There's no denying this has been a really emotional week in the airline industry, especially as more and more details of the Germanwings crash unfold.
While I'm not trying to downplay that, I do think a bit of laughter every once in a while is a good thing. Let me preface this by saying that the below is not totally suitable for work, so if you're easily offended by bad language or don't have the same sense of humor as a 12 year old, then please skip this post.
But there was a Reddit thread yesterday in the TIFU section ("Today I F*cked Up"), entitled "TIFU by eating gummy bears on a plane."

I've reviewed Cathay Pacific first class many times before. I've actually reviewed Cathay Pacific first class on this exact route when I took my mom on a "round" birthday trip in the summer of 2013.
