People Only Rage About Beating Airlines Out of Money

from Price Of Poison | The Tim Dillon Show #379 · #379

3 min

Tim mocks people who brag about negotiating cheaper flight-change fees as the most boring possible human achievement, tying it back to nobody caring about being poisoned.

In this bit5 moments
  • Tim on American ideology: work hard and do the right thing, and eventually you'll earn the privilege to do the wrong thing, like poisoning people.
  • People get genuinely upset about airline flight change fees, not about poisoned food and water.
  • The least interesting people in the world brag constantly about beating an airline out of money, like saving $425 on a flight change.
  • Tim's observation: people measure life success by beating corporations out of small amounts—finding an extra mozzarella stick and calling it a win.
  • A guy at Tim's house spent time explaining to his friend's little brother how he got a $500 flight change down to $75, showing the app and everything.
