Clean it up!

At a busy burger joint on a Friday night in Manhattan, finding a table is a sport. So when I saw that some people, tourists, whatever, were leaving, I asked politely if they were. When they said yes, I expected them to take their garbage. But did that happen, no. I was so stunned that I didn't say anything. Below is a picture of what they left, after I put it on a tray. Not cool, people....not cool.

Please move it, a little faster....

On Tuesday night, I flew on an interesting flight. First, the flight attendants in the main cabin were cranky and rude. Then the person next to me had a panic attack and was yelling at her husband, because she had to use the facilities and there was turbulence. But the kicker of it all, when we were getting off the plane nobody would hustle in the front of the plane. Can't people just learn how to travel or just not go at all? Below is a picture of the situation I was in for 20 minutes, at least.

You load sixteen tons, what do you get?

So, travelling by air is fun these days, no? No. It seems to be quite the opposite of fun. Long security lines, ever-changing and inconsistent rules on liquids and implements and shoes and belts, and now increasing carry-on drama. Since airlines started adding fees for any checked baggage, people have started cramming as much as they can into carry-on bags, and whacking passengers and flight attendants on the head as they struggle mightily to jam the oversize bag into the shrinking overhead bin. Sound about right?



Today's NY Times has an article about this shortage of bin space and the new fees for carry-on baggage being implemented by some airlines: http://www.nytimes.com/2010/8/24/business/24road.html?_r=1&WT.mc_id=BU-SM-E-FB-SM-LIN-COC-082410-NYT-NA&WT.mc_ev=click

Taking responsibility for your actions....

It is not always easy to take responsibility, but it's what grown-ups do. (Or at least, what they are suppose to do) Below is a link to a blog that best conveys what I'm speaking of.

Man Falls 25 feet at Disneyland because he was being a jackass

This guy was standing in line and messing around on the bars. Mom always said you would be hurt if you stood on the bars on the line. Maybe my Grandpa said it...whatever...you get the point [via The Orange County Register]

By ALEJANDRA MOLINA, DENISSE SALAZAR and SARAH TULLY THE ORANGE COUNTY REGISTER
The Orange County Register
updated

"ANAHEIM -- - A 20-year-old man was hospitalized after falling about 25 feet from a platform at The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror at Disney's California Adventure Park Wednesday, police said.

The fall was reported at 10:30 p.m. Wednesday and firefighters and police responded to the scene.

"The guest was standing in line with friends on a second-floor platform when he climbed over a barrier to the area below and lost his balance and fell approximately 25 feet, said Disney spokeswoman Suzi Brown in a prepared statement.

Anaheim police Sgt. Rick Martinez said the man made a comment about how it would be funny if someone fell just moments before the fall.

Brown said the man was taken to a hospital, treated and released.

Martinez said officers took a police report because of the nature of the call and where it occurred, but the incident does not require a police investigation.

Martinez said the incident appears to be an accident.

Tower of Terror opened in 2004 at the park, becoming the tallest building in the Disneyland Resort at 183 feet.

The state has received two reports of injuries on the ride in the last year and a half. One guest, who had a history of seizures, reported having a seizure on the ride. A 13-year-old girl reported that her eyes burned from a flash on the ride. State investigators found no safety hazards on the ride in both cases."

Via Gothamist:"Parents Mad Cafe Won't Put Up With Their Annoying Kids"

[image from Gothamist]

Windsor Terrace parents are throwing a tantrum at the Oak & the Iris Café, claiming that they have no right to cancel their weekly sing-a-longs just because their precious kids were breaking property. One miffed mom even threatened to burn the place down, writing, "To set yourself up as kid-friendly and then be appalled by a normal range of kid behavior seems bizarre to me." But owner Aleksandra Kameneva says if what she witnessed was "normal range," things sure have changed since when she was a kid.

Kameneva started the sing-a-longs two years ago, and attracted about 25 kids and their parents every week. But after finding broken chairs, shattered plates and bottled beverages pulled from the fridge, she posted a sign in her window saying the sing-along sessions would be no more. "I'm more surprised by the parents," she said. "There are playgrounds, and there are indoor places where you have to behave differently...Children could not act like this when I was growing up." And it's not like the place is banning children; one recent Yelp review said, "The staff here LOVE babies. One of the waitresses/counter people came over to my infant son and started playing with him. He loved it."

