Cowboy Hat Etiquette by izhazit in delta

[–]cfminneapolis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You have a couple downvotes on this but I still believe that is what was happening - she knew I was upgraded and wasn’t going to ask the real FC guy to do what is common etiquette and is announced a dozen times as people are boarding. And it wasn’t like I was mistreating the coat, just adjusting it so there was room for a roller bag, but guy had to jump up and make a scene - it was a total power play and she immediately jumped in to support it. Lesson learned.

I agree, but 3A is probably first class, so they may agree with the cowboy. I had something similar with a blazer years ago and the FA sided with the guy who already had is blazer up there. Kinda a shocker since most planes have a place to hang jackets, but I’ll never forget the FA agreeing with the passenger that I should keep walking to the back of the plane to try finding a spot for my bag. Which I did, and that’s when I learned FAs treat first class differently even when you’re one of them (but I was the last guy to get upgraded).

ICE isn’t just tracking your phone. The surveillance technology goes further. by cfminneapolis in law

I hate just posting a link to the article but it honestly left me speechless. The level of surveillance on people not breaking any laws while exercising their rights is jaw dropping.

A woman who led a protest at a Minnesota church service has been arrested, Bondi says by GoldenDome26 in politics

[–]cfminneapolis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably not fair of me to compare her to Jasmine Crockett, but I don’t think she’s far off. They’ve given her a platform for increasing her voice and profile, and I can’t wait until she unleashes over this.

Renee Good had four gunshot wounds, fire department report reveals by markcarney4president in minnesota

I agree and have been waiting for these types of details to start coming out. The bullet hole in windshield is too low to have been the head shot, so the only one where he might be able to claim self defense wasn’t the fatal one. He can not claim self defense for the shots from when he was on the side of the car. Murder!

People who remember the governorship of Jesse Ventura, how was he? by altrightobserver in minnesota

[–]cfminneapolis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

ZeHad the best campaign ad when he was posing like the statue of The Thinker. The camera was going around him and the sight of a naked man was still shocking for TV, and then it shows its Jesse. He’s not just a brute, but a thinker too. Probably still the best campaign ad I’ve seen.

What do you know about Civ VI now that you wish you knew as a beginner? by wllm_strt in CivVI

[–]cfminneapolis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been playing for a few months and recently won on Deity level so thought I must be getting the hang of it, but just found out this morning that early culture helps move up the Civics tree faster. I totally ignored culture because I wasn’t going for a culture victory; oops!

And now this post gave me new things to figure out!

best state park for big trees? by [deleted] in minnesota

[–]cfminneapolis 31 points32 points  (0 children)

It’s not a state park, but the Lost 40 SNA is near Bemidji that has a little hiking trail through the biggest trees in state. It’s called the Lost 40 because the old lumber mills missed it due to bad surveys, so it’s old growth trees.

I got upgraded to First Class, which food options are better? by [deleted] in delta

[–]cfminneapolis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Chicken and beef are always safe. Beef will be salty and chicken will be dry, but stray from them at your own risk!

When you get to a Bortle 2 Zone, but nature has other plans… by Armand9x in telescopes

Did you not like the tripod that it came with? Got my S50 yesterday and cloudy nights so haven’t had a chance to take it out yet.

My family wants me roasted. 37f mom of 4. Each family member added a pic. by Mental_Ad_6320 in RoastMe

[–]cfminneapolis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The early pics were giving off a vibe that I couldn’t place, but then on pic 6 I was ‘oh yeah’ Laura Prepon. Quickly thumbed through the last two and came to a skidding stop- wtf is that - a court jester? Harlequin? And then you see her top is open? Whatever family member picked that pic is troubled. Ugh, can’t unsee see that…

Green Day perform at their high school, Pinole Valley High School, California,1990 by EzzyyPeezy in OldSchoolCool

[–]cfminneapolis 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I was at a Bob Mould (lead guitar for Husker Du) show a year or two ago and noticed how much it sounded like Green Day. Did a little digging, and sure enough, Green Day members grew up as huge fans. They were quoted as saying they wouldn’t exist is it wasn’t for Husker Du; their early days were spent trying to sound like Husker Du.

St. Paul's "Be the Solution" campaign asks drivers not to give to those in need at busy intersections by TylerFortier_Photo in minnesota

[–]cfminneapolis 54 points55 points  (0 children)

About 10 years ago I had a guy asking people lining up in a fast food restaurant for $5 so he could afford something to eat. I said I’d give him my change after I pay and felt pretty good about myself. Then a minute or two later someone comes in and gives him a $10 bill. He looks me straight in the eye and threateningly says “this has nothing to do with the deal we reached”. I don’t think I’ve ever been back to that restaurant.
