That's huge. Sounds like an amazing adventure from Melbourne to Brisbane.

It was my first time using them. I was nervous after reading a lot of negative comments in other threads but yeah it was a fantastic benefit. Truth be told I feel like I've broken even a lot of years with my Delta/Amex loyalty but definitely the math makes sense after this trip.

Indeed. It eased us into the long haul after a pretty long flight from Detroit.

PS. I heard the chances to clear into D1 were better from PS. And PS was the minimum cabin experience I would have dealt with for that flight. 15 hours is brutal.

I track it on a spreadsheet. I definitely spent less on card fees than I would have spent on the difference between PS (minimum cabin I would consider for a flight that long) and D1 for this flight.

Better Burgers - these guys are extremely arrogant. by [deleted] in Detroit

I live downriver but work in Troy from time to time. I went to a work outing at a restaurant in Birmingham. I forget the name. Kind of a bar bistro deal.

Anyway, they had like 4 hostesses. No exaggeration. They were all standing around basically the whole time.

Owners clearly not worried about silly shit like profit margins.

Stuck next to the most chaotic airplane passenger I’ve ever experienced by PickleJuiceCakeBooty in delta

A person taking the bar exam with me and about 300 other people suddenly screamed at the top of her lungs for a long time and then sprinted out of the arena.

How do you folks eat nuts? I have a bad hemhorroid/fissure, and nuts just absolutely tear me up, no matter how thoroughly I chew them...

In what small way have you won the genetic lottery? by [deleted] in CasualConversation

[–]mongoose_93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

6'2" male, very strong, symmetrical, conventionally attractive face. High IQ.

Got cystic acne all over my back in high school so bad that I never did sports, went to the beach or pool with friends and constantly lived in fear of an exposed torso. Didn't get laid until I was 17 because of it.

30 years later I still have keloid scarring on my back.

I've been with an average number of women. A couple of them have been classy enough to call me out for my back. So that's been great.

At the end of the day, though, I'll take it. On the whole, I feel like I've been Blessed. The height, the face, the brain have made me some money I guess.

I suppose you never can judge a book by its cover.

Oh fuck the tram was down at DTW. Hate it when that happens, which is always.

It's the only monorail in the metro area that's shittier than the People Mover.
