Don't lean your seat back on a plane or bus.

We get it, you deserve to be in first class. You're not supposed to be back here with these commoners. These peasants. You're a king! A queen! They must have made a mistake with your ticket.

“Economy class? No, no, no, no. That's not right. I mean, I know I BOOKED an economy class ticket, but that's not where I'm supposed to be. Look at me! I'm gorgeous! I have a leather jacket on! My hair is done! I'm reading a People Magazine! This can't be! Well, if I HAVE to sit back here, I'll ACT as if I'm in first class. Seat, like Fat Joe says, lean back!”

Look, we ALL wish we were up there. We all see the perks as we kick our bags through the section to the back of this tube. Your own armrest. Drinks the entire flight. Not having to put your knees in the seat pocket in front of you.

“Umm, this may sound strange, but I found knee caps in this pouch?”

“Hmmm. Must have been from the last person who flew in that seat. They did drag themselves out of here by their arms screaming and crying the whole way. Do you want me to throw them out so you can place yours there? Or do you want to hand me your knees and place them in the overhead bin?”

We ALL want more room, but guess what - in economy, we don't have it.We are in the back of this plane, smashed together like the luggage we are sitting above. And like that luggage underneath, for christ sake we have to work together on this flight. So DO NOT lean your seat back.

When you lean your seat back, you are saying to the person behind you, 'Hey, dirt bag, do I care that your legs already don't fit? Do I care at all that my chair is your table, and when I lean it back your bagel and coffee could pour into your lap? No. No I don't. So suck me, bud. Here comes that crotch coffee!'

To continue to be a good person on this planet, we all have to understand that we are all flying through the sky TOGETHER. Unless you own a plane or you're Richard Branson or a new music artist who thinks the money will never stop, you are flying with other people. And with that, we have to do what is good for everyone. You leaning your seat back helps you. It helps you and slowly kills the people behind you. If you're driving in a two door car in the front seat and someone has to get in the back, what would a human being do? The human being in the front seat would say, 'Hey person in the back seat, do you need some more room?' What would a horrible monster of a person do? Just jam their seat back, ask no questions, and ignore the screams of pain from the person in the back seat.

“What? Your legs are bleeding? Man, this song sure is great, huh? Woooooo!”

Leaning your seat back makes everyone have to lean their seat back. You give them no option. If you lean yours back and the person behind you doesn't, then they are going to be taking a bite of your seat.

“Would you like a complimentary snack, sir?”

“Nope. All good. I really have a hunk of this leather going right now. Hopefully this guy leans back farther so I can get a bite of his seat belt. Mmm hmmm, this seat is good. What year is this? '86?”

And in all seriousness, is leaning it back helping you in anyway? So you get another degree of arch in your back. Good. Comfortable now, huh? Just like your bed at home. Just like your favourite chair.

“I can't wait to get home and relax. I'm gonna lean my Lazy Boy back a sweet and sexy two centimetres. Upright is so uncomfortable. Scarily close to upright is where the real action is. THAT'S how you really relax. Right near the edge of upright.”

We want to lean our seats back because we can. It's part of the package. We paid for these seats and lord knows were not getting that much from it. I'm sure soon they'll even charge you to do that.

“Excuse me. Something seems to be wrong with my seat. It won't lean back.”

“Oh, you just have to insert your credit card here and then follow the prompts to...”

“Wait, my credit card?”

“Yes, sir. It's $3.99 to put your seat back. Next year we're going to be charging $5 for passengers to be allowed to put their feet on the floor.”

I get it. So, if you can't adhere to this rule, and have to lean your seat back, at LEAST look behind you first. Don't just lean it back without looking. Do you just throw yourself out of your drive way without glancing in the mirror?

“All right. The car is warmed up. I have GOT to get to the grocery store RIGHT NOW, so no need for the mirror. Just put this in reverse and punch it! ...All right. Only hit one dog. And it wasn't my fault because I didn't see it!”

There is a person behind you! Check to see what the hell they are doing before you just throw your head back. You could be crushing a laptop screen! You could be throwing eggs into their chest! You could be jamming eyeliner into their eye! It will not kill you to turn around. Even to ask. Bet nine times out of ten people will say that it's cool, even though it's taken up their space.

“Yo, you care if I put my seat back in your face, leaving you with only a couple of inches to breath and generally move, so that I can be slightly more comfortable and you can be infinitely less comfortable?'

“....Sure, no problem.”

Men's clothing sections. Grey all day.

Now, look, this is dumb. Yes, I know this. It's not the biggest problem in the world. This is barely a thing to even yell about. Bigger problems in the world? Yes. But still, for god sake, can we change up clothing stores a bit? Is there anyway these things could become different so that every gender of human can find some thing that they would like? Can we have these places be a bit more fair? 

"I am a man. I would like clothes."

"We have two."

"Two sections?"

"No. Two options. Here they are. Interested?"

Women want to be represented in movies and TV. Cool. All for it. I get the same feeling any time I go shopping. The entire store is full of women's stuff. ALL of it. There are clothes hanging from the ceiling. There are three floors, and every one of them has womens' clothes. All of them.

