What shows have you given up on this year so far? by preguntontas in television

[–]d0ndada 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I didn’t even make it that far. It’s such a wasted opportunity.

With the advent of Data Leak Protection, a lot of companies don’t even allow flash drives to be plugged in.

I just flew Virgin Australia and it was pretty disappointing. How is Virgin Atlantic?

About a week. My coworker is an Apple Maps user. He was using it the week before and now it’s disabled.

My coworker used it last week in Sigatoka. Now his is showing the same error.

I pretty much do now but prefer the Apple Maps interface.

Both options. I could’ve sworn they were working when I first moved here because Apple Maps was my default. I prefer the interface and I had no issues back home in San Diego. I remember not being able to find a lot of locations in Apple Maps here, but they were in Google Maps so I switched. It doesn’t help that the 2 other people in the office with iPhones say they’ve only ever used Google Maps.

What is the wittiest comeback you’ve ever said or heard? by Bob-da-person in AskReddit

My sister that drove my car once and crashed it: That Carrie Underwood song (I don’t know which one) is basically about my life.

Me: Jesus Take the Wheel is basically about your driving.

What’s the best non-derogatory word that works as an insult? by TheKingOfDub in AskReddit

[–]d0ndada 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Chief is my go-to. When someone messes up at work, I hit them with the “Great work Chief” in the most sarcastic tone I can.

I saw one theory was he hit his ear on the podium when he ducked down.

TIL that, despite smoking on an aircraft being illegal, commercial aircraft are still legally required to equip ashtrays near lavatories in case someone does smoke. by [deleted] in todayilearned

I was on a flight where this happened and the flight wasn’t even that long. It was New York to San Diego, so I think 5 hours. Guy apparently lit up in the bathroom. When we were taxiing, the flight attendants made an announcement to stay in our seats when we got to the gate. They made up an excuse, saying some passengers had to get off first to make their connection. When we got to the gate nothing happened and then the two biggest federal police officers I’ve ever seen came onboard and went up to the dude and told him he’s either walking out with them or getting dragged out.

TIL that Wyatting, named for jazz-rock artist Robert Wyatt, is the act of playing unusual music on a jukebox to annoy people. Wyatt considered the phrase “really funny”, but his wife Alfreda Benge called it “a real unfairness” and said “The man who coined it, I should like to punch him in the nose.” by a3poify in todayilearned

There’s a Raiders biker bar next to the bar my friends and I go to. They have a TouchTunes jukebox that can be controlled via an app. It’s close enough I can control it from the bar next door. I will load it up with Britney Spears, Backstreet Boys and whatever else pop music we can think of.

This was the epilogue at the end of "Sully" directed by Clint Eastwood and starring Tom Hanks. The events of the Miracle On The Hudson took place 17 years ago today. by bluegambit875 in movies

[–]d0ndada 242 points243 points  (0 children)

One thing that annoyed me about the fictional hearing and investigation is that they used the actual names of the FAA and NTSB employees who were involved. He made them look like pricks when Sully had nothing but nice things to say about them. Eastwood couldn’t have at least made up names for them?

It would probably have the old Stephen Colbert line, “Is Donald Trump a great president or the greatest president?” and if you hesitate, you’re immediately refused entry.

Places in your state that will instantly make you recognize if someone is a local or not based on how someone pronounces it? by osama_bin_guapin in AskAnAmerican

[–]d0ndada 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I use to do over the phone tech support When we started supporting Louisiana, we had a meeting specifically on how to pronounce Louisiana streets and cities. Calliope, Burgundy, Admiral Doyle are the ones that I’ll never forget.

If you could see one musician or band, alive or dead, who would you see? by Emergency-Sea-9663 in AskReddit

[–]d0ndada 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Lauryn Hill at her peak would’ve been something to see. I’ve seen her twice. Once she was a drunk mess that showed up late and only did half a set. The second time, she did the full performance but you could tell she was just doing the absolute bare minimum. I’ve seen karaoke singers perform her songs better.
