  • My Friend is Retarded...or am i just too obsessed?

    Ok..so i thought i'd add this in here for a good laugh.

    My friend flew ORD-MKE so she could catch a flight on midwest airlines (dont know where she went, i forgot..)

    She took American Airlines on the ORD-MKE line. She said, so i promptly asked, "Did you take American Eagle?", and she bursts out, 'They have an Airline?! I love their clothes...", i just hung up the phone....havent talked to her yet.

    Your friend isn't retarded, it's just a clash of popular culture and aviation!

    Whenever I see somebody wearing a sweater with 'American Eagle' across the front I have a chuckle myself...

      Don't laugh...my 13 year old asked the same question when he spent an afternoon at the airport with me. He said that he didn't know that American Eagle had both airlines and mall stores. Goes to show the power of advertising with teens.

        I don't really get why people are so obsessed with clothing brands. I mean WTF is so special about American Eagle, or Abercombie or Gap or whatever the hell else they sell. It's just clothes!

        Anyways, that being said. Many kids are quite ignorant. There's this girl in my history class that thought no planes are allowed to fly on the date 9/11 :rolleyes:

            Eh, most people don't know as much as we do about planes. Just expect stuff like that to happen.

              I know what you saying. I was talking about it (the airline) in school, I was like "American Eagle is a great little airline", and someone hoes "no way, American eagle isnt an airline you looser!" but i told them it was blah blah blah.

                    I agree with you...she looks pretty good.

                    I wouldn't worry about the American Eagle clothes vs. airline thing. I'm surprised I haven't heard one of my friends say it to be honest. Like Greg said, as long as she's hot, it doesn't matter.
