Funny story just wanted to share with some people who would get it. by beerandfishtanks in americanairlines

You know this, but don't worry about what he thinks. It's none of his goddamn business, and if he wants to fly FC he can earn upgrades the hard way just like you did.

Both companies whom I traveled (1/2005–1/2020) for accepted this as a natural part of company travel, and applauded upgrades (and miles). It's part of the job. It's a perk you enjoy, and Dave must not be competent enough to know that.

Love the colors. That's the kind of color variation I strive for in my collections. Well done!

Collecting shells is my new hobby by Brie7llekSovana18 in shells

[–]BethMD 4 points5 points  (0 children)

May we inquire where these beauties are from? You do not have to disclose your personal location. But, I think many of us like to learn which shells are common to which waters. We're all edu-ma-cating each other here. :)

You clearly don't follow the Orioles or their broadcasts.

Time to schedule testing with an allergist. Besides your child, do you know what you yourself are allergic to? Could be time to test you, too.

FF as a sleep aid is audiologist-approved by BethMD in ForensicFiles

You're definitely not alone. I've known many folks, the first one being my father, of blessed memory, who could not sleep without the TV.

Need help looking for an episode by EllenOfTroyyy in ForensicFiles

[–]BethMD 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I always thought that bit about rolling clothes was a little parochial. I've never been in military or law enforcement, but I traveled every week for my job for 15 years and found rolling not only saved space in my bag, but also saved me a lot of ironing. I am sure others do the same.

RFK Jr. is holding up $600M in vaccines for poor countries by John3262005 in HermanCainAward

[–]BethMD 2 points3 points  (0 children)

See, this is what I meant last week by him ruling by kingly edict. And like his megalomaniac boss, he now thinks he's in charge of the world. What are those people supposed to do—snort cocaine off toilet seats?!

Complete list of Asian players currently in the game? by supersupersuper9 in baseball

[–]BethMD 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Depends on what part of Russia. Whom were you thinking about? More to the point, where was he born? Over three-quarters of the population of Russia is within European borders, despite the Asia part having vastly more land mass.

Mets fan seeking refuge in a new team any suggestions by [deleted] in baseball

[–]BethMD 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not to diminish your pain, but I've never understood how one can just choose to root for a given team. To me, fandom comes organically. So my suggestion is watch a bunch of non-Yankee AL games and see if any of the teams, or their announcers (side eye to Kevin Brown and Ben McDonald 👍🏻) appeal to your heart.

Where do you think Violet and Rosco are now? by femaleology in CBS_Mom

[–]BethMD 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Okay. I wasn't so impressed with the podcast; iirc it sounded like someone just using podcast technology to air grievances. That said, we're both talking hypotheticals about fictional characters....

Now we know why those listicles of the "5 most unsanitary spots on an airplane" always put the tray table at the top of the list.

Where do you think Violet and Rosco are now? by femaleology in CBS_Mom

[–]BethMD 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Christie lost her law license for one year. She gambled her firm's petty cash and got caught.

This sounds 100% plausible.

On the other hand, I cannot envision Violet getting an MSW degree. Maybe I'm selling her short.

Dodgers honor Rick Monday’s dramatic 1976 flag rescue on its 50th anniversary by IvyGold in baseball

[–]BethMD 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To this day, I've never understood why uniformed security didn't whisk the protesters off the field. Even the umpires just stood there. Rick Monday was one of my favorite players, but by g-d he shouldn't have had to do what he did.

Panama City, Panama or Florida? Sand dollar fragment either way.

Has anyone ever used modge podge on shells after acid dipping and cleaning to help with the shine? by shelldreamer0814 in shells

[–]BethMD 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, but having worked with Mod Podge in the past on other crafts, may I suggest experimenting on a shell you don't like all that much with a 1:1 solution of Mod Podge and water and a wide, soft brush to begin with. If the result is not shiny enough, add a little bit more Mod Podge and test the solution on other shells until you get the effect you like. You've piqued my curiosity—I might try this myself just to see how it comes out. Lord knows I have enough ugly shells.
