This feels like a bit of a reach to me. The underlying apocalyptic motifs are largely overlooked by most people I know who watch the show. Sex, violence, intrigue, clever dialogue and compelling character development are what make it enjoyable, just like every successful piece of fiction in the history of ever.

Dude, come on. It was the same "they'll never finish in time" spin with London 2012, Turin 2006, and Greece 2004.

Maybe Adam Estes should stick to writing about iGadgets while sitting in a NYC Starbucks and leave the fancy infrastructure-talk to people who know at least half of what they are trying to talking about.

I know Madonna is an "icon" but Mary's voice was on point and so much better than Madonna's.

Wow, what a charming piece of fiction. Come on, he didn't say any of that, at least not exactly how you're framing it. And trust me I'm inclined to believe you being a big fat fatty myself. My only takeaway is: is it cool now to be hungover? Like, how was that a pertinent detail? Is it the sexy, dangerous,…

That's true. But I'm not going to argue a hypothetical. I'm saying, that AS WRITTEN, it comes off like Lindy looking for a fight. Which is fine, everyone needs a hobby, but my sympathies, they are limited.

Good point. Lindy's anecdote was basically "I don't know the reason for anything, therefore fat shaming."

Remember: Everyone should have known that Lindy was hungover, and been extra nice to her as a result.

As a flight attendant, I can tell you that most people stare blankly at my hip area for a lot of reasons, and probably not to guess my pant size. You're sitting down, someone is standing right next to you, it's uncomfortable to crane your neck constantly just for some prolonged eye contact. I'm not going to even…

Here's What It's Like To Be Annoying On A Plane

Okay, wait. I'm a fat person, and I know the feeling of judgement on a plane. That said, it sounds like she was being incredibly RUDE. He probably glared at her because she was late - which many people do. And she SHOULD have said 'excuse me" and POLITELY asked him to move. And she certainly shouldn't act like a…

I don't see why you couldn't say excuse me while you were putting something in the overhead bin. It sounds like you almost held up the plane, and then you brought a big carry-on onto the plane and the overhead bins were probably already packed. As someone who rarely brings anything on the plane that requires going in…

Uh, I missed the part where this was about your weight? Didn't you charge on, anxious and frazzled, bump the guy, want him to move, not acknowledge with a polite "excuse me" or "oops, sorry," verbally confront him and instigate, and then kick his bag?

It sounds as if you were the one who was rude, even according to your OWN ACCOUNT of the confrontation. How old are you that you don't recognize that the adults here can tell that you were the one in the wrong, arriving late to a middle seat, not saying "excuse me," and then proceeding to verbally accost the man who…

Sorry Lindy, love ya to bits, but you sound super-duper immature and passive aggressive and like YOU were the one late for the plane, hungover, and getting to your seat after everyone else had sat down. I don't care if you weight 65 pounds soaking wet, all THAT is annoying.

So.....you violated someone's space, he muttered something sotto voce, then you went and wrote an angry screed about it?

giz titles be all like buzzfeed all of the sudden. smdh.

I also hate making phone calls, for absolutely no logical reason. And also done a lot of obsessive mapping when driving. But in general, the more you force yourself to do that stuff, the less it will affect you.

Some of these look comfy. I don't really need all that much room on my own.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but is the shower in the same little box with the sink and toilet?

Essentially, doesn't that mean I could take a sh#t, brush my teeth, and shower all at the same time?

TECHNOLOGY

First of all, NO ONE knows why one gets a hangover, it's complicated, with many factors, a common misconception, as mentioned in your article, is that dehydration is the cause of the headaches. This is absolutely false, just think, the last time you went out and played a sport, you get dehydrated, yet...NO headache.
