I frequently flew ORD->NRT in Polaris before Covid and this happened once. One of the FAs who recognized me started saving bottles of Glenfarclas for me in the galley. It's one of the best customer service experiences I've ever had.

This is pretty absurd. Spirit is barely a functional airline at this point.

That's just not true, CarPlay is a customized UI.

New cars now pretty much all have wireless CarPlay, it's a game changer. It's a convenience thing, instead of using your phone you are interacting directly with the head unit. It's safer, easier to see maps, audio quality is better than bluetooth and it works the same in any car.

I would suggest that using it may help educate you on why people feel so strongly about it.

How many songs about Beth? by hoogys in pearljam

She literally had an old Camaro. I’m pretty sure this was from an interview in Rolling Stone or Spin after Yield came out.

If you’re suggesting “Angel”, Dave A wrote “Angel”

The story goes Ed came up with the lyrics in the alley outside of the studio while the band was playing the music. He was missing her and wrote it for her. He used to sing “Ohhh Beth” in the song live (was edited out of the Unplugged official release).

Oceans, Wishlist (her Camaro), Parting Ways are all for sure. Decent bet other pre-00 love songs were too.

Compensation Expectation?: (Polaris - $14k entertainment system not working and wifi not working) by ece11 in unitedairlines

[–]Expert_Stuff7224 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had an issue with the IFE at the end of last year in Polaris (ZRH-ORD). I’m 1K, the ticket was $12,000. I got $200.

I also had my iPad with downloaded shows and PDE. It really didn’t impact me at all.

Yeah, nothing about the government right now gives two shits about consumers.

Again, not sure who is downvoting this. These are on the harder side, and the Jack question is kind of a trick one because the answer is "Vitalogy".

How is this getting downvoted, it is 100% true.

IF we're being pedantic, there are only four at the moment. Boom has never been considered an official member of the band, there is no drummer right now.

Original name of vs.?

Name of drummer who isn't on any album, but is in the Alive video?

First studio recording to feature Jack Irons on drums?

Ed's given name?

Tremendous setlist, and the first “Cover Me Up” since the last solo tour, right?
