I know airlines must accommodate people with disabilities, but for this flight attendant they should probably make an exception.

Why? I’m following the Reddit convention of replying before I watch the video, but

  • a lot can be communicated by gestures and touch
  • surely the flight attendant has or can get an effing smartphone to type or translate

Whoosh

Edit: for those missing the point, this was directed at myself

/me, ducking in panic, as a thunderous whooshing noise fills the sky, as @[email protected] kindly identifies the point sailing by just out of my reach

/me, red-faced with embarrassment, as @[email protected] kindly points out my word conveys unintended meaning to those of you not listening to my inner monologue

@AA5B This kind of reply is just childish.

Wow, even self-deprecation is off limits now? Yes, someone said I misunderstand the post, my reply intended to admit it went over my head, and now I’m childish for admitting that?
