Intrusive Thoughts: 11 Hour Flight Edition

By Sarah Parmet



Renee Rapp is amazing. 


The way the plane really takes off is due to pressure differences. EW NOT PHYSICS!


That is the tiniest portion of butter chicken I’ve ever seen.  


I shouldn’t be watching Bottoms with subtitles on.   


Will the baby stop crying??


Why can’t I be like my best friend who has been asleep for the last four hours?


I have to pee again? I’ve gone pee five times already, but she’s only gone twice. Does she even drink water? 


Renee Rapp lives in LA just like me.


I can hear the baby crying through my Airpods Max.


I am simultaneously cold and hot. 


AHHHH MY HIPS ARE IN VAST AMOUNTS OF PAIN. That Advil better not be expired!  


Renee Rapp is seven years older than me :(


Ooh cool we’re over the ocean right by Greenland ...and the temperature is -80 F.  The plane better not crash. If we have to use the inflatable slide we’re all going to freeze to death.  


I am not throwing away my shot! 


Shit I knocked over the armrest! Screw sleeping in the aisle seat! I mean it’s only fair I have the aisle seat….it’s not like I sleep anyways. 


How is the baby still crying???? 


Ouchie my tum tum….  


Would my parents approve of me and Renee Rapp’s hypothetical relationship (when I’m no longer underage)?


I’m out of tissues! Digs through best friend’s seat compartment 


WHO JUST OPENED THE WINDOW?! 


Turbulence!   


Good morning bestie..... oh what yes these are my intrusive thoughts on the Notes app on my phone don’t judge ok? Oh…..you’re falling asleep again? Ok then.


DON’T TURN ON THE LIGHTS. DON’T DO IT.  


Hmmmm I wonder what’s for breakfast?


AHH MY EYES!!


How would I even meet Renee Rapp? I’d have to get a job in the film/music industry. Maybe I should go to Berklee.  


Actually, first I should hit the gym. Need to work on my shoulders.
