Couple's passion on plane brings charges
In honor of Matcom and underpants, who are usually the ones to come up with fun stuff like this:

<snip>

RALEIGH (AP) — A California couple are facing federal charges after they refused to stop "overt sexual activity" during a flight to Raleigh, authorities said.

Carl Warren Persing of Lakewood, Calif., and Dawn Elizabeth Sewell of Huntington Beach, Calif., were indicted on charges of interfering with flight crew members stemming from their Sept. 15 Southwest Airlines flight from Los Angeles with a stop in Phoenix. They face a Dec. 11 trial date in U.S. District Court in Wilmington.

According to court documents, flight attendants saw Persing and Sewell kissing, embracing and "acting in a manner that made other passengers uncomfortable" while the plane was stopped in Phoenix. Persing was observed kissing Sewell near her breast and was also observed with his face pressed against Sewell's lower body.

A flight attendant asked them to stop. They obeyed initially but resumed the behavior during the flight from Phoenix to Raleigh.

When the flight attendant again requested them to stop, Persing allegedly told the flight attendant: "I'm going to give you one warning to get out of my face."

Persing and Sewell continued the verbal harassment after a flight attendant refused to serve Persing alcohol, according to court documents.

Law enforcement officials were waiting for the couple when they arrived at Raleigh-Durham International Airport.

5. Oh no, english people are the most repressed in the world
English people would just pretend not to hear a couple publicly making love.

Lighting up in a non-smoking section, on the other hand, oooo...

:hug:
