Fesshole 🧻Jan 6
I have an Irish passport but my partner has a British passport. Going to get a relaxing coffee whilst he's queueing with the Brits is the part of the holiday I look forward to the most.

@fesshole I assume this is sarcasm, yes?

@gcvsa @fesshole I wouldn't bet on it being sarcasm, this being Fesshole where marital guerrilla warfare seems to be rampant.

@Eetschrijver @fesshole I would have thought the wasted time due to Brexit was annoying.

@gcvsa
It IS annoying. But for a surprising number of Fessers, the schadenfreude for any discomfort the other half undergoes is first and foremost a source of joy. Don't ask me to explain, for it's totally beyond me.

@gcvsa @Eetschrijver @fesshole it's not just the different queues that do it
It's the "extra mile"* they go to where they ensure there's only one window open and 350 Brits to process.
The Germans excel at this 😂

*Extra kilometer, obvs.

@MattPCart @gcvsa @Eetschrijver @fesshole Schiphol has been the absolute worst I've ever encountered, FWIW - I think we queued for over three hours (to shuffle across a distance of maybe 100 metres) back in September

@mossman @gcvsa @Eetschrijver @fesshole ouch. Prague was bad, but that was only about 75 mins. Mind you, I want to argue that Prague was worse because it was the same day that England lost the world cup 😂
Loads of Brits wearing England shirts at the airport. Never saw a single one the next day 👍🏻
