Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.

Our Rules:

  1. Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.

  2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.

  3. Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.

  4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

  5. No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.

They're not thinking of it from your point of view, where you've come from any one of thousands of different airports with different rules.

They're thinking of it from their own point of view. Where they've been doing the same thing every day for years, with rules that don't change much if at all, and somehow every single motherfucker that comes through their line gets it wrong.

To be fair, having to repeatedly explain the same fairly simple rules over and over and over again to people who are just not getting it would wear pretty thin fairly quickly. But it's not really the fault of everyone else for not knowing that specific airport's specific rules.
