Technology. It really is amazing in so many ways. It improves our quality of life, makes education more accessible, and even saves lives. However, it also makes idiotic things very, very public. Incidents that may have been brushed under the rug years ago are now slapped onto YouTube for the whole world to laugh/cry/rage at, and usually remain until not a person in the nation is unaware of your dumb move. Like say the woman who fell in the fountain. Or the guy that got high and raped and murdered a goat. Or this thing.

And now we have the Southwest pilot whose homophobic, misogynistic rant is getting more and more infamous. As you can hear in the video below, our pilot has a bit of an issue with the quality of flight attendants he’s been seeing, and wanted to share his distaste for the “gays, grannies, and grandes*” with his co-pilot in the privacy of his own cockpit. Unfortunately for him, he must have elbowed the “on” switch on his dashboard, because his rant was broadcast to every other plane in the vicinity, as well as air traffic control. All of the air crews in the area became sorely aware that the pilot thought all the women in Houston were ugly, that he couldn’t get laid, and that (boo-f***in-hoo) he never gets to go out with his co-workers.

This incident happened back in March, and when Southwest heard of the incident, they apparently suspended the pilot without pay indefinitely. Apparently “indefinitely” means “a couple months,” though, because the pilot is about to be reinstated after a little “diversity training.”

I don’t need to be sharing my own personal opinion on this blog, so I’ll just say that the word I feel most fitting for this situation is eight letters long and rhymes with PULLSPIT.

*The worst part of this story is that any human who genuinely feels this way about his fellow man is probably a neanderthal-brained dimwit, which means he probably brainstormed that string of alliterative offenses the night while brushing his teeth to the tune of Limp Bizkit in the bathroom mirror. Idiot.
