I hope no one minds if I share this anecdote, regarding what I do, when I am seated on an airliner, next to a passenger who insists on yacking away with a “90-mile-a-minute-mouth,” and won’t let you look at your pornographic magazines, in peace.
I reach into my carrion case, and pull out a copy of THE HOLY BIBLE and say something similar to, “Oh, I am so glad you will talk to me, because I always jump at any opportunity to share my personal relationship with my holy Lord and Savior, Jesus the Christ.”
I then begin to read aloud to that person, from various sections, especially quoting the story of Lott (and describing how he had sex with his daughters, after they got him drunk, so they would get pregnant by him).
Usually, the person seated next to me excuses himself/herself to go to the restroom, and I don’t see them, for the remainder of the flight, Praise Gawd.
