NUMBER ONE, MICHAEL MYERS. I MEAN, PRETTY SELF EXPLANATORY. THIS NIGGA DO NOT GIVE A FUCK. NUMBER TWO IS PENNYWISE. UH, I WOULDN'T TRUST SITTING NEXT TO HIM. I'M PRETTY SURE HIS PRIMARY TARGET IS KIDS, BUT I STILL WOULDN'T SIT NEXT TO HIM. NUMBER FIVE IS LEATHERFACE. AGAIN, THIS NIGGA DON'T GIVE A FUCK. HE HAS A CHAINSAW. NO. 10 IS JASON. THIS NIGGA DEFINITELY DON'T GIVE A FUCK. I MEAN, HE'S PRETTY MUCH UNSTOPPABLE. SAME WITH MICHAEL MYERS THOUGH. NO. 9 IS ANNABELLE. I'VE NEVER SEEN ANNABELLE. PRETTY SURE SHE'S JUST A FEMALE CHUCKY. I WOULDN'T TRUST SITTING NEXT TO HER. NO. 7 IS CHUCKY. I MEAN, PEOPLE GONNA SAY HE'S A DOLL, BUT HE'S JUST NOT ANY DOLL. I STILL WOULDN'T TRUST SITTING NEXT TO HIM. NUMBER SIX, I'M PRETTY SURE THAT'S THE NUN FROM THE CONJURING. UH, YEAH, NOT SITTING NEXT TO HER. NOW LET'S TALK ABOUT THE ONES I WOULD SIT NEXT TO. NUMBER THREE IS GHOSTFACE. I MEAN, HE'LL PROBABLY JUST KEEP ME ENTERTAINED. HE'LL JUST ASK ME, WHAT'S YOUR FAVOURITE SCARY MOVIE? WE'LL JUST PROBABLY JUST TALK ABOUT HORROR MOVIE CHARACTERS.

I KNOW IT'S A 10-HOUR FLIGHT, SO EVENTUALLY YOU MIGHT TRY TO FALL ASLEEP, BUT IF YOU'RE SITTING NEXT TO HIM, JUST TRY TO STAY AWAKE. HE WON'T KILL YOU UNLESS YOU'RE FALLING ASLEEP. HE ONLY KILLS YOU IN YOUR DREAMS AND NIGHTMARES. AND NUMBER EIGHT, I FORGOT HER NAME, BUT SHE PLAYED IN THAT MOVIE, I FORGOT WHAT IT WAS CALLED. BUT THIS ONE IS PROBABLY THE EASIEST ONE BECAUSE THERE'S NO WAY FOR ME TO HAVE IT. JUST DON'T WASH THAT TAPE. AS LONG AS YOU DON'T WASH THAT TAPE, SHE WON'T LAY A FINGER ON YOU.

Transcript

You have a 10-hour flight. Who are you sitting next to? I got three options as to who I'm sitting next to and who I can easily survive. Let's talk about the ones that we are not sitting next to. Number one, Michael Myers. I mean, pretty self explanatory. This nigga do not give a fuck. Number two is Pennywise. Uh, I wouldn't trust sitting next to him. I'm pretty sure his primary target is kids, but I still wouldn't sit next to him. Number five is Leatherface. Again, this nigga don't give a fuck, he has a chainsaw. Number 10 is Jason. This nigga definitely don't give a fuck. I mean, he's pretty much unstoppable. Same with Michael Myers though. No. 9 is Annabelle. I've never seen Annabelle. Pretty sure she's just a female Chucky. I wouldn't trust sitting next to her. No. 7 is Chucky. I mean, people gonna say he's a doll, but he's just not any doll. I still wouldn't trust sitting next to him. Number six, I'm pretty sure that's the Nun from the Conjuring. Uh, yeah, not sitting next to her. Now let's talk about the ones I would sit next to. Number three is Ghostface. I mean, he'll probably just keep me entertained. He'll just ask me, what's your favourite scary movie? We'll just probably just talk about horror movie characters. As long as I don't mess up, he won't kill me. Number four is Freddy Krueger. Just don't fall asleep on a plane. I know it's a 10-hour flight, so eventually you might try to fall asleep, but if you're sitting next to him, just try to stay awake. He won't kill you unless you're falling asleep. He only kills you in your dreams and nightmares. And number eight, I forgot her name, but she played in that movie, I forgot what it was called. But this one is probably the easiest one because there's no way for me to have it. Just don't wash that tape. As long as you don't wash that tape, she won't lay a finger on you. In fact, she probably won't even be on a plane. She'll just be invisible. But yeah, I think I'll be safe next to Ghostface, Freddy Krueger and this scary little girl right here. Let me know what y'all think about this down below. Who would y'all be sitting next to on a 10-hour flight?
