Today, I was on a red-eye flight, and the woman beside me was chattering loudly to her friend. I opened my laptop and got to work. Suddenly, one of the women turned to me and told me that the clicking of my keyboard was too loud. She then called me an inconsiderate selfish bitch. FML
I agree, your life sucks (24598) - you totally deserved it (855)

I would have told her I'm making complaint to the plane crew about some btich talking to me.

I think the correct way to deal with this situation is to burn her with caustic very slowly, instead of just punching her?
everyone has caustic handy on a plane, right?

I think the OP handled it by submitting this FML. It must have annoyed the shit out of that lady. I mean, that would take a lot of typing. Especially if you were to backspace a lot. :D

Waaaa waaaa fuckin waaa, an inconsiderate bitch called you an inconsiderate bitch, it doesnt effect you in any way shape or form whatsoever guuuuhhh lyykkk

You see, that is when you close your laptop (be sure to save your work), grip it firmly on both sides, raise it, and beat the living shit outta her with it!!
oh yes, because it's closing the computer, not beating someone with it (and probably breaking it) that will delete her work.

Whats better is to close the computer, put it carefully away, take off your shoe (preferably an stiletto heel) and then beat her with the shoe. That way you don't have to worry about damaging your computer or going to jail for murder.

I think they were saying make sure to save your work in preparation for the beating that is to come. Heh, screw closing the laptop and beating her with it, Put on some really screamo music and blast it loudly, either that or derogative rap music. If she gets pissy and calls the stawrdess turn it off then hide the laptop. =D

Whoa, watch it man, saying something isnt an FML can get your comment deleted and a stern email from the FML Gestapo.
You should have said "Oh never mind" and started making a lot more keyboard noises than before... Tit for Tat you see...
*Smiles*
What a heartwarming story. And such a nice lady. =)

Why don't you tell her that you are trying to keep up with them .. and beg them to appreciate your effort.
#11 - On 12/07/2009 at 4:11am by KalvinAlexander
Maybe she said so in irony , and meant what she said, to the woman who was chattering . This is a possibility ...
you should've punched her in the fucking cunt
I fucking hate hypocrites.

WIN!!! Yea OP, this is an awsome idea! Oh well all in retrospect...
#24 - On 12/07/2009 at 5:35am by Starfire22
SERIOUSLY! I'd have been like, "Oh, well I'm sorry my keyboard noise is too loud for you, but if I can't sleep because you won't shut your fucking yapper, what else am I supposed to do?"
#63 - On 12/07/2009 at 12:46pm by avoidthegirl
lol been through similiar situations the problem is I got tongue tied when they say I am inconsiderate.
the big problem is that you only ever think of a good reaction/reply AFTER the incident, and it leaves you feeling even worse about the situation.
Stare for a few seconds, point at her, laugh like a maniac, then continue your work as if nothing happened.
Too bad you didn't have gas. You could have leaned to her side, repeatedly farted and fanned them over to her. if she is calling you inconsiderate, you may as well go all out.
She's right. Everyone enjoys loud chattering. It provides entertainment for the whole cabin. Computer noises just sound like the plane is malfunctioning and panics people into thinking they are going to crash and burn.
Put the fucking computer away and enjoy the onboard entertainment provided for you!
You're so defensive! Last time you were on a plane did someone shut you up for talking too loudly about your genital warts?

tell her that you'll quit the clicking when she shuts her cum receptacle. and i think it would have been worth the value of the laptop to bash her over the head with it.
#37 - On 12/07/2009 at 10:02am by jazzmancarron
Man, you should have just smiled and nodded, and continued to type. :D
#40 - On 12/07/2009 at 10:28am by littlexlion
i agree with 40, but instead of smileing and nodding u should of put the finger up and continued
#42 - On 12/07/2009 at 10:33am by I_deserve_nothin
Should have entered Microsoft Sam (if you have it) voice suite and typed in "Bomb Armed", lean in and in a very quiet voice say "Praise Allah"
Watch her scream turn white then scream some more, turn red and then after you've alt+f4 like a bastard to turn off your laptop watch her be arrested for causing a bomb scare.

