Flight passenger ignites debate after being told to 'climb over' seatmate for bathroom break

I might do that, but if you make me I’m going to make you wish you took the extra couple seconds to just get up and let me out. How much do we owe our plane-mates?

In this episode of Beleaguered Staffers, Laura Finch and Sean Magers take us behind the scenes of what happens when a campaign ends, and the scramble to set up a congressional office begins. From securing office space to hiring staff (or ensuring your own spot in the new office), the transition is anything but smooth.

Also Worth A Look…

  • This Chrome extension will change 'Gulf of America' back to 'Gulf of Mexico' - It reminds me of that scene on The Simpsons when they visit Australia and the toilets in the embassy have an elaborate gadget that makes the water swirl in the other direction to be like the US

  • Student paraglides to college after getting late for exam, netizens react, watch viral video - Go big or go home. How could the professor be mad at him for being late after he put on a big show like that?

  • Thieves use U-Haul truck in smash-and-grab at Sasquatch Bricks, steal $10K in Lego sets - They managed to get away with 4 whole sets

  • Michigan judge sentences Walmart shoplifters to wash cars in retailer's parking lot - I like the creativity here

  • ‘I own this body!’: Funeral home owner found guilty of deadly shooting of pallbearer during funeral for 10-year-old gunshot victim - Probably not the best way to try to drum up more business for yourself

  • There Was a Rocket Launch Every 34 Hours Last Year - That’s quite a giant leap, to borrow a phrase

  • Why U.S. ranchers and farmers are alarmed about Canada's destructive "super pigs" - Who had “Super Pigs” for February?

  • Tourist Tries to Get Shark in Photo, Loses Both Hands - Maybe don’t try to take a picture of a shark

  • Bill to ban mRNA vaccines passes out of House committee - That’s less than ideal

  • Oysters Carry Protein That Kills Bacteria Behind Pneumonia, Strep Throat, and Scarlet Fever: Study - No deal. I’ll take my chances with the respiratory gunk rather than chocking down oysters
