Cowboy boots in the Cockpit

[Uncle Bunkle]

I've created a sticker which I'll be passing along to all who want one for free. I've printed up several hundred.
It will simply say, with black letters on a white background (oval sticker)"
"No cowboy boots in the cockpit."

Post a reply here if you'd like one.

If you saw me this past week in DFW or AUS and saw my sticker, let me know that too. It was a good conversation starter in that neck of the woods.

Just curious. I don't wear cowboy boots. I think they're stupid looking. But why so mad others enjoy sporting them? You protest too much. Did your mom wear them to your PTA meetings? Bad memories of the boys rankling you?

BTW, I enjoy you reviving threads.. you get got me every time when i see the topic.

You have me mixed up with the wrong age group...try adding a few decades to that.

You'd like them if they've been dug out of the closet after gathering dust for 15 years, though, right?

SWA Bubba been 'bunkied' a few times sounds like! :beer:

 

[Uncle Bunkle]

SWA Bubba wouldn't be caught dead with 1 one of my stickers.

So after 1 week on the line, here's a few tidbits about my sticker:

1. I actually ran into a guy in LGA with my sticker on his flight case, first time I've seen it on somebody else. Pretty cool.
2. I offered it to about 6 others this week, only 1 took it. Oh well.
3. I was asked if I could make up a sticker saying "Aisle Donkey stay away". That one cracked me up.

 

[Freebrd]

yeah like the aisle donkey one

Well this weekend I'm handing out my stickers in ORD and IND. All are welcome to take as many as you wish.

The regional lifer has to work weekends???? And a holiday to boot! Get it....boot.

Have fun handing out your stickers sucker.

 

[Freebrd]

Too easy, "bunkied" into a cat fight now, gheesh.

 

[Uncle Bunkle]

It's too easy.

 

[Uncle Bunkle]

Although I do plan to hand out stickers on my trips next month.

 

[Freebrd]

Bring some to the ATL if you're ever this way willy.

 

[Uncle Bunkle]

An update for everyone following my sticker exploits:
Handed out 30 stickers.
1 pilot gave me a dirty look (a newb 40-ish FO from Eagle) and wouldn't even acknowledge it.
3 FA's have taken the sticker (which I think is awesome, hope to see some on the carts)
About 3 or 4 guys actually wearing cowboy boots on my trips. since last month.

I don't get it, is there some hidden scab meaning or something? What's the problem with guys wearing boots? And why would you care enough to print up stickers about it?

Nothing like that.

It's just one of Bunkle's random stupid things. He's the same guy who makes all the necro-posts on 10-15 year old threads, and acts like it's new. He's up to 40 or 50 or so times doing that. If anyone actually replies to it (whether or not they "fall for it," thinking it's current), you can then count on Freebird to chime in with "Bunkled!!" We're still trying to figure if they're the same guy, or just some sort of weird man-crush.

There's no actual stickers, no actual scab meaning, or actual anything else, for that matter.

I'm pretty sure aside from about 3 or 4 real people on here, everyone else is General Lee.

 

[whymeworry?]

I'm curious.... why do you effing care?

Really, man (if you are one), get a life outside aviation. This is a job, no more, no less. I don't care what any of my FOs wear. To each his own. As long as their competent in the cockpit and can fly an airplane.

THIS! SWA 'trying' to find out who is who, too friggin funny. :laugh:

Uhhh,... I think he was talking about you and Bunkle there, Skippy.

And I don't think anyone really gives a crap who you are; I know that -I- don't. I was just mentioning how you always and predictably tag on to his stupid necro-posts--like clockwork--that you're likely either the same guy trying too hard to be funny, or that YOU are the one with weird obsession.

[Freebrd]

Nice try tool. But we appreciate your "we're trying to figure out if they're the same guy".....so who is "we"? You and your imaginary lover? Too funny tool.

 

[Uncle Bunkle]

Update:
I have no stickers left as I handed the rest out to various gate agents across the system.
If you see me in the terminal say hello and I'll see if I have a sticker for you (I carry a few in my bag).
