Royalty vs Commoners
I forgot to mention a few things about my mom. The most relevant one is that she travels a lot. I mean a lot a lot, so she has the benefit of being beloved by delta. This means we were able to get into the Sky Club lounge while waiting for our flight. (We had to wait for two hours because she also overplans everything). Immediately my father and I start showing respectful deference to her elevated status, bowing in her presence, not talking directly to her, and many other things. Finally we go to the gate and get ready to board, and we find that my mom has been upgraded. The two of us have not. She laughs evilly and leaves us to suffer. We were in the second row of the groundling seats (for some reason row 19, even though there are only 5 rows of thrones) and can literally see her in her luxurious throne. Being a benevolent monarch she would occasionally visit us lowly subjects and throw some tablesscaps at our unfed bodies. Actually quite nice of her. Other than that it was an uneventful flight, no movies or anything because delta will charge you for and with everything, even fresh air http://approvedgasmasks.com/images/evo5000-mask.jpg