"Hey, where are the children's stuff?"

"Second floor. Beside the women's stuff."

"Cool. And Men's?"

"First floor. Beside the women's stuff."

"And women's?"

"You're standing in it, and first floor, third floor, and we keep some things out on the street."

Can men's clothes be found? Sure. But what is there? A couple of shirts. A couple pairs of pants. In the corner. Just stuck in a corner. It's almost as if the men's stuff is just there to keep a man's attention while his girlfriend/wife is shopping. The men's sections in stores are like the day care in an office building. Just some busy time so that mom and dad, or wife girlfriend doesn't have to be bothered with you and can get their stuff done. 

"Okay, so mama's gonna shop for a minute. You'll be okay here spinning in a circle looking at this one pair of shorts?"

"Ga ga ga, goo goo goo."

"Ahhhh. Here's some Gushers. I'll be back in an hour. Just keep spinning!"

There also could be some more options. Women's sections are just full of different things, with different colours of each thing. Men's sections do not have a lot, and what they do have, is what they have. Sweater? It's the colour it is. Or, they'll be a black, grey, navy, brown. Slow down, world! You wouldn't want to put a colour on a man! Just brown, grey, black, navy. No colours. Women's section has colours on colours on colours. 

"It's like a rainbow! There's some many options!"

Most men's sections look like No Hearts closet. Actually, No Heart had some purple in his robe. Most men's sections look like No Heart castle. 

"Hey, I'm looking for pants?"

"Sure. Just cross that draw bridge, climb the dark steps of that stormy castle and you'll find what you're looking for."

"Jesus! Are these crows going to squawk at me the whole time?"

"Well, yes. You're entering their lair."

"Do you have some clothes that are not up there?"

"You're speaking of women's clothes. Men's clothes are kept in the castle, in the crypt in the castle, or in the cemetery behind the castle. And two of those three places right now are being used as overstock for women's clothes."

2 Chainz and Nancy Grace tag team.

Nancy Grace and 2Chainz talked about legalizing weed. And the winner was? A hit count on YouTube. Neither of these people are in any kind of control over whether or not weed gets legalized. Nancy Grace and 2Chainz talking legalizing weed is like a couple of aunts talking about what the States should do with their soldiers.

'I'll tell you what they should do. Pull the goddamn troops out! And fix everything they destroyed over there!'

"Guys. Your both covered in powdered donuts. They're not coming to you.'

They have no control over the outcome. Either way, Grace and Chainz talked it out. 

People say that 2Chainz held his own in this interview. Of course he did. He's a smart guy. That's not some kind of incredible thing that he can sit down like a human being and talk about a topic. He is smart. Went to college, got good grades. So smart in fact, that he has made a career off of pretending to be stupid. His whole thing to pretend to be this barely can rap, talk about stupidness dude. So people hear and see that, and think, 'that guy is an idiot!' He's not. He knows exactly what is happening. 

And held his own against who? Nancy Grace? People look to Nancy Grace as some sort of intellectual hero? 

'Hey, do you know how far away the stars are from earth?'

"I haven't got a goddamn clue. But I know who does. The one woman on this planet who is smarter and better than just about everyone out here. The one, the only, TV's own, strange mouthed, angry haired, Nancy Grace.'

In this video she's wearing Diddy's jacket from '98, and it's hard to hold his own in this interview? Against a woman talking dumb and looking like Mase?

Weed has to be one of the easiest things to buy drug wise. In America, you ned ID to get cough medicine in a drug store. Cough medicine.

"Hey. Just this 'sniff' Nyquil."

"Do you have ID?"

"For Nyquil? I'm coughing and sneezing. Is that enough ID?"

For weed, there's probably some of it in your couch right now. Other than not locking people up for having weed, legalize it for what? People get it pretty easily. There's no WAY that people who do drugs, if that is their sole offence, should be going to jail. Doesn't make any sense. For that part, sure, legalize it. But for getting it and smoking it, it's pretty legal. You can't smoke it at a NBA game, sure, but you also can't drink out of a glass bottle there either. 

It's such a stupid argument as is. Hard to believe that in 2015 people are still talking about whether this should be legalized. Jesus Christ. There's stronger drugs pumped into the food we eat. 

'Should weed be legalized? Think about the harm done to people!"

'I just took a bite of this burrito from 7/Eleven, and I tested positive for steroids. My nuts shrank. That's not worse?"

Alcohol must just be ECSTATIC when this argument comes around every two weeks. People yelling at each other about a stupid plant while alcohol is throwing people off of highways and starting COUNTless fights at terrible bars all over the world. 

'Man, I thought today was gonna be the day that people started talking about how in the hell I'm still legal when I'm causing more domestic disputes than home wreckers, but BAM! These idiots are back to weed! WEED! I'm sold in grocery stores, and JUST made some fall onto a train track, and they're yelling about weed! Whew. I live another day.'

It doesn't make any kind of sense as an argument at all. But, we still have it. And now, Nancy Grace and 2Chainz, get to the bottom of it, in a segment that should and could have easily been a sketch on SNL.
