Today, I was on a 12-hour transatlantic flight. I asked the flight attendant where the rancid smell was coming from. The guy sitting next to me started laughing, saying, "Sorry, something I ate is not agreeing with me." This was hour one of the flight. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I'm on a 14-hour flight, stuck next to a large man whose rancid body odor is eclipsed only by his constant flatulence, which he loudly blames on me every time. On my other side is his friend who laughs like a moose at everything. There are no empty seats and no-one will trade with me. FML
Today, I'm on a 16 hour flight. Five minutes in, the lady on one side has clipped her toenails onto me and the guy on the other side has the most horrific gas I have ever smelled. To help this problem he bought a cheese plate from the stewardess. 15 hours and 55 minutes to go. FML
Today, on the airplane, the kid behind me kicked my seat hundreds of times, while the big bald guy next to me farted deadly ones repeatedly. I was on a non-stop 14-hour flight. FML
Today, I boarded my flight and sat next to a man. I told him I had hoped he was a hot woman and he concurred. He said at least I wasn't obese and I replied "At least you aren't smelly". Minutes later I realize he had the most disgusting foot odour ever... the barefoot kind. I suffered for 11 hours. FML
Today, I had a several-hour-long flight. I was put in a seat at the very back of the plane. Before the plane even lifted off, a woman took a dump in the bathroom that I stank for the rest of the flight. Whenever I tried to get some sleep, the flight attendant walked past, savagely jostling me. FML
Today, I got my own row on an almost full transatlantic flight. All it took was having food poisoning two hours into the flight. FML
Today, I'm in the middle seat on a flight to Dallas. The guy on the aisle is sleeping with his mouth open and I can smell his breath. I feel nauseous. FML
Today, I discovered the worst possible situation in which to get explosive diarrhea: on a 9-hour transatlantic flight. Next to an attractive single guy. FML
Today, I was on an early flight home after a night of drinking. I was sat in my seat when I started feeling sweaty and nauseous. I grabbed the puke bag and started gagging, then puking, and a really loud fart came out. Everyone heard it. The attendant switched me seat to sit alone. FML
Today, during a long flight, I tried to discreetly pass gas. Instead, I misjudged the pressure and ended up making a loud noise that everyone around me seemingly heard. To make matters worse, the flight attendant asked if everything was OK. Now I’m probably remembered as "Farts on a plane." FML

A "trans-Atlantic flight overseas?" YDI for being redundant.

wow, this isn't that bad, just plug your nose when you have to breathe in. I don't think he will be farting for the entire 12 hours, anyways. Also, how did you go across the Atlantic in 12 hours if you're in Taiwan?

unless your transatlantic flight goes across a whole lot of land, like most of america for example, then your flight should only take about 6-8 hours.

Uh, not all flights to your final destination are direct. It took me 4 different planes and 20 hours+ to fly transpacific to Hong Kong once(cheaper tickets). It takes about 7-8 hours from NYC to London. It depends on where he left and where he landed(maybe for a transfer flight?). Maybe he had a connecting flight somewhere in south Asia. Who are we to say how long a flight could be if we don't know where he's flying from or who he is flying with. Where did you fly from BTW? I was always told its okay to fart in an airplane because the seat cushions are designed to soak in the stink. And...transatlantic flight overseas is redundant. Get it right

Everyone's getting so worked up about him saying he's from Taiwan and taking a transatlantic flight. When you fly to Taiwan, you typically fly over the Pacific. HOWEVER - he never ONCE said where he was going or where he was coming from. He could merely be from Taiwan. And, after vising Taiwan, I would think he's very lucky to say that, Taiwan is a beautiful and amazing place that I wish I could say I was from. I live in California but I am from Utah, so I typically say Utah because I lived there longer. You guys argue for the sake of arguing...but then again, welcome to the internet.
