Your candor is refreshing; is this your first time using the internet? Incidentally, your points are well made.

The HUDs used in most military aircraft don’t try and augment anything we focus on in the distance, it is more information that you can glance at without dropping your eyes down the the dash out of your sight picture. If you could grab a F-35 driver’s opinion that might be better as they have all the new Gucci stuff.

I think their use would greatly enhance the 3 most dangerous phases of flight: taxiing, takeoff and especially approach, especially at unfamiliar or difficult airfields. On a recent episode of ‘Why Planes Crash,’ they examined a crash in Columbia in near white out conditions where this technology would have prevented…

Haven’t these basically been proven effective for aviation use through use of HUD’s and the AH-64 etc?

I work at a tourist trap in Houston (it’s all about spaaace!) and while it’s essentially a museum, people treat it as if it’s DisneyWorld and they should be treated like fucking royalty. So when there is a 2 hour wait for a tour and parents ask me why and I explain the whole concept of a large amount of people wanting…

I’m pretty much onboard with most of these stories, but I don’t understand why the Subway lady just didn’t say no. Seriously, just refuse to do it. Let him stew in his car, wasting his time, and when he comes back in, just say no. I would have even been okay if she had handed him the goopy onion sauce sandwich, but…

I worked at a pub in university, and once this dude came in, ordered two well rye & diets, and then tried to walk out on his tab. I was at the tail end of a ten-hour shift during finals week and had absolutely had it - when I saw his making for the door I literally grabbed him by the collar, sat him in a chair guarded…

It’s a Spex Elf.

A Spex Elf appears!

He told her in a CYA kind of way, yes technically I told the customer it was too hot, but also noted the extra effort to heat the dish beyond what was reasonable. It was even noted that the dish couldn't be picked up without a napkin. Now if he really cared, he would've stated that to the customer. He did not. No…

Former football player, very tall, very angry. Came with someone (his assistant?) that I’m 99% sure was named Banana.

But what if you need to drive somewhere?

I could sure go for some tacos. I wonder if there is a Carl’s Jr Nearby.

I would do anything for meatloaf, but I won’t do that.

At least in my state, you will get cited if you are seen doing “anything” with your phone while driving. It seems a lot of people don’t really understand “distracted driving”. A lot of people think it means not holding your phone to your ear. Lighting a cigarette, eating a hamburger, putting on your make-up, shaving,…

I guess he didn’t care if he ever got back.
