A woman boarding a plane has found herself facing an impossible choice today, as she tries to choose which empty seat she will take – the one next to a screaming baby who appears to have shit his nappie, or a Tool fan.
As the last person to board, Stephanie Price, 28, knows that even though she does have an allocated seat (next to the Tool fan), she knows she could also take the empty seat next to the kid.
But who is the lesser evil?
“If I sit next to the kid, I have to put up with the screaming”, thinks Stephanie as she puts her baggage in the overheard locker, “but if I sit next to the Tool fan, I have to listen to him talk about polyrhythms for two hours straight while I pretend to understand what he’s talking about.”
“Hmm.”
Hearing the baby’s scream take on a demonic pitch, Stephanie hastily decides to sit next to the Tool fan, but quickly finds herself regretting the decision when she finds out he’s also a fan of Severance – making him, quite possibly, the most insufferable man alive.
“Aw dude you need to watch it, it’s so clever hey.”
“So there’s innies and outies..”
More to come.
