If you’re planning on flying this summer, there’s a new travel trend you might want to try — but be careful, as many people think it’s pretty strange.
Not only does this latest trend have a strange name, but it’s also a pretty odd way to fly, considering how technology has kept us occupied on planes for years.
Whether you love listening to the soothing sounds of the ocean through your earphones or passing the time by watching action-packed movies, it’s no surprise that technology is saving people from utter boredom in the air.
But if you’re “live-dogging” your flight, you’ll just have to wait and see.
Although the name sounds a bit explicit, it’s actually not as grotesque as you might think right now.
Now, it takes a lot of patience to not pick up and read a book or pamphlet, so it might be easier to try short-haul flights instead of long-haul ones at first.

But Instagrammer @trashcanpaul seems to have become a pro at it since posting a photo to the platform boasting about his new personal record of having completed a seven-hour flight live.
He captioned the photo, “Survived a 7 hour flight (a new personal record).”
“No headphones, no movies, no water, nothing. I can’t believe it.”
“The power of my mind knows no limits.”
If you decide to eat raw foods during your flight, you don’t have to take off your clothes. The important thing is to refuse them, considering them a form of entertainment and enjoying a tranquil experience.
But he was soon outdone as his fellow runners began posting their best times in the comments section.
One person wrote: “My record is 12.5 hours raw on an airplane.”
Another wrote: “I was saddled with RAW from LA to Tokyo and I’ve never been the same since. I was a different person when I got off the plane.”
That means you have to reject all forms of entertainment. (Getty Stock Image)
Other social media users were baffled by the idea, with one user writing: “Someone who just sits with their eyes open for hours without headphones or a book or a movie is not human to me.”
Another added: “People who despise planes are a different breed.”
Though popular these days, the phrase appears to have been coined in 2022. “The guy sitting next to me on the plane was really sassy the whole flight,” one user tweeted.
“He took a 10-hour flight to Europe in jeans, with no headphones, no book, no neck pillow, and literally just a paper cup of coffee with no lid. Is he OK?”
Either way, as long as you don’t reach for anything to entertain yourself, everything seems okay.
For many years, the term was used to describe unprotected sex, but now it has come to simply mean someone who is not ready for the act.
So as long as you don’t approach this whole thing with an Urban Dictionary “fresh dog” mentality, you’ll be fine.
