He’s mad that two women are savvier than he is. Sat there in his $70 extra chair he has been made to feel stupid because they got the same thing for free.
Terminal boomer YOU GOTTA FOLLOW THE RULES brain but the rules are just entirely made up on the spot, this is exactly the drive behind “Area Man Passionate Defender Of What He Imagines Constitution To Be” and “You live in a gated community and you go on a walk at night” (among other boomer characters on this channel). It is entirely about desire to exercise unearned power over other people.
plane tickets are a gamble. you pay for seat upgrades to guarantee you get them on a full flight. i, an adversarial asshole, never pay for anything more than a random spot at booking. 95% of the time, it does not work out in my favor. i get the shittiest seat. but i save that $20-40 and i can use it for something else that i might actually enjoy for a while.
every once in a while, i get a good one. and it feel’s almost as good as watching this loser whine about getting outplayed.
Lizard brain. Basic stuff we’ve all lived with (by living in a society) since kids were old enough to give voice to a parent that it’s not being fair if big sis gets a cookie and I don’t.
“I WANT AN ICE CREAM TOO, MOM!” “Of course, Billy, it’s only fair.”
So this guy wants his seat for free too. Because in his mind it’s only fair. And if that can’t happen he wants the opposite, them paying the same as he did, for the same reason.
Inertia. Habit. History. They all rule the day.
IT HAS TO BE FAIR! WE HAVE TO BE EVEN!
What the fuck kind of childish bullshit is this?
In bad country the social order is such that everyone is required to be economically equal, and if you break this social order you are publicly shamed and ridiculed. Your individual economic situation must conform to masses standard or be hidden. No one is allowed to show the world that inequality is the true nature of their national ideology.
