DISCLAIMER – I am not planning on smashing the window on an airplane.

    Stupid people panic and cry

    I’m not sure I’d call it STUPID to panic when something extremely scary happens to you…

      I mean, I wouldn’t exactly call it smart either. Panic is pretty useless in situations where flight is not an option (in the flight or fight sense … but it makes for a good pun too).

        I wouldn’t call it smart either but to look down on someone who freaks out when an airplane window blows out seems a bit much lol

          No. Wrong.

          It is clear and simple in that order of events that we are describing here: the ones who panic and the ones who don’t. And so I describe them with clear and simple words. That other guy who always looks for some grey areas in between and then makes lots of buts and long winding arguments, he is just not there. No time for him, no place for him.

          He maybe comes afterwards, when all is over and I don’t care anymore, and that’s what I do with you now.

            Oh ok you’re right it is binary. I now understand that if you are stupid if you aren’t 100% calm during a very stressful situation. Thank you for the explanation.
