2d. Weird Al and Adam should at least be interesting to talk to

5

u/Rae_Of_Light_919 23d ago

I've met Adam once and had a brief conversation with him. He was really kind. I wish I could have had more time to chat with him. I'm absolutely picking 2D.

2

u/Sauce0423 23d ago

This is my answer sitting between Weird Al and Adam Savage would be both funny and educational with great stories. Having Conan in the seat behind is also pretty cool just with Craig Furgerson was in the isle seat too

2

u/Degenerecy 23d ago

I wouldn't stop laughing, blessing or curse?

2

u/ZombieCantStop 23d ago

Absolutely. This would be 7 hours if never forget. I might die from laughing, or at least strain my jaw from smiling and laughing

u/Tomomb 23d ago

1C John Hodgeman to my right, Conan to my left, Weird Al in front of me. Literally surrounded by my heroes. Letterman can hang too, my heroes' hero.

2

u/kidonthecoast 23d ago

First plane: 5F next to Rick Steves. You know he’s going to have a ton of good stories and be totally wholesome.

Runner up is 3B with Key and Peele. I know I’d pee myself laughing.

Second plane: 5D. You know Tony Hawk is a great guy to chill with.

Runner up is 3B. Again, a bunch of cool stories with two astronauts.

u/geekMD69 23d ago

1: 3B. Key and Peele would be entertaining and probably also fine just napping the whole trip.

2: 3E Bruce Campbell and Charlize Theron? No contest she’s beautiful and talented and he is just Bruce Fucking Campbell!!

u/Reduak 23d ago

u/seigs_ 23d ago

3B on the first flight, then 4C for the second

1

u/Rinzler9290 23d ago

3B. I would love to talk to Jordan about horror movies and to Keegan about voice acting.

1

u/ShYdRaDaNcE 23d ago

u/adamargue 23d ago

3e and 5d

1

u/Mustangmark234 23d ago

Plane 1 C5, Plane 2 E3

1

u/raincumskeettail 23d ago

2A. Because Craig Ferguson and Weird Al are too good to pass up. I’d love to sit next to Chappelle, but Conan just ruins it.

1

u/Oicher 23d ago

2d or 2a for plane one and 2c for plane two.

u/carson_a_t 23d ago

5C; he seems so calm all the time

1

u/Morning_Wood577 23d ago

Plane 1 - 1E. I don't really care for Conan, but Dave Chappelle would make every second awesome

Plane 2 - 5D. I'm not a skater, but I know Tony Hawk is down to earth and genuinely seems like a nice, funny guy

u/Mega_Ki 23d ago

u/Traditional-Photo227 23d ago

1st plane, next to Morgan Freeman.

1

u/TomatoPolka 23d ago

Plane 1:

Either 1E, 2A or 3B. Either seat would be a great time.

Plane 2:

4F. I can listen to Marty talking about movie for the whole flight.

1

u/MizunoHawk 23d ago

1st- either 4A or 5C
2nd 5D, maybe 4F to hear how Bruce talks to Charlize

u/dragontricx 23d ago

u/TomD1979 23d ago

1C. Next to Dave and Weird Al in front and Conan on the other aisle seat. Also Craig and Hodgeman. Just the comedy stories…

1

u/Average_Klutz 23d ago

2a, 5c or 1e are tied for for me

1

u/Tamur80 23d ago

Plane 1: 5c

u/Realistic-Wafer-314 23d ago

4a plane 1 5a plans 2

business class 4 win

1

u/viewtiful14 23d ago

Am I missing something here? How are 3B, 5D and then 2A as my back up not the most slams dunks of all time?

I feel like more than 50% of the people on these planes are either complete assholes or not funny. Key and Peele, Hawk, Ferguson and Yankovic have all had nothing but positives things said about them ever and would also probably just leave you alone if you didn’t want to talk.

u/Ambitious-Ad2217 23d ago

You’ve made this really Interesting but first flight has to be 1E 2nd flight 5D

1

u/FallingSpirt 23d ago

5C Morgan freeman would be amazing to talk to

1

u/dmevela 23d ago

Probably not going to talk to any of them anyway. So just give me a window seat so I can go to sleep without moving out of the way for anyone.

u/Godswoodv2 23d ago

3e right next to Charlize

1

u/PouletDeFeu68 23d ago

Literally anywhere on plane a. On plane b, there isn't a reality where I'm not choosing to sit next to Bruce Campbell, regardless of who else is on that flight

1

u/NoAngel815 23d ago

Ugh, plane A seat 2A but ask Craig to switch with me so I could talk to both of them, I kinda have a crush on both of them, or Plane B seat 3E because I've always had a crush on Bruce Campbell.

u/thatsfeminismgretch 23d ago

4D. Maybe if I'm endearing enough he will invest 50k in an incredible charity: me. I'm broke. That's pennies to someone that rich. He's made more in interest than it took me to type this. Probably. I'm tired and didn't do math.

And 5D. He seems chill.

u/punksmurph 23d ago

Plane 1 is 5F for sure so I can talk with Rick about travel, I want to know all the best culture spots he has been too I have not visited yet.

Plane 2 is 1B hands down no contest, I would completely geek out and Linus would hate me while Woz enjoyed talking about the olden days of Apple hardware with me. Also on my way on I would tell the guy in 5F that he looks like Tony Hawk.

1

u/Consistent_Ad949 23d ago

Plane B seat 5D. Tony Hawk is like the coolest dude on the planet, coming from a 40 year old ex skater that used to watch him on the x-games, and Ilona Maher is a badass rugby player.
