Derrick Stroup: A Joke About Flying

0:00Like, I fly all the time. I hate flying. But when you're, when you have my accent and you tell people you hate to fly, they assume you do not know how airplanes work. They go, oh, they're so safe. Yeah, bye-bye. And I go, that's not what I'm talking about. I'm talking about flying with you, Diane. That's what I'm talking about. Like, here's the thing lately. I think middle-seat people have lost their minds. I don't know who lied to middle-seat people, but you have no arm rest, okay? We share our arm rest out of the goodness of our heart, but you have no, in the energy that these middle-seat people are barely on the flight, okay? They're the only seat in every row that if they don't show up, we celebrate. We take a picture of their empty seat and we put it on Instagram and we go, what a Tuesday, man. You ever seen a middle-seat person pull out a laptop? It's the craziest

1:01thing I've ever seen. It's so hard for me not to look at them and go, hey, nobody's in an office waiting on a middle-seat email, okay? If anybody cared about your email, you'd be in the out, big dog. I mean, it's hard for me. I just want to reach over and just close the laptop and go, you need to get your kindle out, okay? You need to read a story. And all this confidence comes from me being an aisle-seat guy. I'm the captain of my row. It is my row. And some of y'all go, how's that work? I can break it down for you. You want to go to the bathroom. You're going to have to go through your boy first. Yeah, you want to snack? I'll hand you a biscuit off when I get to it. Because the flood attendant's going to give me snacks to give to my team when I'm ready. When the plane lands, what do we do, aisle seats? We stand up. You already know. Middle-in-windows seats, they hate it. Because they look like doblins under there.

2:06There's nowhere to go. There's nowhere to go. They bang their head. They bang their head. I go, get back in there. You'll get off this plane when all the aisles do. Watch Derek's troop nostalgic, only on Netflix.
