Unless an exit row isn’t a bulkhead. You can still put things under the seat in front of an exit row, it just has to be ALL THE WAY under that seat, leaving the walkway from aisle to exit clear in case of emergency need.

At one time, Penn Station was gorgeous. Then it was torn down, and the abomination otherwise known as Madison Square Garden was built above it.

Regarding Dulles Airport, hopefully the new Silver Line will take it off that list when it opens next year after an eternity of planning and construction. Dulles has always been a good option for Virginians who live west of DC — just not so much for anybody else.

Counterpoint: no it’s not! It depends entirely on the type of tea - its origins, quality, as well as the strength of the brew etc. - but when paired with proper strong black tea (most of your Assams, Ceylons, Kenyas and Nepals, but even some Darjeelings), it serves to enhance the maltiness rather than hide any sort of …

Agreed, and the staff deserved so much better than having the rest of the GMG Union turn their backs on them. Kotaku, Gizmodo and Deadspin all banded together, but when Splinter got shutdown, all we heard were crickets...not even a mention of it anywhere else on kinja.

Shutting down the only dedicated politics website in your portfolio right before the 2020 election, one of the most consequential of our lifetime, kicks into high gear. Essentially shutting down the second-most highly trafficked website in your portfolio because one out of every twenty five posts rankles you. I’m not…

This reminds of when that Amber Guyger trial in which a comedian said of that situation, “Well, we know that Christianity worked on somebody and it wasn’t on the white folks”

Agreed. Trump is an idiot who hurts people through his blundering and greed, but Mitch seems to have sat down and carefully planned out how best to erode democracy and build systems of exploitation.

As Chris Rock said “there are black people who aren’t even born yet who won’t vote for him.”

I realize that Trump is the poster boy for the Dunning Kruger Effect, so yes, he probably did think that he would get a rousing ovation - hell, he probably thought the bullpen was going to call and ask him to come pitchy a couple innings - but is everyone else around him so brainwashed they honestly weren’t expecting…

The room full of men thing seems plausible, but I also have no trouble believing that a (probably Mormon) mother of 5 could obliviously believe that all women are super thrilled about being pregnant as much as possible, even someone who had recently had a miscarriage would be eager to give it another go because God’s…

People are grossed out by rats, but they actually make wonderful pets.

• Prevailing belief in medical culture that black people feel less pain than other demographics.
  

For the same reason men get promoted after they have quadruple bypass or whatever problem they have due to piss poor health.

Whenever some shit like this happens, I just want one follow-up question:

I am guessing that the threat of having Charles’ face on everyone’s money will prompt a number of Commonwealth countries to finally lean towards becoming republics.

there is no legal requirement for stairs to be available to move you UP floors, only DOWN to exit safely in the event of a fire or such. A lot of times (in public buildings that are large enough to warrant the use of an elevator/escalator) those emergency stairs are at locations in corners/exterior walls so that they…

Stay to the right and shut the fuck up. It’s not a fucking amusement park ride. Some of us have trains to catch and places to be.

“the real staircases that are available nearby 95% of the time” <- not in my experience. 

It takes about another whole hopper full of water to clean the vinegar taste out of a pod coffee maker. At least, it does mine. That first cup after running only one cycle between was gross.
