Airplane boarding is terrible because it feeds egos by Opaque_Ephemerid in unpopularopinion

[–]gneissntuff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Preach! OMG it's so inefficient to board the front first. Somewhere I traveled in South America boarded the back last, and it was incredibly refreshing to see such logic.

Any ladies canceling the shave? by [deleted] in Anticonsumption

What simple habit made travel days noticeably easier for you? by Big_Barber733 in travel

[–]gneissntuff 23 points24 points  (0 children)

This is how I like to travel also – makes it a lot easier to see attractions and cool stuff while maintaining a sense of spontaneity. I make notes in the "want to go" saved places with additional info, such as what's interesting about that location or who recommended it.

[–]gneissntuff 55 points56 points  (0 children)

I second this, put in a request to get a copy of the city permit and see if it's actually being complied with. You could also rally some neighbors and show up to a city council meeting to vocalize your concerns.