Parents argue their kids were doing nothing wrong. One mom said, "They were not running around or causing a ruckus. I didn't see anybody who truly neglected their kid or let them run wild." But dad Alexander Lagos reminded us that if there's one thing Brooklyn parents love, it's being told their little ones aren't welcome. "Brooklyn parents are really defensive. They don't like to hear any criticism of how they're raising their children." We'll say it: If your kids are breaking furniture at cafes, maybe they're not ready for the "adult world" quite yet.

Car Chases....do they ever end the way the suspect wants?

As I was watching the morning news here in Los Angeles, I couldn't help thinking how dumb people can be. There was not one, but two car chases this morning.
When I went on the internet to the local news web pages, I notice on one that they have a tab just for car chases. First, don't these imbeciles know that they are not going to out run the cops? I mean, you are all over the news, so there is no where for you to go. Besides being against the law and dangerous, how rude are these people that do this? Can you imagine driving to work and having this car speed past you or worse, smash into you at a high speed? Hey reckless criminals, trying to out run the fuzz, unless you are a superhero and have special powers, you are not going to win this one. You just end up looking like an ass.

Jet Blue Passengers from 1052 want their 15 minutes

If you have been living under a rock: on Monday, Steven Slater became a folk hero to many after he made a grand exit when a passenger pushed him too far. Yesterday, four days after the incident, a couple of passengers came forward to say that Steven Slater was rude to them. Really, I think you were jealous that someone was getting all the attention. How can anyone at this point find these people credible? Don't worry, Steven, there is always backlash with these kinds of thing. Click on the link below to get more info.

How I know Steven Slater

[Prom, with Steven, Cindy, and Melissa]

Monday didn't start out to be an out-of-the-ordinary day - I was on my computer, happened to check Facebook, (which, like most of you, I check several times a day) and noticed a link one of my FB friends had put up. As I read the article, I realized that this was about someone I knew. I immediately sent my childhood friend a message with the link saying: "Is this who I think it is, is this your ex?" She replied that indeed it was and the media had already been calling her.
[Homecoming: Cynthia and Steven]

What you first need to know is that I have not seen Steven or his ex-wife, Cindy, (now known as Cynthia Susanne, or Cynthia Niethamer) for many years. There was never a falling out - our lives just went in different directions. Because of MySpace and Facebook Cindy and I reconnected a few years ago, and send messages once in awhile. We've known each other since elementary school and were always close friends. She met Steven in high school and they dated and married.

Steven was one of the nicest people I have ever met, so to say that I was in shock at this story was an understatement. I know that I am a very different person now than I was back then, so I could not tell you about what he is like today. What I have heard from Cindy is that
he is still that same nice, sweet person. And just a side note: I was the maid-of-honor at their wedding. (I can't make this stuff up, folks.)
[Bridal shower with Cindy at Melissa's house]

When the news broke, I told my Hey Rude co-creator, Helene, we should not put anything on the site just yet. Let's be honest, if this had been anyone else, it would have been uploaded immediately. I mean could this story be anymore perfect for Hey Rude?

For the last three days, I have been watching all the news reports, late night and morning shows and could not believe the frenzy this story has caused. I think what Steven did was something we all would love to do: quit a job in a big, dramatic fashion. I know I have had those thoughts about a few bosses throughout my professional life.

What I want to know: why hasn't this passenger that caused the problem been arrested and charged? Not only was the passenger disobeying the flight crew's explicit instructions, but Steven was clearly injured. Why do people think they are entitled to treat flight attendants or customer service people so badly?


To Steven: I hope you are okay, and know that we at Hey Rude have your back. (Dude, you are freakin' America's New Folk Hero!)

Via CNN: "Flight attendants vent about passengers"



By A. Pawlowski, CNN
August 11, 2010 1:48 p.m. EDT

(CNN) -- It's safe to say air travelers are paying more attention -- and maybe giving a little more respect -- to flight attendants after the incident on a JetBlue flight that has mesmerized the country and put a new spotlight on the once-glamorous profession.

Crowded cabins, strict security and the lack of food and manners have affected flight attendants as much as passengers, but many fliers are just starting to realize their frustrations after Monday's altercation at New York's John F. Kennedy airport.

