Vlogging Superstar Falls Victim To Baggage Scale Crouch Of Shame

We like former Defamer Molly McAleer lots, so we were horrified to hear that our internet crush missed a recent flight because of one passenger's baggage scale crouch of shame. Molls reports:

I finally arrived in Boston at 11-something pm after missing my morning flight because 10 extra minutes of sleep, 15 minutes of late cab drivers and 20 minutes of an inconsiderate Persian woman unpacking and repacking her suitcases in front of me at the check-in point when she learned that there was a baggage fee. Apparently the bitch lives under a rock cause I showed up with 1 bag and about 200 bucks in cash prepared for the worst.

We'd never accuse any of our savvy readers of not knowing about checked bag charges, but the holidays are nothing if not an opportunity for amateurs to gunk up the works. So spread the word to your less-traveled friends before they fly home for Christmas: Carry on only, or be ready to pay up.
