Kryptic Posted May 15, 2006 Share Posted May 15, 2006 This is a story of British Airways, and how they helped own a Racist ol'lady. This little (white) old lady was seated next to a black male. Seeing how she was racist, she called for the stewartess.. "Is it possible that there is another seat? I cant be seated next to a man of dark complexion - it insults my heritage." The black man is just stunned beyond belief, while the stewartess finally replies.. "Ill see what I can do." Few moments later, the stewartess returns.. "We have no more seats in coach, but there is one seat left in first class...And if you would be so kind, and let this kind gentlemen through to his seat." Everyone then stood up and clapped. THUMBS UP BRITISH AIRWAYS! :lol: (thx to the merciful) _____________________________________________________________ The lady did get owned, cause she was expecting a better seat - thinking her claim of a black man being lower than her, was appropriate.

Bubsa Posted May 15, 2006 Share Posted May 15, 2006 I've heard this story a lot and, although it's such a good story, it strikes me as an Urban Legend. This is how much you all raised for charity. Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bjbj1991 Posted May 15, 2006 Share Posted May 15, 2006 You cant stand up in coach, and you barly have room for your hands so the last line of this story is false. Also airlines are usualy not that nice to people, but they may have figured that he could sue them so why risk a suit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Giordano Posted May 16, 2006 Share Posted May 16, 2006 First time I heard it :| Me too, but LOL.

Kryptic Posted May 16, 2006 Author Share Posted May 16, 2006 Whether its true or not, it sure puts a smile on my face - and i like to believe that its true, because racism is still a problem. :( In Khazakstan we say God, Man, Horse, Dog, then Woman, Rat and small cockroach..M.A.D 4 Lyfe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How2PK Posted May 16, 2006 Share Posted May 16, 2006 The lady didn't get owned. The black man got a better seat. She doesn't have to sit next to the black man anymore. She just got what she asked.

Mercifull Posted May 16, 2006 Share Posted May 16, 2006 British Airlines doesnt exist ;) Its British Airways :P This story obviously isnt true but perhaps its good to have a little laugh at silly old racists, im sure we all know a few of them.

The average US domestic planes might only have 73 cm seat pitch but British Airways domestic begins at 78 cm and to Europe at 86 cm. I think that the world services by BA go up to 96 cm in economy too :D Mercifull <3 Suzi "We don't want players to be able to buy their way to success in RuneScape.

Antrune Posted May 16, 2006 Share Posted May 16, 2006 If she doesnt want to sit next to a black man so be it. Being a different colour is just a physical appearance and if she didnt like that or want to see it then she has the right to move. So lets all take our moral high ground and call her a racist. And yes I do know its a made up story. And no lol why do you always want to get stuff from John Lewis. Its over ̣̉300 more then than what i paid. John Lewis is a great, great shop.
