he’s not even that big! he wears huge shorts, but thats it!
:| don’t tell me we cant even trust our own pants!!

Listen to his smodcast, the SouthWest employees seriously sound fucking evil.

Kevin Smith = not that big. Not morbidly obese, and HE FIT IN THE FUCKING SEAT. SW airlines was insulting and removed him unnecessarily, topping it off with an apology that barely scratches half-assed.

I’ve seen many overweight people on the same plane with me and there was no fuss about it. There’s probably something more to it than this one-sided story that we don’t know about.

Yeah, this is a real smart move, airline executives! Any well-conceived business plan for surviving the economic downturn we’re in should include diverse strategies for pissing off the people who spend their money to provide YOUR income!  Stuff like:
-bumping them from flights they’ve already paid for
-losing and breaking their things
-serving them shitty food
-not making parents do anything to curb their kids’ out-of-control behavior during flights
-hiring the meanest and dumbest people you can find as ticket agents and customer “service” staff And last but not least, treating handicapped or special-needs passengers like revenue-sucking entitlement whores that don’t deserve to be on your planes. It shows real creativity and forward thinking for you to add overweight people to the list of “undesirable” types which should be humiliated, insulted and discouraged from flying. What’s next? No black people? No one over 55? No gays and lesbians? No one below a certain level of income? I’m sure it won’t take long for you to come up with a whole slew of new policies to “improve” your airline’s efficiency and profitability. Go, Southwest, GO!!! YEAH!!!

His argument(and one that I tend to believe, as I’m an overweight guy who is probably about as thick as he is but still can fly) is that he DID fit. The armrests came down and he could still buckle his safety belt and they STILL kicked him off. Then their lame-ass apology didn’t leave any room for any possibility that he might actually be telling the truth. It was “you’re fat, we gave you $100 in SWA bucks as though you’d ever want to fly with us again, and if you ever try to use it, we’ll just kick you off again for being too fat”(I’m paraphrasing, but it truly was a lame apology.

Everyone’s jumping to conclusions! Has anyone considered whether he’s too annoying to fly?

Maybe he was a security risk simply because anything that he touches tanks these days. I just dont get it, I know a few people that love Kevin Smith… but I havent seen him make a decent movie since Chasing Amy. And yes, Dogma sucked too.

Kevin Smith is probably a good 10 pounds lighter than most of you trolls.

I don’t want a fat person sitting next to me on a plane. They should have to buy two seats. No offense, but I don’t like it when someones muffin top protrudes over the arm rest and presses up against my body.

Maybe the crew just really hated Jersey Girl.

HAVE YOU GUYS SEEN HIM LATELY? HE IS FUCKING BIG, I AM WITH SW ON THIS ONE…

Wow, big shot who usually purchases two seats but this time only one. From Yahoo: Southwest Airlines apologized to the director via Twitter, and blogged a longer statement on Sunday afternoon — in which it pointed out that Smith usually purchases two seats every time he travels.

If he is such a big shot, why is he flying Southwest?

You are fat Kevin. You wear shorts so big they look like a dress. Have some humility and learn to control your urges.
