They are also an invasive species in the US that does crazy amounts of damage each year. They definitely need to be food.

6'4" Here, and I never complain about someone lowering their seat. To me, the button is on their seat, thus the decision over who’s call it is has been made. What I will say is, don’t ask me to stop “kicking,” the seat. My legs physically press into your back the entire flight, even with the seat raised. I have to…

So much easier to start with, “hey, I’ve only got a minute to talk, I’m just about to [insert any verb phrase].” Who are they to decide what I should or shouldn’t be doing next? There’s just no reason to lie about it. “Hey, I’ve only got a minute to talk, I was just about to fire up Netflix/do some reading/whatever.”

Once again my cunning strategy of having no real money pays off.

I don’t think you’ll catch me patching bike tires any time soon, but we’ve gotten big ass truck tires for tubing down the river in summer, and they can get a little pricey, plus it doesn’t matter if they end up the tiniest bit deformed, so the patch kits work for that.

What insane person is pricing these?

I feel like my wife would believe me that this was an accident in a second, because she knows if I really wanted to hide something from her, which I really have no desire to do, I’m not dumb enough to skip incognito mode then not clear the history. I’d be proven innocent by the level of ineptitude of the crime.

A few random forum sites I visit for about, music, instruments, bands etc will have soft porn links. Not horrifying craziness, but nothing you could claim you were reading for the articles.

I’ve never used it to mean buying a loaf of bread, but I think I’ve used it, and I know I’ve heard other people in my life use it to mean trading favors rather than something tangible, though not always shadily.

Wait, what? A nail into a stud can hold a poster just fine on its own, and if you go grab some wire for the back of the poster you only need one. You could easily do 6 posters per wall. 

huh, can’t speak to the Trac, but I’ve used Personnas and Feathers and I haven’t had that experience. They do well over a year in the drawer without any change.

If I’m picturing your razor correctly, you can just snap the double blades in half. They are meant to snap cleanly in the paper so it’s safe and easy. It’s what I do for my shavette. Yeah, the doubles are everywhere and cheap. 

Unless I’m picturing the razor you are using wrong, you can just snap them in half. They’re meant to break cleanly before removing them from the paper, and the doubles are cheaper.

Good call, that’s not exactly the one I have, but it looks great.

Bonus lifehack: after your . . . lets say fifth try with one of the disposables, and you have the motion down, switch over to an old school metal safety razor.

“In Vino Veritas, In Cervesio Felicitas”

This is all well and good to take a look at these policies, but like the article says, if you get told by a stewardess to go back to your seat, you are completely at their mercy. Maybe you can get some satisfaction with a complaint after the flight, but up there the crew is king, so the “rule,” really makes little…

I grew up with a bullying sibling and the toll adds up. I’ve forgiven my parents, mostly, but I haven’t seen that sibling in almost a decade, and I won’t be seeing him again in my lifetime. I skip all family functions he’s at, and won’t sit through conversations involving him.
