Reason #7: Talking Trash About The Other Passengers Is A Big No-No
Snape was on the plane returning to Hogwarts from playing golf with an old colleague of his overseas. He was currently writing his annual report to the school's Board of Directors when he sees something from the corner of his eyes. He turns his head and stares at another passenger sitting across the isle from him. Snape leans over to the guy sitting next to him and whispers.
"Hey, check out that guy over there with that tacky outfit. I wander what backwater town he bought it from," Snape whispers.
The guy next to him just kept minding his own business, half-listening to what Snape was saying.
Snape looks further down the isles and spots another passenger he could talk about.
"Take a look at that woman over there. I never imagined seeing anyone that looked older than Miss Minerva McGonagall," Snape says, eyebrow raised.
Again, the man next to him payed him no mind.
Snape then peeks around his seat at a large man sitting directly behind him, snoring in his sleep. It seems as though he had finished a very large helping of food before drifting off. The glob of BBQ sauce smeared around his lips was a big giveaway.
"And get a load of Mr. Hungry-Hungry Hippo right here. It's so disgusting to even look at him. He reminds me too much of that slob Vernon Dursley…" Snape continues.
The man next to him put down is newspaper and decides to listen to Snape's babble.
Snape turns and looked down the isle at a female flight attendant.
"That woman has a big zit on her face. Has she been washing her face with bacon oil?" Snape says to the man.
Then, an air-marshal whom Snape recognizes from another flight walks past the isle.
"It's that troublesome air-marshal. He's the jerk who's been apprehending me on previous flights for outrageous reasons. Talk about a code-abiding tightwad," he grumbles. "I ought to take him out right here and now so he would stop punishing me for doing what's necessary to enjoy my flights!"
The man next to him then suddenly stands up and apprehends Snape.
"What's the meaning of this?" Snape inquires.
"The man with the so-called tacky outfit is my boss, that old woman you made a crack about is my mother, the supposed fatass you claim to be disgusting is my brother, the other air-marshal is my best buddy, and that flight attendant with the zit is my girlfriend!" the man says, cuffing Snape's hands.
"What?! And who in the world are you?" Snape demands.
"I'm the Director of the English Airlines. I've heard a lot about you and your trouble-making antics on my airlines! After you talked about my family and friends, I ain't letting you ride on my planes anymore!" the main says, taking Snape to the back of the plane.
"Goddammit!" Snape growls to himself.
At this point, Snape would no longer be allowed to fly…with other passengers that it. He has one more chance to clean up his act before he is sanctioned for good.
