This is exactly how I pick up my rental car at the airport.

I wonder - if you can yourself fly, does it make you an asshole if you take up space on a commercial flight?

Must be the good doctor picking up his huge Pontiac Ballbuster.

Fly like superman? I guess it depends on how far, but no, it does not make you an asshole, assuming you paid for the ticket. There’s no scarcity of seats on a commercial flight that would prevent someone else from getting one.  Just like it doesn’t make you an asshole to take up a seat on a bus, even though you can walk.

I actually thought I was going to experience this a couple of years ago when I flew into Nashville.  Starting with the overly-cheery lady at the counter with a heavy southern accent, and continuing with me going out to the lot and seeing the parking space my car was supposed to be in was empty.  fortunately, it was because I was in the wrong lot.

I would assume that even Superman would need a change of clothes, and it would be a bitch to fly while carrying a suitcase.

I was just looking at airline tickets on AA, and yes, you probably do have to pay. I’m still waiting to see one of these on the lavatory.

I must admit, the man carrying a suitcase was actually one of the things making me think of it as flying rather than jumping. This due to the British faux educational program Look Around You.

That was hilarious. “Imhotep is invisible.” That’s what I got.

I’m not sure if showing that to your boys as part of math tutoring would help or hinder. They did two seasons; one with that style (early to mid-70s) and another with a more camp/schmaltzy late-70s/early-80s style. I’ve got the first season on DVD - Calcium, Water, Maths, Germs, Ghosts, Music, Sulfur, Music, Iron, and The Brain. All of which are demented.

This isn’t from a Hertz ad is it? They used to do those TV commercials where people would fly through the air and land in an empty car that was already driving down the road.

Yes. I came across the whole ad somewhere , but here is an other version of it.

That jingle was such an ear worm. Let Hertz put you in the driver’s seat, let Hertz take you anywhere at all, let Hertz put you in the driver’s seat, today!
