    And this is why I’ll continue to fly Southwest. Which gives me cheap tickets, and doesnt try to fuck me in the ass on luggage.

        man, if spending 100 bucks to fly somewhere with 2 full checked bags, and a carry on, is being fucked…

        Then lube my ass up, cause I’ll take that anyday compared to the 200-600 the flight costs on anyone else.

      Will they try to fuck you in the ass when you’re /off/ luggage? Is it like “the floor is lava” game? :)