This sounds like an expert testimonial. Learned from experience, have we?
#47 - On 12/07/2009 at 10:45am by Brave_Sir_Robin
She desserves to be punched in the face her and her big mouth hope punched her. I bet you wanted to LOL :D
why is it people demand silence when they're using transportation? you can't even talk to your friend next to you any louder than an inaudible whipser without people whining about you. it's like people WANT to sit in silence and unbearable boredom until they reach their destination.
#48 - On 12/07/2009 at 10:55am by 42billybob
Oh, you must've missed that part where OP said it was a RED EYE FLIGHT. Meaning in the middle of the goddamn night. So that dumb bitch was probably preventing EVERYONE around her from sleeping.
#64 - On 12/07/2009 at 12:48pm by avoidthegirl
Okay, while the woman should realize that this is a late flight, and others want to sleep, I must play devil's avocate for a moment. Some people--myself being one of them--find certain sounds to be very enraging. Not annoying. Enraging. Keyboards cackling can be one of these sounds (it's a milder one for me), though mouth noises such as gum chewing are usually the worst. However, if this woman was one of those people like me, I'm not sure why in the world she was on an airplane without an iPod or the like to cover sounds like this (I ALWAYS bring my MP3 player when I go on a plane or the like!). Not to mention, this problem is usually something the makes people feel ashamed (I know I do) because it's so "socially unacceptable" to be intolerate to such noises, I'm surprised she was so open about it. It's quite possible she's just a very nasty person, but I have to raise awareness for my own kind, since very few people realize this problem even exist for some. :(
You need to seek medical attention. You have severe issues.
#56 - On 12/07/2009 at 11:41am by Brak_Spaceman
if this woman was already chattering away, then the keyboard clacking shouldn't have bothered her. if you're saying that you have some sort of mental problem where you can't tune such noises out while you're talking, then yes, go get some professional help.

My first college roommate didn't want me typing when she was trying to go to sleep, because she couldn't focus on getting to sleep. This reminds me of that.
#57 - On 12/07/2009 at 11:44am by eki
my second college roommate wanted to sleep with the window open when it was 40 degrees outside because she slept with sweatpants and a sweatshirt on. college roommates are a horrible experience. so glad i got a single room after that.
#60 - On 12/07/2009 at 11:51am by atty11
that's why you wear headphones and pretend you can't hear her!!!!
#62 - On 12/07/2009 at 12:04pm by patticake1601
And then, there was the obvious response. Laugh, and then say, "It takes one to know one, huh...." Then laugh in her face again.
#67 - On 12/07/2009 at 1:13pm by blastvortex
Hmm. I didn't read any news about a murder taking place in an airplane, so congratulations. I would have killed the bitch. You must have good self-control.
I wouldve... well no comment. it's obvious that you instead put this on fml instead of beating the living shit out of the bitch, so FYL hard.
#70 - On 12/07/2009 at 2:57pm by hXcsoccerplaya
YDI for being such a pushover and not telling her to go fuck herself
#76 - On 12/07/2009 at 7:28pm by athame1983
That's when you say, "Oh sorry, my typing is bothering you? I'll stop typing." Then go watch a noisy video on your laptop.
i probably would have told her off.. using some awesome cuss words.. maybe even calling her a dumb fat cunt... yeah... i hate people like that..
#80 - On 12/07/2009 at 8:59pm by ohgosh_noooo
@#34, because when the stwardess finds out it was you she'll say dont make me turn this plane around, @person, fyl because you dont stand up for yourself or u wouldnt be so pissed off about the outcome of the sitatuion.. in my opinion, people like this need something said to them.
#85 - On 12/08/2009 at 12:36am by sparkleprincess
Shoulda pulled out your headphones, listen to your music so loud that you couldn't hear her scream at your for being so loud and continue to type loudly.
#86 - On 12/08/2009 at 12:59am by surferbabe
I would've said "Oh I'm sorry I'm a bitch, I never learned how to say fuck you politely." Then I would've flipped the finger and continued on with my work. Plus, I would've tossed in some really loud music just to bug the crap outta her. People need to learn selective hearing, it works for kids all the time. Should've just socked her.
You should have just told the bitch off. When she complained, just look at her casually and tell her to blow it out her ass then go back to work. Or say, "Then you had better have packed a pair of earplugs, bitch, because I'm not going to stop my work." Then give her the double barreled salute.
What a bitch! I would've told her to stick it where the sun dont shine- then I would have put on something really obscene and play it loudly to annoy the living shit out of her. If she complained again- Id have said- Sit on it.
