The two-tone seats look a little funny from the front, but from the back, they look like The Stig.

I’ve never had the pleasure of sitting up there, but I have flown in similar pod seats with an ottoman on the upper deck of a 747, and that was pretty cool. Very private.

Current 747s have about 5,000 sq ft of interior space; this early model is likely closer to 4,000 sq ft. That’s enormous for an aircraft, but for an event space, it’s a little cozy. You’re not exactly competing with banquet halls with a venue of that size. Maybe if they also included an outdoor area under the wings,

With the cockpit upstairs, that left plenty of room up front for seating — usually business class or first class seats. It even has a pretty pronounced taper as you get closer to the nose.

The criteria for “best” here is “the one that gives us the biggest kickback for shilling their product.”

Personally, if I’m buying a car, I am going to hold out for exactly what I want. If that means placing an order or making one dealer swap inventory with another farther away, so be it. It’ll take a lot longer (I waited nearly 8 months for my current car to be delivered), but if I have to compromise and accept

It’s kind of amazing that these sorts of things still seem to happen all the time. One would think that if someone is coming up with a new name for their band / company / restaurant / whatever, they’d at least do a quick check to make sure that the proposed name isn’t 1) already in use by somebody else and 2) code for

A map of favorite foods by state that’s actually based on sales data and not just Google search results?? Nice!

I like it! The continuity of design inside and out is pleasing.

This is the automotive equivalent to an old ketchup packet that was emptied then very carefully cleaned, meticulously smoothed out, and saved for the future. Both were meant to be disposable but were somehow inexplicably saved.

I moved from the east coast to the west and noticed the different shape of the butter sticks. At first, I assumed that the difference was because I bought cheap store brand butter out west and they were trying to screw me by making the sticks shorter. I may have even added extra to a recipe because I didn’t really

A word of warning on bulkhead seats: They are excellent for those with long legs due to the usual extra legroom and the lack of a seat ahead of you. However, the lack of that forward seat means that there is nowhere to mount a tray table besides the fold-out kind in the armrest, which may slightly reduce the seat

...and people are not happy about it!

That plan sounds like an express ticket to an audit.

Is the pupper in the lead photo included? Because that looks like a very good dog.

I’m not usually a stuff-in-my-ice-cream type of guy, but some of these sound pretty good, so I’d be open to trying them.

My biggest issue with the ad was the outright lie about everything working, confirmed to be a lie because the very next statement listed the things that weren’t working.
