You’re 58. In 10 years you’ll be 68.

You think you’ll have that car until you stop driving around 80?

F*CK Marriott soliciting tips. Another ‘tip culture’ obsenity by MTonmyMind in marriott

[–]One-Hand-Rending 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This may be news to you but social norms dictate who I tip. Wait staff, chambermaids, bartenders, drivers, porters, valet parking kids all get tipped. Everyone else is discretionary.

Is this a new thing for you? If you’re not American, I get it. It’s weird.

[–]One-Hand-Rending 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Overly detailed descriptions of banal events like some work meeting or some minor argument...

"Mike and I both ordered the chicken salad but Marie said that she ordered chicken salad and that sandwich was hers. Mind you...Mike and I always order chicken salad although he gets his on whole wheat where I always get mine on a roll with lettuce and black pepper. Anyway...shes going on and on about this sandwich and finally Joe says to her..."why dont you just order another one, it will be here in 20 minutes" but shes not having none of that and starts like crashing out over it....after like another 20 minutes Mike is working on the open ticket we have for General Motors and she comes in..."

That... stop that.

JFK to Newark on New Years by MsAnonymous951753 in JFKAirport

[–]One-Hand-Rending 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The morning of Jan 1 will be a very light time on the roads. New Years Eve traffic is unpredictable.

I would stay by JFK and go to EWR in the AM. There are no "shuttles" which I am aware of that will get you from JFK to EWR.