The details have already become legend.

Steven Slater, a JetBlue flight attendant, got into an argument with a passenger who was trying to remove a bag from the overhead bin while the plane was still taxiing, according to a source familiar with the incident.

The source said Slater asked the passenger to sit down, but the passenger continued to remove the bag, which struck Slater in the head. Slater asked for an apology, and the passenger refused and cursed at him, the source said.

Slater then got on the plane's public address system to say he'd had it, grabbed a couple of beers and slid off a plane through the escape chute.

He's in trouble with the law, but not with the public, where there's growing support for his dramatic exit.

"Wow, it's been very, very appreciated and it seems like something has resonated with a few people and that's kind of neat," Slater told CNN affiliate WABC.

Flight attendant released on bail

'Constant belittlement'

Many flight attendants and airline industry workers have been leaving comments on CNN.com to voice their support for Slater and vent their frustrations about rude passengers.

"As a flight attendant for a major U.S. international flag carrier, I've been called a b**** and assorted other names while on board an aircraft, had food trays thrown at me, and treated worse in this job than any other. There are days after constant belittlement and attempted subjugation I wanted to do the same thing," wrote stewRN.

Time: The stress of being a flight attendant

Others were concerned that the flying public sees them as little more than waiters and waitresses in the sky. For one, the indignities of the profession were just too much.

"I used to be a flight attendant. I left just after 1.5 years on the job. I was tired of not being treated with respect by passengers and management. After all these years, I still remember this kid saying loudly, 'Here comes the trash lady.' His father was laughing next to him," wrote a poster who identified herself as soundoff123.

Another former flight attendant recalled being horrified by the treatment airline employees receive from passengers.

"The flying public in America is the rudest bunch of people I've ever seen. In my short experience, I was cussed out, spit at, had things thrown at me, and [was] threatened with all sorts of violence. The traveling public believes they should be able to ignore rules and do whatever they want and you are a just a slave there just to serve them, that is until the plane crashes then you're supposed to be their savior," said ben5339.

Rudeness 'can be unbearable'...

Lying About Cancer To Make a Fast Buck. Nice move. (Via Gawker and the Toronto Star)


Adrian Chen of Gawker writes: "Meet your new devious cancer-scammer: 23-year-old Toronto resident Ashley Kirilow. She shaved her head, waxed her eyebrows, plucked her eyelashes and allegedly scammed more than $20,000 through her charity, "Change" for the Cure.

Kirilow—whose parents say "you couldn't trust anything she was saying" growing up—started her scam after having a benign lump removed from her breast in 2008, according to the Toronto Star. This minor operation was the seed from which Kirilow grew her elaborate cancer lie.

Pretending to have every cancer from brain to breast, she became the cause celebre of Toronto's music and skateboarding scene, tricking hundreds of people into helping her raise money for her treatment and her fake charity (really just a Facebook page), "Change for the Cure," through benefit concerts and change buckets. One event alone raised $9,000, and a skateboarding-related cancer charity gave her a free trip to Disney World.

One woman posted on her "charity's" Facebook wall: "I stand amazed that such a young soul could inspire so many with fresh drive to fight against a disease that has affected every one of us in some way. "

This all ended when her father discovered her scam, according to the Star..."

Via NJ.com and NJ Star-Ledger:Michaele Salahi vs. Whoopi Goldberg: Video

Vicki Hyman of the Star-Ledger writes: "It's clear that Michaele Salahi will go to any lengths in the name of self-promotion, so it is with mixed feelings that we report this latest publicity stunt, er, incident involving the alleged White House party-crasher and, not-so-coincidentally, cast member of Bravo's "Real Housewives of D.C."

Salahi is accusing Whoopi Goldberg of abusing her during Salahi's visit to "The View," first by popping out from backstage to shake her arm to get her back to the subject of the White House incursion while Salahi and the other housewives were being interviewed by Joy Behar and Sherri Shepherd, and then by screaming at her backstage after Salahi collapsed in tears over the incident.

Goldberg issued a statement via ABC, characterizing her impromptu interruption as a light touch to get Salahi's attention. When Salahi and husband Tareq made it clear they were upset by Goldberg's nudge, Goldberg "proceeded to defend herself verbally from this baseless claim in a heated exchange with the Salahis."

