Noise cancellation headphones help. Don't even need to play music. Cuts down the plane noise too.

Here's a tip for anyone suffering of crying babies on a plane: remember that at least it's not your baby, so you don't have to try to calm him/her down while a bunch of annoyed passengers around you are giving you looks.
If it is your baby, you're out of luck. Gotta just deal with it, I guess.
Many parents don't give a fuck tho. They bring their screaming baby to restaurants, cinemas, events etc. And everyone is supposed to just put up with it.
I remember when my brain flipped from being upset about it to feeling sorry for the parents. It was like after I graduated school and I was like, "wow, those parents can put up with so much"
Anybody that gets upset about this can buy ear plugs and eye masks and stuff. Shits dirt cheap and useful when you're traveling in general in case your hotel or friends place or whatever has issues. I get upset too but like, I don't know what trip they're going on for whatever reason... for all I know it's a death in their family and they can't leave the kid alone ... I prefer to think the best of it and prepare that way.
I mean, literally everyone's out of luck on that airplane and has to deal with it.
Everyone else can put on their ANC headphones. The parent(s) of the baby have to try and calm down the baby. That ought to be fun on an airplane. As a parent I'll tell you that the only way I'd have flown when my kid was still in the crying every time something is wrong phase would've been if there was truly no other option.
If you go on a long flight and don't bring ANC headphones, that's kind of on you.
Here's a tip for anyone feeling embarrassed by their crying baby on an airplane:
Stay the fuck at home or take a road trip, next time. Nobody else paid $400 to listen to little Jaxleigh shriek at the top of their lungs for 6 hours, and the entitlement of dragging an infant onto an airplane ought to be what actually embarrasses you.
So brave of you to call them out.
Given the reactions? Seems braver than quietly and meekly accepting the entitlement of parents.
They also paid 400$ to go on that plane asshole. They have as much right to be on that plane as you do. If the babies bother you so much you'd be the one staying at home.
But if I spend the entire flight screaming in someone's ears, I get to go to jail for it afterwards. If we start locking up the entitled parents when their children do something that would get an adult arrested, I'd be a lot less militant about children not belonging in public spaces.
Put on your headphones, turn on your active noise cancellation and chill the fuck out. Maybe get a first class ticket if you don't want to be annoyed by the poors who can't afford to fly private with their babies?
It may shock you to learn that children are people and need to travel just like other people.
It may shock you to learn that I don't give a fuck.
I don't have kids. I didn't sign up for the sacrifices that go with parenting. The mombie dragging her baby on a vacation it'll never remember did, but somehow idiots act like there's nothing wrong with parents pushing the sacrifices they signed up for onto everyone around them.
Nah, FedEx them little shits
On point with Jaxleigh. Or Reighighighilynnnn
I don't get it. Can you explain why those obviously made up names are funny?
Jaxleigh and Reighlynn are real names. Using unnessecary English language weirdness to make them "ImUnique". Its not clever.
Its just how people name kids now. Like how theres tons of Aiden and Hunters. Its the new "Bob" and "frank". For white suburbanites.
First thing I thought of
You don't need a time machine to travel forward in time.
That's not a time machine. He just sat in that contraption for 20 years.
Iron lung.
Only if orange wants to stay the same age.
He didn't get the memo that revenge is best served cold
