Life Question For The Ladies...Milk Cannons On Airlines. - Page 5

**Bwana** · 07-30-2010, 07:14 PM

Ok ladies, help me out here.

So I'm flying back from Kalamazoo, Michigan today. I make it to Detroit and got delayed because "the choosen one, Barry" was in the area with Air Force One. I make it onto the Detroit to Minneapolis flight after Barry decided to move his ass.

I end up in the back row, I'm talking the last seat on the jet back row, on the right side. Off to my right, there is a gal with an 8 month old sitting on her lap next to me, by the window. Across the way on my left, there is what looks to be about a seven year old girl by the window, and another mother with an eight month old sitting on her lap. I grab "Deb" the fight attendent and told her, I must have really done something to piss someone off. She smiled and told me she would hook me up with some free beers and laughed.

About 10 minutes after we take off, I was talking to the lady off to my right and glanced over and noticed she had whipped out one of her milk cannons. I'm taking zero cover. I look over and jr. is going to town on this bad boy. I was like, alriiiiiiiiiiiiiiighty then. After About 15 minutes I look over to my left and mother #2 is doing the same thing. Neither one of them went to any trouble to cover up the milk cannons. I'm sitting there trying not to laugh. Seriously, WTF are the odds of one doing this, much less two.

Deb come by again and I told her to skip the beer, just bring me some whisky and make it a double. She looks around and sees the same thing. Her mough about hit the floor and she comes back with three little bottles of whisky and I smile.

So girls, is this the freaking norm these days or what?

I do think woman need to cover up, but I don't get why you would be so upset if she were covered. You seem to think a mother should not be seen outside of her home feeding her child.

The only thing the women on the plane did wrong, in my opinion, was not cover up.

Personally, it wouldn't upset or offend me either way, and I don't even recall ever witnessing it being done anyway. The only thing I took exception to was the earlier comment where someone defended it by saying it was either that or listen to a screaming kid, which is bullshit.

But it is awkward, and I can't for the life of understand why a woman would even want to do it in public in the first place.

I will say this, it was a one of a kind trip.

The comment about a screaming child was referring to an infant being on an airplane, the best combatant is feeding the child. One can not use the argument about putting the milk in a bottle either, the milk will only last so long without being kept cold, and an infant will not drink cold milk.

No woman wants to breast feed their baby in public, it is an evil necessity. Okay, maybe the really big attention whores do.

I guess it could have been a much worse flight. I could have had Jimmy the jerkaholic across from me, rubbing one out.

That reminds of that story from a couple years ago where the lady fell asleep on a flight and woke up with some perv spooning her and had splooge on her clothes. Now THAT would be a bad flight.

I don't have a problem with boobies or women feeding their kids. I had an aunt who breast fed her 3 kids until they lost their baby toofers - in front of everybody.

**DaneMcCloud** · 07-30-2010, 10:33 PM

Dude...

You should have ordered a White Russian and asked her for some milk.

Seriously, it's all about nature. Who gives a ****?

You kill any four legged or gilled creature you choose, but the sight of a baby's mouth on a nipple freaks you out?

Lighten up, Compadre. And next time, report on those nipples!

Yeah no shit. If you wake up and you're covered in DNA, that WOULD be a VERY bad day.

D-Man, I'm not going to lose any rest over the "encounter," or run over and get numerous treatments at the local shrink. It's all good, I just wanted to see what the pulse was on the subject and see if anyone else had run into dueling milk cannons on a cross country flight. I must admit, it sparked more of a debate than I projected.

I tried apologizing to her but she wouldn't accept it.

Still, though, she took it a lot better than that dude next to me on the Greyhound bus a few weeks later.

i'm guessing that most of the people that have a problem with this don't have kids.

Lonewolf Ed · 07-31-2010, 06:40 AM

Bringing infants into movie theaters is just a bad idea all around. The baby doesn't get a thing out of it and the sound levels generally set them to screaming. Travel, however, is a different story. It's not fair to inisist that babies can't go on flights. Families visit and babies should not be excluded, nor should a breast feeding mother be forced to bottle feed in public, on a plane or not. I don't enjoy hearing a baby scream on a flight, but I only get pissed off when some undisciplined kid between 3 and 6 screams his or her head off and the parents don't do a thing to make the kid shut up.

When I was that age, my mother made it very clear to me that when I was on an airplane, I had to act like I did in church: no screaming and carrying on and no kicking the seat in front of me. Parents today just don't understand or care that the rest of us do not find their horrid brat to be cute nor can we block out his or her shrieks. I have seen kids standing in their seats and just shrieking at the passengers behind them for entertainment and the parent acts oblivious to it. That makes me wish for sudden, violent turbulence...
