Alec Baldwin Versus American Airlines - And What the Hell is "Words With Friends?"


Oh!  Words with Friends is an app!  I don't use apps, they freak me out.  Too smart - shit's like Skynet.  Homey don't play Skynet.

Apparently, it is come sort of Scrabbly rip off and is very addictive.  Mystery solved.  Back to the Mystery Machine, Velma!  I'll grab the Scooby Snacks!  ;)

Shit must be pretty addictive because American Airlines is claiming that sexy, hairy beast of a superstar (and supertweeter) Alec Baldwin wouldn't turn his game off when they told him to resulting in the most epic celebrity airline confrontation since Gerard Depardieu took a piss on a plane.

The airline says that, "This passenger declined to turn off his cell phone when asked to do so at the appropriate time. The passenger ultimately stood up (with the seat belt light still on for departure) and took his phone into the plane's lavatory. He slammed the lavatory door so hard, the cockpit crew heard it and became alarmed, even with the cockpit door closed and locked.  They immediately contacted the cabin crew to check on the situation. The passenger was extremely rude to the crew, calling them inappropriate names and using offensive language. Given the facts above, the passenger was removed from the flight and denied boarding."

Baldwin tweeted, "Flight attendant on American reamed me out 4 playing WORDS W FRIENDS while we sat at the gate, not moving. #nowonderamericaairisbankrupt."  Oh snap!  Hashtag burn!  He then tweeted a short while later (after boarding a 3pm flight on American) "The flight attendants already look.....smarter."  Haha!  Zing!  #passiveaggressiveinsult

Passengers say, "...after the confrontation over his phone, Alec got up to go to the bathroom and angrily slammed the lavatory door...so loud the captain called back to flight attendants to find out what was happening."  But sources close to Alec (who may or may not have been on the plane pfft) "claim he did not slam the door, and only got up to get the flight attendant's name so he could file a complaint -- but because the fasten seat belt sign was on he was asked to leave the plane."

Hmmm, may have to smoke eat some more Scooby Snacks to solve the mystery of the Baldwin who couldn't fly...you guys gotta have an app for something like this, no?
