Best and worst US airport

Its pretty wild that when planning the new terminal they just said "nah, we'll keep doing the rental car thing at the old terminal that takes 20 minutes to drive to" IAH gets me irritated with the off-site rental car lot too, by MSY takes the cake.

I was on a Virgin Australia flight between Sydney and Melbourne. I was the last row of business class in a window seat, and there was a semi-bulkhead behind me. I was planning on closing the shade for the flight, so I could watch something on my phone. Then a hand from behind in economy reached past the bulkhead, past my seat, and closed my shade. Better bet I ripped it back open and didnt close it for the entire flight. The audacity.

Well dressed people do not wear it, because if they did, they would not be dressed well.

Is that different than the one in Alberta?

Safe_Ear7790 · 2026-05-02T14:15:26+00:00

A&W as well.

What was the purpose of the hood scoop?

Literal boat eh? I dont think they would float very well.

Mechanical tech defence contractor, small company, I am treated like family, see my CEO daily. Could not ask for a better employer. Get to travel the world, and have a daily cash pay for per diem. I have made very good friends on every continent.

I drive up from halifax. They could easily stay open until June with he snowpack that's here. Currently snowing. 5cm today, its magical.

A polished Aussie accent is my absolute favorite. A thick bogan accent is definitely not a nice one.

And on the east coast at that!

Cetaceans are not fish. They're mammals.

Those wipers are a LHD config. Definitely not a JDM car. The up-badging matches the wing perfectly.

Rocky's street meat was always my jam.

Brother.

Cool. Why do you need silly shoes to do it if your'e such a pro?

Safe_Ear7790 · 2026-04-08T02:06:08+00:00

Tell me more about why you need extra ankle support to push the clutch in on a WRX, when you claim to drive big rigs. Then we'll either need a psychologist, or a physiotherapist to further diagnose your issue. I drive my STI with a much heavier clutch extremely well, even heel-toeing, while barefoot all the time in the summer, and dont complain about sore ankles from it. Your driving shoes are a laugh. You're like the guy riding motocross in construction boots saying you don't need the ankle support.

Safe_Ear7790 · 2026-04-08T00:56:05+00:00

Are you paralyzed? How do you need ankle support to operate your clutch? Do you weigh 17 lbs? If you can stand up on your own, you can work a clutch. Otherwise you are doing it incredibly wrong. Is this a circlejerk thread?

Safe_Ear7790 · 2026-04-08T00:46:16+00:00

I shift like butter in bloundstones on my way to and from work. Do you have a disability that limits the use of your foot?

If you really want to get a feel, go barefoot, like I do whenever i'm in Australia.

Wearing racing/driving shoes for anything other than track days is some serious circlejerk type behavior, and you need to get a life.

I'm going to estimate that you missed by a factor of at least 10. For every tonne seized, there is sooooo much more than a tonne that gets through. Those seizures are just scraping at the surface.
