm.ee 11 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) (4 children)

Seat 9. She may be nuts, but she's clearly horny for attention too, so ehh, I'll hit that. The other one will probably grumble and ignore us.

I spent a significant portion of a train trip sick in the bathroom once and I think I'd just repeat that....

EDIT: You think I could manage to get a handy if I pick 9?

Realizing there are no good options (Satan aside, but look who you're sitting behind), I would end up in seat 10.

Vance will be preoccupied with seat 5. I expect Graham will fall asleep.

The back of the plane is usually a bit louder, so I'd just throw on my headphones and maybe occasionally kick the seatback.

5, but I'm spending the whole flight suggesting we seduce the seats into a foursome.

[–] Heikki@lemm.ee 8 points 3 months ago

Things to say: Seat 1: You failed your teachers. Everyone strives to be smarter, yet you keep running from it

Seat 2: You paid 130k to sleep with some once once? Doesn't sound like a great deal to me.

Seat 3: Just end this entire plane and give "god" the credit.

Seat 4: You know you're a piece of shit.

Seat 5: So.... how fuckable are these cushions to you?

Seat 6: You know you both are pieces of shit right!

Seat 7: How were your nights in China/Chyna

Seat 8: I asked if the lady next to the alleged molester is actually Candace Owen's and not someone who looks like her and is being trafficked

Seat 9: pull out bag of popcorn

Seat 10: Why are you the way you are? Just why?

[–] mctoasterson@reddthat.com 8 points 3 months ago

I'm taking 4. Sitting next to Alex Jones and showing him Wendigoon videos to see which ones he takes literally.

[–] SkyezOpen@lemmy.world 7 points 3 months ago

That's tough. I think I'll have to pick 4 just to stir tension between Alex Jones and Satan.

My second pick would be 8. I'd just repeatedly kick the back of McConnell's seat while asking gaetz if he sex traffics minors because adult women find him creepy. Oh also I'd eat a bunch of awful fast food, booze, and fiber so I'm farting up a death storm and hopefully gassing large marge. Talking to her is pointless. She can smell my fury instead.

[–] InternetUser2012 7 points 3 months ago

9, I'd tell space lasers nutjob to stfu and who wouldn't mind a nice handy, then I'd walk up to seat 2 and Mike Tyson the fool in the window seat.

[–] TriflingToad@lemmy.world 7 points 3 months ago

3, whole way I'm chanting "gay frogs! gay frogs! gay frogs!"

[–] HappycamperNZ@lemmy.world 7 points 3 months ago

9, and I'm eating alot of cabbage and garlic first.

[–] rowinxavier@lemmy.world 7 points 3 months ago

Seat 8

Eat a kilo of cashews a few hours before boarding, make them really taste the horror, ideal location for diffusion. Maybe add some sorbitol gummy bears and refuse to leave my seat. I reckon I can make at least half vomit.

[–] MystikIncarnate@lemmy.ca 7 points 3 months ago

Ehhh. I'll catch the next flight, and hope like hell this one crashes.

I'd go down with the ship for the good of mankind, but I have things I want to do.

[–] Smokeless7048@lemmy.world 7 points 3 months ago

Either 2 or 4. Buy a couple drinks, set my phone to record, and just agree with everything they say... See how far you can get them to go

[–] KickMeElmo@sopuli.xyz 7 points 3 months ago (2 children)

Strangely, I have to say 5, because he seems like the only one there (including Satan) who'd stfu and leave me alone.

[–] GooberEar@lemmy.wtf 9 points 3 months ago (1 children)

So how long you been flying? Okay. Good.

Seat #7

I could probably find some kind of entertainment-value by talking to Hulk Hogan about "wrestling" or his career. The turtle will probably just sleep, or remain frozen in a transient-stroke-like state. Seems like the easiest.

In reality, it wouldn't really matter which seat I chose. I always go right tf to sleep on planes; because no, I don't want to talk with you, stranger

Though... maybe not next to Vance. I don't want him getting any weird ideas about my seat, if I were to get up to use the bathroom

[–] bstix@feddit.dk 7 points 3 months ago

With these options, the only way I could enjoy the flight is by playing the Uno reverse card: I'm going to make each and every one of them regret flying in the same plane as me.

I thought the same at first but then you are sitting behind the orange gasbag who'll recline into your lap and fart the entire flight.

Seat 7 and I'll do an impression of him the entire flight.

[–] Eldritch@lemmy.world 11 points 3 months ago

Better yet. Say you're going to do an impression of him over and over. Then just do Randy Savage. Oooooooooih yeaaaaaaah!

[–] MudMan@fedia.io 6 points 3 months ago

This is absolutely a "I'm not stuck here with you, you're stuck here with ME" situation.
