Oh, I hear you. I didn't actually expect it to work. As soon as the plan landed, I didn't even really bother, because it was obvious it wasn't gonna happen, and I didn't want to shove 40 people out of the way or climb over seats to get there. My connection was so tight because of the delay, it would have been a crapshoot even if the aisles were clear.

But just because I realize things like civilized society, "common" courtesy and kindness have gone in the crapper, doesn't mean I have to like it. I can be curmudgeonly that way
