You don't paint you nails or watch videos on your phone without headphones on a bloody plane!!

BananaramaDefence · 2025-11-06T22:45:20+00:00

Surely I'm not being unreasonable here? There are 200 people squashed together already, why make it any more unpleasant than it has to be. Both of these things happened on my flight today. Can't edit the typo on the title🤣

Neverplayleapfrogwithmrpipes · 23/11/2025 19:21

I was on a train on the way back from Cardiff last night and there were about 7 separate people playing shitty tinny TikTok content at varying volume levels!
Buy some earplugs you cheap shits!

Nail varnish has a strong and unpleasant smell in confined spaces and is a known migraine trigger. Using it in an enclosed space is rather antisocial and selfish. I would suggest anyone considering painting their nails because they just can’t wait until the flight is over instead grab a glass of wine themselves and calm down. The urge to varnish will pass.

Girly get a glass of wine and calm down, nail varnish isn't radioactive, if your reaction to it is that bad I would be seeking medical advice. No one is a cunt for painting their nails x

To the contrary, videos without headphones seems to be a problem on every flight! I think airlines should implement a policy, at very least have signs up or share information that headphones are required out of courtesy, maybe sell cheap ones on board in case people forget or they break. They tell us we can't bring water or turn our data on and we all do it without question. It's hardly a big ask to monitor this issue which can cause enormous stress to passengers.

Haven't been on a plane for ten years - I'm shocked to hear this is becoming so commonplace, I recall if anyone watched the in-flight films they always did it through headphones. Totally agree - seems obvious to have a 'headphones only' policy - ridiculous that they don't have this!

They certainly are in an enclosed public space. And you’re one for calling a poster “girly”.

Because they’re the ones who do it 🤣

Oh yeah, the stench of nail varnish is just grand when you literally can't get away from it.. And there are no ways to ventilate the plane for 7 hours till we land.

I wish it had spilt on their selfish cunt trainers

Videos out loud is annoying, painting nails is fine unless they're spilling varnish everywhere

Please at least admit that you are, indeed a selfish twat.

I’d ask them to turn it down or put headphones on. It winds me up when people do it on the train.

StrongLikeMamma · 07/11/2025 14:56

100% agree - they need to bring earphones - utter fuck wits!

The entitlement and self absorption of some people knows no bounds. Total disregard for those around them, it’s infuriating.

I believe the term is selfish cunt.

beautifully summarised.

"Videos out loud is annoying, painting nails is fine unless they're spilling varnish everywhere".

Nail varnish stinks.

There is often someone spraying themselves when I travel on the train- a full 10 seconds spraying it everywhere Their BO must be bad if they need to do that.

Really? The smell in an enclosed space like a plane??

PermanentTemporary · 07/11/2025 14:03

Yeah I don’t normally say anything. Because it’s stressful and frightening. Why the fuck should I have to gear up to tell someone something obvious about their own behaviour in public?

I had the nails thing once and I grassed her to the flight attendant, who told her to stop.

balkanscot · 07/11/2025 13:54

Apart from the smell, nail polish is also flammable. Is it even allowed in hand luggage? I know the chances are small but if it did ignite, in a metal tube, full of people squashed together, at 11,000 m height…

MimiGC · 07/11/2025 13:48

I would rather these anti-social gits did it on a plane, compared to on a train or bus. Because a) there are several staff on board, one of whom might be willing to tell them to pack it in, and b) because they can’t stab you for daring to challenge them.

Better than the smell of people’s arses. Or breath.
the amount of people who just fart away with complete abandon on a flight. 🤢

TBF there's a good physiological reason for the latter....

I recently flew on a plane with wifi and they made very clear announcements that under no circumstances were out-loud videos, music or calls permitted at any point. I think they would have enforced it if needed as well.

Did you say something? Everyone always says they're too afraid of confrontation but everybody I've addressed has always turned the volume off. Somtimes it's accompanied with embarrassment and sometimes a glare and a mutter but oh well.

Absolutely I said something, so she stopped and her mate did hers instead!! So I spoke to cabin crew (Wizz Air) who told them to "do it at the front of the plane instead" as if that makes a difference!!!
