If only they would put half the effort they put into making sure to sell each ticket for as much money as possible into ensuring delays and missed connections didn’t happen....

It’s the goldfish problem of living in America. We get a home and a car. Then we start filling them up and convince ourselves that we need bigger homes and cars starting the cycle anew.

Is it just me or is the trunk opening still excessively small? Musk said they can fix that, but apparently didn’t mean they would.

We’ve been waiting nearly 64 years for that inevitable collapse. When it finally happens, if ever, no one who cares about reunification will still be around. This combined with the extreme financial disparity of the two Koreas which would bankrupt South Korea means we will never see reunification. The countries and…

Yup, ruins everything.

Maybe it’s her soon to be ex-husband’s car.

I joked about that to a friend right before I hit publish on my first response.

United can be inconsistent on enforcement of various things in my experience, though I usually encounter it on their United Express branded flights which are are a handful of companies doing business as United. That doesn’t mean this is a case of that, and since they were traveling for free on an employee pass, you…

I wish I could give you more stars.

Lots of tweets, but pictures would say much more. If their leggings were shear enough to effectively be pantyhose/underwear as opposed to proper clothing, I would side with United. It’s unreasonable to assume that just because one of the passengers was young that her parents had her dressed properly. We really…

Yes. I have a friend who keeps promoting homeopathic vaccines because she believes they both work and are safer than real vaccines despite no trials to prove safety or effectiveness... People keep forgetting that homeopathic in the USA means it has not been proven to work or safe to any degree. If homeopathic…

In the USA, we have many reports of 911 services not getting the correct routing of calls nor the GPS data when such calls are made from cell phones. Maybe it works better in the U.K, at least where this incident occurred. I live in the US and have children, so I still have a land line for emergencies.

I saw an Iridium Flare a couple months ago. It was glorious and not remotely flat. It was amazing how you could see it curve with the horizon. Flat earthers are missing out on some many amazing things we’ve done, are doing, and will do as a species.

Budget did that to me once. They quoted a small upgrade price as if it was the entire cost. I signed, started to leave while reading the form. The price they quoted me was per day. I turned around, told them no way. They then gave me the upgrade for free because it was easier than switching me to a different car…

Together you can do it if both of you get in the right fields in the the right place at the right time and build your experience, so I’m basing these on both of you making around $200k each to get that kind of joint income eventually: Actuary, Software Engineer in select cities, Software Consultant with Select…

I find it’s mostly people who seem to be smarter on average than the general population, but still not smart enough to realize they don’t know everything. I remember one day someone I worked on a project with saying he didn’t like vaccines because he wanted his kids immune systems to get stronger. He was a smart guy…

They’re probably working on getting scientific consensus first. Then when the study comes out saying it, we’ll all wonder why we needed a study to tell us something we already knew.

My favorites are the people who shun vaccines 100% but then are pushing homeopathic vaccines.

I keep hoping they’ll come back, but my fear is that when it happens they’ll be a super badge engineered shadow of its former self.

Yes. Now Netflix needs to get onboard with aggregators, Hulu needs to allow downloads, and Hulu and Amazon need to start supporting multiple audio and subtitle tracks (like Netflix). We’re getting so close to streaming utopia though! It’s just amazing!
