Dang! Now you aren't even allowed to use an innocent slang expression. I mean really, who hasn't heard that expression? Are these people keeping their eyes and ears plugged everywhere they go so they won't be exposed to anything that's not strictly local? Next you'll have to keep your facial expressions in line at all times. I foresee a booming market for botox. Anyone care to go in with me on setting up botox clinics in the airports? Let's keep those facial expressions in line,folks! Of course, you'll still have to be careful. If you roll your eyes at the flight attendant you could your butt thrown off the flight.
It seems we're creating a very anxious, squeamish sort of society for ourselves where on the one hand people are terrified of offending anyone else while at the same time ignorance rules. Not sure about the botox clinics at airports, though, Willow. Perhaps passengers should be provided with masks when checking in so we all look the same and there is no confusion?
I can't believe this, Lionheart. Was it just 3 days ago that I made my snarky comment about watching your facial expressions on a plane? Check out this article I found today. http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/20298840/site/newsweek/?gt1=10252
Hmmm..seems a bit bizarre. I suppose before 9/11 people from the UK (used as it is to IRA terrorism) travelling in the US always said how casual the security measures at airports were. Perhaps now they are trying to overcompensate. Better put on your best perkiest smile next time you hop on a plane, dear Willow!
