Ugly floors
Ugly furniture
Strange smells
Long waits
People trying to cry discreetly without access to privacy
People who haven’t seen each other in a long time
A man occasionally touches my privates
X-ray machines
Questionable food
Paid parking
Sometimes I don’t eat for some time before I go there
I have issues…
Newspapers still exist
Free hand sanitizer
Shops with an eclectic assortment of merchandise
People in uniforms delivering bad news
Extensive regulation governing their operation
This list is longer than I thought it would be
I really only made it because I am at the airport and a sorrowful young woman is trying to be discreet about her crying three feet from me. It is breaking my heart. I texted my wife and both my children so now I’m connecting with you.
