The UPS guy over in ICN...taking a bus from the hotel to the Itaewon area.
On a 15 min ride, this guy must have let everybody in the back of the bus know that he was a Capt on this, that and the other at least 30 times on such a short ride. Not sure if he was trying to impress his co-pilots or just annoy everyone on the bus.
When we got off the bus we made sure we went the opposite direction as "that guy".

Based on his past posts, I'm pretty sure he's being facetious. Trolling, stirring the pot, if you will.

Noooooo!! Food Babe's good looking and so so soooooooo stupid. She is going to make some man very, very unhappy one day.


When your body is in the air, at a seriously high altitude, your body under goes some serious pressure. Just think about it – Airplanes thrive in places we don’t. You are traveling in a pressurized cabin, and when your body is pressurized, it gets really compressed!
There is a lot of stuff that is "almost" right and her advice isn't too far off the mark but wow, she is the poster-child for mandatory high school education. :rolleyes:

Ha! Ya think? It sounded like he threw a squirrel into a room full of beagles.

Wait, is that sarcasm? If so......

but sometimes "sarcasm" isn't really that funny, especially over an internet forum. Hope you understand.

Jerks who let "Fluffy" out of the pet carrier and let them wander in terminals (either on a leash or not) without paying any attention to numerous announcements to the contrary. I can't stand self-entitled a-holes who think rules are for everyone but them. It's even worse when it's middle-aged couples with children. Thanks for teaching them to do whatever they want, wherever they want. :rolleyes: We all know that if "Fluffy" pees or craps they'll just walk away like nothing happened to let someone either a) clean it up or b) slip or fall because of it.

There was a report on tv last month I think it was 20/20...companies on the Internet are able to give (sell) certificates, id's and vests that make them appear to be service dogs under the guise of emotional support pets. They can pretty much get any animal on so people can take their pets into the cabin without a cage. And it's all legal.

Hey... what's the difference with the pilot puppy mills?

Context, my friend. Sarcasm about ditzy media-hounding girls is often funny and benign. "Sarcasm" about dead doctor-pilots (or equally, pro pilots in my instructive retort) is often not funny. But even that can be funny among close friends or colleagues. But needs appropriate context.

On a quasi-anonymous internet forum its hard to judge, and I just didn't catch the "humor" in your post. Happens a bit, and move on. Nothing personal. :(


Before either of us become TOTD let's remember Flight 598.
