WILD. I am at ORD. We land. Are still actively driving on the runway. And a whole group of people just get up and start walking towards the front.

Then a few others get up.

Everyone is like wtf, did they get special permission? Are they airport staff or marshals? No. They’re in sweats and shit.

FA finally gets on and tells them to sit down. They ignore. She says it again and threatens to have the plane stop. That’s when they get cussed out by everyone, myself included.

One pleaded “we have a tight connection” (meanwhile the plane is actively moving). Also — we landed 10min early, but I digress.

After being shamed, they sit back down. But then a mother and toddler get up again because the toddler “is about to wet his pants.” Oh well lady. Not only is it’s DANGEROUS to be walking your toddler on an active runway, the bathrooms are locked.

The world is coming undone.

See photo.

Wondering if anyone can help me avoid this if I ever get transitions lenses again (I don’t remember which brand or tech of lenses I have, whatever Warby Parker uses).

But I find them to be very impractical, which defeats the goal. When I’m out walking about, there is constantly some strip or segment that doesn’t transitions, depending on the angle of light. So I’m walking down the street and there’s a clear band through my lens because the arm of the frame is blocking the sun. Or 1/2 the lens stays clear because the sun is behind me.

Is this just a common and unavoidable experience? Is something wrong with my lenses? Should I switch to a different brand or tech?

It’s like they’re too sensitive…or don’t trigger a chain reaction across the lens. I don’t want stripes on my glasses. And if I have to take them off to angle them toward the sun, that only lasts 5min or so before zebra stripes again.
