We need a apcf version of the urban dictionary.
LBFM and LWFM can now be added to Tsquares LGBT pay.
This can go beside the definitions of Memrat and Memory Rat.
The MD88 is a noun, adjective, adverb and a verb.

Well "Tacky" I can live with. This is APC after all. I'm sure a lot of people would consider all of the over/under/side boob pictures tacky. Tacky is one thing and racist is another. I just didn't appreciate being called a racist, but this is an anonymous message board so I'm pretty sure I will still sleep very well tonight. Good night all.

I guess. But why do you "engage the association" about displacements in the future when you allegedly have some secret wide bodies ready for super quick delivery?

I just can't see how this won't result in even more Atlantic reductions for next summer resulting in a smaller peak season. Plus cutting a quarter of the already small 747 fleet makes the writing on the wall for its early demise even more obvious. RFP's for anything at this point will take years to materalize.
The big story IMO isn't just the 4 whales. Its whatever is next that we don't know about, but you know they know about.

Casual Observer pretty much makes the argument, but I'll make my own version:
As you know, LBFM stands for "Little Brown ****ing Machine."
"Hooker" isn't racist. "Lady of the night" isn't racist. "Little Brown ****ing Machine" is racist because it (a) specifies two racial characteristics [stature and skin color] and (b) pairs them with a dehumanizing term [****ing machine].
Ask yourself, would you have been equally comfortable with someone writing that captains just wanted to get to Atlanta so they could see little black Sambo?
I'm sure those who use the term mean nothing by it. They probably picked it up before they became critical thinkers, and they've probably never been challenged on it before. But they wouldn't be pilots if they weren't smart. Upon further reflection, they'll come around.
