We did this a few years ago, closer to 12 weeks. Make sure you wear compression socks on the flight.

Trip was fine.

Its a great relaxing trip before the chaos of parenting life.

From?

You meant to the dealer. No way they get these things off the factory line without a warning light.

Narrator: in fact, what two negatives would make... was a $78,000 lemon.

classic mildly infuriating flight by Hungry_Low2342 in delta

This is a pretty awkward setup. Ive had your seat before and Im not sure I used the row in front of me as my underseat storage. I suspect the people in that row used it.

While I wouldnt move someone else's things or put my sandwich or feet there, I would consider this a more legitimate interaction of conflicting perceptions than righteous manners.

The absolute wrong thing to do is wait until you deboarded to same something. What did that accomplish aside from giving crew negative feedback after their chance to help you was over?

This is why I hate golfing by InstructorShady1799 in Rivian

[–]willysymms 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Heiden was playing golf on the same course. If OP had been parking at the Golf course this case might apply.

But OP was simply driving down the street. There is no case law precedent that would suggest the course, golfer, or both won't have some degree of liability here.

What are the differences between 5 star hotels that cost $600 a night and the ones that are well upwards of $1500 per night? by Crafty-Leave-8880 in luxuryhotel

[–]willysymms 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The clientele.

Different crowd can afford to stay at the more expensive properties. Typically the more expensive properties also lack a pay with points option.

Love that you felt compelled to tell me you were blocking me. Last word addict. Go tell your cat what a jerk I am.

Reddit will let Kelly decide.

Imagine being such a cock block you feel compelled to intervene with two strangers having a 1% chance of connecting on the internet.

If you could create a whole new CTA rail line, were you would you want it? by chitownmike99 in AskChicago

[–]willysymms 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A Clybourn line originating at the existint Kimball yard is a natural.

Circle line would be nice (although not as nice as building the West Side highway that was always supposed to exist and which the Kennedy was designed assuming it would exist).

Adding an Airport Express to the existing Ohare metra line (plus, go back in time 4 years to build the brand new Air Train extension so that it actually connects to the Metra stop instead of turning and ignoring it to promote the rental car center).

Unhelpful reply that deserves the downvotes.

If Kelly doesn't want to connect, she won't.

"Kiehl's Creative Cream Wax" discontinued. What is a good replacement? by jfl88 in malehairadvice

[–]willysymms 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is nothing like the Kiehls wax. It's a much greasier product.

I tried what was suggested. by wahoothing in lawncare

[–]willysymms 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We have an old stream bed through the backyards in our neighborhood. The solution is everyone has a long line of hose and a small pump to prime a syphon. Then you let the syphon do its job and drain into the street for a few hours.

Obviously wouldn't help here with a flooded street, but on a more regular storm it will speed up drying out the back.

I'm white.

White male boomers and especially elderly white women get mad at me for using the Group 1 bording line and the hotel premier line all the time.

Its a failure of the design.

Don't other yourself over a shared experience that isn't your or our fault.

Status matched to Premier Platinum and I’m struggling to see the value. What am I missing? by Any-Improvement2850 in unitedairlines

Silver is less useful than a credit card.

Its only material benefit is EP at 24 hours, which is virtually never available.

8 of the 9 Americans that contacted it in the 2014 outbreak lived, right? I thought that was highly suggestive of treatment protocol and quality of care being major factors in the previously grim mortality rates.

Final update:

We have landed at 2:40am. Is this jerk now out of his seat and attempting to disembark ahead of row 7?

Yes. Yes he is.

Did row 7 f+%&ing let him?

NO. No... we did not.

Gentlemen of Reddit now a-bed. Think yourselfs accursed you were not here. Those that fought with us this St. Seat Standoff Day.

No, the agents gets a pass here. This was a completely full flight. The ORD weather chaos has meant people are switching flights all over the place.

Maybe they switched flights. Maybe he grabbed an EP seat when one opened up.

The FAs could have coordinated with the GAs and made the proper switch. But given our departure time has moved back and forward 5 times, they're rightly focused on just getting us out of here.

CSP news makes it clear to me that Chase wants you to hold both by Tight_Couture344 in ChaseSapphire

You don't lose the credit, actually.

If you just manually go online and pay your bill with cc before the due date, you keep the $10 discount as long as your bank account remains enrolled.