Most of the nudge was off-camera, and while Salahi did appear a little surprised by Goldberg's appearance, she did not appear to be physically harmed, to say the least.

The Salahi's lawyer, Lisa Bloom, tells the Daily Beast that Goldberg barged backstage screaming, "I didn't (bleeping) hit you! Did you say I (bleeping) hit you?"


Ugh. What a festival of crap.

Flying is stressful enough, do you have to be a D-Bag too?

Dear D-Bag on line at the airport-

Southwest has improved how you get on their planes. They give you a group number and another number for a place in the line. This is so it is not a free-for- all and you don't have to get there so early to get a good spot in line. So when I ask you, "what number are you?", don't answer me, "why?". Here is the thing, I was trying to be polite. You should try it sometime. I wanted to make sure that I was not cutting in front of you. And, seriously, are you a five year old? Making a annoying little comments is lame. Oh, and everyone heard you. You were trying to make me look like I had done something wrong, but in reality, you looked like the idiot. Well, let's be honest, you and your sidekick are idiots. So the next time you fly, don't be a smart-ass and just tell the person your number. Cause the next person you do this to, might not be so amazingly gracious as I. Have safe travels.

Via Gothamist and the NY Post: Diabetic Man Almost Dies During Subway Etiquette Arrest


Gothamist's John Del Signore writes: "Of all the stupid arrests of people caught putting their feet up on subway seats, this one has got to be the stupidest—and scariest—so far. The Post reports that Juan Castillo, a 25-year-old diabetic, almost died after spending 30 hours in police custody after he was arrested for disorderly conduct by cops. His crime: After injecting insulin through his trouser leg on the F train on September 17th last year, Castillo "lifted his right knee up and wedged his right heel on his seat, underneath his right buttock, so that he could more easily rub his thigh at the injection site."

Officer John Rocha spotted the infraction, and summoned Castillo off the train. Ordinarily, this sort of thing results in a summons, and the perpetrator is not taken into custody. But for reasons left unexplained by the tabloid, Castillo was arrested. He claims he was assured by other cops that he would be released "shortly" and that they brushed off his pleas for insulin. And when he called his sister, police allegedly told her not to deliver insulin because he'd be out soon.

Instead, they took him to Queens Central Booking and threw him in a holding cell, where he "began to throw up and... started drifting in and out of consciousness," according to the lawsuit Castillo's filing against the city. 30 hours after cops found him, Castillo was brought before a judge, who dismissed the charge. But he had to be taken to Metropolitan Hospital, where he remained for two days. He's suing the city for an undisclosed sum, and the NYPD's gonna to need to write a lot more summonses to help cover the cost."

Saggy pants are butt-ugly but legal: judge - NYPOST.com

[photo by Robert Kalfus, NY Post]

You have the right to look ridiculous.

A Bronx judge has thrown out a summons issued against a Bronx man for wearing saggy pants, finding that "the Constitution still leaves some opportunity for people to be foolish if they so desire."

Judge Ruben Franco said that although Julio Martinez may have offended the fashion police with his low-hanging and underwear-exposing pants, his manner of dress didn't deserve a ticket from a cop.

"While most of us may consider it distasteful, and indeed foolish, to wear one's pants so low as to expose the underwear . . . people can dress as they please, wear anything, so long as they do not offend public order and decency," the judge wrote.

Martinez was given his summons for disorderly conduct on April 20 of last year.

The summons by the unidentified police officer charged that Martinez had acted in a disorderly manner because he had "his pants down below his buttocks exposing underwear [and] potentially showing private parts."

There was no other reason listed for the ticket besides Martinez's pants, and Franco noted: "The issuance of this summons appears to be an attempt by one police officer to show his displeasure with a particular style of dress."

The officer has plenty of company -- the sloppy look has been the subject of derision from people ranging from Bill Cosby to President Obama, and the super-low rider has been banned in numerous towns across the country.

In New York, the boxers-baring look has been the subject of a targeted campaign by state Sen. Eric Adams of Brooklyn, who put up billboards urging youngsters to "Stop the Sag." He has said he doesn't want to criminalize saggy pants -- he just wants youngsters to know it's time to send the fashion trend the way of the legwarmer.

"You can raise your level of respect if you raise your pants," Adams said in a YouTube video.
