This Week’s Top 3 Threads – September 13, 2014

1. Just Imagine the Outcry if this Thread Were Highlighted on CNN

If a major news outlet decides to do a piece based on this thread, those of you traveling in first might get even dirtier looks from the economy-class passengers as they make their way past you while you are sipping what they can only imagine is a “free” pre-departure drink that costs more than their entire ticket.
