There's little that's more frustrating than a delayed or canceled flight.

But it's something millions of travelers have been experiencing world wide over the last several months.


Passengers on a recent Southwest Airlines flight to Cabo, Mexico nearly missed out on arriving at the popular vacation destination when their pilot threatened to return to the gate due to the behavior of one passenger.

A passenger was apparently AirDropping nude pictures to their fellow travelers.

Teighlor Marsalis was among those on board the flight. They recorded the captain scolding the mystery "sexter" in a video subsequently posted to her TikTok account, where she goes by the handle @teighmars.

Accompanied by the caption "@robloxsouthwestair takes airdropping nudes very seriously", the 16-second video has gone on to receive over 2.2 million views.

With "Southwest Airlines" in the overlay, only the tops of the heads of Marsalis' fellow passengers could be seen in the brief video.

All of the passengers were intently listening to the captain over the loudspeaker, warning them if this behavior continued, he wasn't afraid to return to the gate.

"So here's the deal, if this continues while we're on the ground, I'm going to have to pull back to the gate, everybody's going to have to get off, we're going to have to get security involved, and vacation is going to be ruined."
"So folks, whatever that AirDrop thing is, quit sending naked pictures, let's get yourselves to Cabo."

Several viewers noted the pilot sounded like a frustrated parent, threatening to turn the car around because of their unruly children.

Others pointed out AirDropping nude pictures was no laughing matter.

Sexting might be fun, but consent is key. And there were likely children on the flight.

One person shared they were once the unlucky recipient of a nude AirDrop on a flight.

Indeed, bizarre as it might seem, this was not the first reported case of illicit AirDrops on a plane.

Nor was it even the first such occurrence to result in a viral video on TikTok.

"Cyber flashing" has been a growing problem worldwide over the last several years, and not only on airplanes.

In 2018, New York City Council members attempted to make "cyber flashing" a crime punishable by a fine of up to $1,000 or even a year in jail. Democratic New York state Senator James Skoufis is working on legislation which would make cyber flashing illegal.

Skoufis has already gained considerable support for his efforts, including from The National Organization for Women, The National Women's Political Caucus as well as the popular dating app Bumble.

Democratic Rep. Perfectly Calls Out Hypocrisy Of Trump's 'Department Of War' Rebrand

California Democratic Representative Sara Jacobs called out the hypocrisy of President Donald Trump's "Department of War" rebrand after news outlets reported that it's merely a "secondary title" for the Department of Defense (DOD) and not a legal name change.

The department is only being given alternate labels, which is a symbolic rebrand more than anything substantive. The official name will remain the same unless Congress passes a law to change it.

The Italian journalist drew backlash after explicitly excluding Edebiri from a question about the #MeToo and Black Lives Matter movements—two movements rooted in women’s voices and racial justice, a.k.a. exactly the communities Edebiri belongs to.

A Truly Disturbing Drawing Of Epstein With Young Girls From His 'Birthday Book' Is Sparking Outrage

Social media users have reacted with outrage after the House Oversight Committee released a drawing of the late financier, pedophile, and sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein handing young girls candy next to a drawing of himself being massaged by several women.

The panel released a redacted copy of a “birthday book” given to Epstein for his 50th birthday. The more than 230-page volume contains crude sexual jokes, references to sex with underage girls, and a note allegedly from President Donald Trump that includes the outline of a nude woman and alludes to a “wonderful secret” the two purportedly shared.
