    We might have had a chance, except she then grabbed her personal bag and rushed to the front of the plane as we were pulling into the gate, taking up precious space as others attempted to empty the overhead bins.

    That’s when I knew her penis was even smaller than mine.

    At least the airplane clapping could be seen as cheering on the pilot for doing a good job. Much worse, imo, is the movie theater clapper. Those actors, directors and crew can’t hear your claps. They mean nothing!

      As a teen most of my summer hollidays were spent visting abuela and abuelo in spain. Cinema (double features) were around 100 Pesetas (compared to Euro, w/o inflation 50 Cents(!). As you can imagine I saw every movie (rated or not).

      First time was a culture shock (compared to the mostly silent German cinema audience), as they not only clapped, they also cheered or booed at any time the hero or villain did something heroesque/villainous.

      But I grew into it and am missing it really. I wish this would be a thing everywhere.

      Edit: I want to add that I’m an ancient person and ask any Spaniards: Is this still a thing?

    What’s wrong with clapping when the airplane land? I miss that when it was the norm when I was a kid

    Why do people care this much about completely harmless and inconsequential things other people do? I’ve personally never given a shit when someone else claps when a plane lands, same with people clapping in movie theatres. The world is miserable enough, let people enjoy the little things, it’s not like they’re forcing you to clap with them.

      No, but they are forcing you to listen to the noise they make.

      Making unnecessary noise is inconsiderate to those around you.
