One woman tells the harrowing tale of a transatlantic United Airlines flight that was overtaken by ants, and we're itching just thinking about it.

: “The part of me that, you know, doesn’t want to be difficult or cause a fuss is being taken over by the part of me that really doesn’t like ants on airplanes.”

Let us now picture our narrator, “middle aisle guy,” and a handful of airline employees following the ant trail with a flashlight. An airline employee tries cleaning the seats with a damp cloth but to quote Burns: “I suspect the lemony cloth hasn’t quite been our Excalibur.” Me and the middle aisle guy are standing up like we are the ant enforcers while the senior cabin crew guy rocks up, armed with... a flashlight and a wet cloth. Sure, ant-mageddon might be undone with a lemony rag, why not.Middle aisle guy is ON IT: look in the overhead bins, he urges cabin guy. Cabin guy flashes the light and says, yeah, I can't see anything. I saw PERHAPS TAKE THE BAGS OUT. He says I can't, the guy who owns them is asleep.

'The biggest nightmare Perez ever possibly imagined'Democratic lawmakers sound off on the party's presidential free-for-all — and the dilution of their own power to choose a nominee. First, you have to have a message to dilute. - Hilarious...Democrats eating themselves up from within! Status quo feeling threaten and missing their powers.
