What a beautiful piece of machinery...
You took the Word’s right out of Avy’s mouth Brother. It really is.

I think back in time of childhood. I think of the Hobby Shop’s. These Beautiful Birds of Plastic hanging on an angle off the ceiling. Custom paint job,wheels turning and all. Then I became a Man and only then did I have a True Understanding of this Beauty and Pain.

I had so many thought’s,but Avy is going with this one.

I have done Hour’s of research on Boing Buying Mac Fucking Douglas. Or the Joint acquisition if you will.

Is what I do not understand is this: How is it that MacD comes in and starts Destroying Boing?

Boing was In Control as of that time period and was doing well,the BenchMark. MacD was a Failure of a Company. Otherwise they would not be in their current situation.

I for the Life of me can not understand how the Fuck these Few MacD Ex’s came in and took over? How,they were looser’s? Boing allowed these Bean Counting Fucks to destroy them? Is it that Simple?

Have you worked out where your best bet is to claim political asylum yet?
For a while now actually. I claimed asylum in @mykel basement years ago.

None of that librul distraction from you there boy.
Tryin' to mislead us with diversionary pictures.
We know you are part of the deep state conspiracy to distribute the cuck trans-juice and have the evidence to prove it.

“Untied” is currently offering $1500 vouchers for people to not board, bc the plane is overweight. Literally threatening to bot board and delay the flight unless people volunteer.

People waiting are not fucking having it. It’s a Friday before a holiday and business travelers are like “fuck you. You sold the tickets. Get us outta here.”

Goddam - I'd just negotiate a couple business class tickets to Zurich. :cool:

Also @chuffer the gate agent can go WAY higher than 1500 voucher bucks. They need manager approval of course, but if they are really that desperate go to the counter with a CRAZY offer and see if anyone bites. If you're thinking about it, maybe work in hotel and food too.

Yeah, but I can probably punch through most humans easier than a cello.

Yesterday I learned…

that Untied will sometimes hold connecting flights. Not sure if they held it for me specifically bc of how much of my employer’s money I give them every year or my incoming flight as a whole.

Either way when I got to ORD I ran to my next gate thinking that I’d just barely make it. When the gate agent saw my name, she said “Oh, you’re our hold. Would you mind waiting a few more minutes? We are waiting for around 10 more people, but if we scan your boarding pass, we have to close the door.”

I thought that that was a pretty human play on their part, but I wonder how much they fucked up all subsequent use of that gate. Regardless, it gave me time to grab a latte and bought some additional time for a handful of other stragglers.

Your tax dollars at work.


“the incident underlines just how dangerous the Red Sea corridor has become”

Fucking lol. ‘We’re all trying to find out who’s doing this!’
We shot down an Iranian airliners in the persian gulf a while back. The breakdown in procedures was appalling. There should have been several controls in place to prevent them from getting close to firing at it.
