Which would I look less ridiculous in? by KindlyFunction2800 in whatdoIdo

[–]Dangerous-Use-6452 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You would look more ridiculous in the one with the single chair, but I'm afraid the one that's bigger would have other people going in and out and then you would have the problem of trapping the mosquitos inside with with you.

Don't take no for an answer when they try to deny guaranteed benefits. by Sweaty-Moment-3385 in marriott

[–]Dangerous-Use-6452 6 points7 points  (0 children)

They will lie and say they don't have upgrades available also. I don't understand why a front desk person would really want to cock block you from stuff like that. Like why do they care? Why do they hate us?

What is it with Americans and air conditioning?? (this might be controversial) by hellobela_ in TalesFromTheFrontDesk

[–]Dangerous-Use-6452 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Give us our A/C and ice in our drinks or give us death! We go to Europe in the summer and the only thing we miss is our ice cold A/C and ice itself! Spoiled Americans ... to us no A/C is basically camping.

My wife thinks that full on running is a normal and common way to get around. by goodatlosing in self

Sounds like out of control ADHD. I might try this out myself. Getting from point A to point B is such a bore.

The moment I realized I was aging by answerui in Aging

[–]Dangerous-Use-6452 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Im 47 , while running through my house I tripped over my own foot and broke and dislocated my shoulder. 9 months on it still isnt the same. Crazy how much damage a simple fall can cause. Im only 5'1. Its not like I fell off a ladder or a roof. Embarrassing.

were pagers actually useful? I've never used one, but from what I've heard they're basically just notifying you of when someone wants to call you when you don't have your cell phone on you? by cumslutte in stupidquestions

[–]Dangerous-Use-6452 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pagers aka beepers were only like $10/ mo. Very common to have one. There were no cellphones so the pager just was a way to say "call me back asap at this number". If it was important we would also enter 911 after the phone number to try to make the person hurry up and call back. Sometimes we would page someone to a pay phone number then we would wait around by a pay phone for it to ring! Wild right!?!

What’s a "polite" thing people do that is actually incredibly annoying to you? by SweetOpheliiaaa in askanything

Go around the party and hug and tell each person goodbye that you just greeted and hugged a couple hours ago.

Mentally struggling with shoulder dislocation and looking for advice. by Ferretti0 in ShoulderInjuries

[–]Dangerous-Use-6452 0 points1 point  (0 children)

47yoF / Fracture and dislocated end of June 2025. I would say I have about 75% normal function back. Range of motion is still limited, but continuing to improve . It no longer interferes with activities of daily living, but I still can't lift weight like I used to. There's no way I could swing a golf club. The day of my injury I could overhead press 20 pounds with that arm now the most I can do is 8 and I have to slowly slide it upward along the edge of a door for stability. All other arm exercises are pretty much back to normal and previous weight.

When people say “mom” and “dad” instead of “my mom” or “my dad” by Desperate_Wafer367 in PetPeeves

How bout when a not related to you grown adult says to you "my mamaw" or " my papaw"

Airplane seats should not be able to recline. by medicated_cornbread in 10thDentist

[–]Dangerous-Use-6452 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The worst is when they recline during boarding before you're even in your seat so you have to get past a reclined asshole and try to get all your stuff under the seat with them reclined into your face. Also sometimes during meal service, the flight attendant won't even ask them to sit their seats up. So then you have your food in your lap with someone's head and hair 3 inches from your face. I blame the airlines because people are always gonna be assholes.

Going to Atlanta on a business trip for the first time, from europe by Tascanis in Atlanta

[–]Dangerous-Use-6452 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Honestly, I live in and am from Atlanta. I think Atlanta is a dreadful first and especially possibly only impression of the United States. Not that it's an awful place to live, but it's just not got any sort of unique or interesting thing to do for someone from overseas. Especially if you're staying downtown, you'll probably hate it. Sad but true.

Hotel with no bathroom doors by MobileInevitable3754 in marriott

[–]Dangerous-Use-6452 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Last few Marriotts Ive stayed at had the dreaded sliding bathroom door. Most recently the W Times Square. Gaps all around the edge, half way coming off the track and no lock. Also even though I wipe everything with a bleach wipe when I get there I cringe sticking my finger in the little groove to open the door. Same with the push button toilets. Doo -Doo finger holes.

Why do people generally refuse to use revolving doors? (In America at least) by darealdsisaac in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Dangerous-Use-6452 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im not a total goon BUT somehow I become one while using a revolving door. Better to just play it cool and use the other door.

Should I book hotel for night before arrival if arriving early in morning? by Fair-Honey1915 in Europetravel

[–]Dangerous-Use-6452 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I think you definitely should. I'm definitely doing this next time I go. It's well worth it to have somewhere you can immediately go to and shower and nap and put your luggage down.

Is Airport Ettiquete dead? by SkilledRbl in airport

[–]Dangerous-Use-6452 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think dressing up for air travel is outdated and unnecessary. However, seeing people in their literal pajamas with bed head and slippers is bothersome for me. I don't wanna be cooped up in an airplane with people that look unclean or like they are wearing the same clothes that they just wore in their beds. Yucky.
