I think that's his point, however abrasive he chose to make it, there is some validity IMHO. Take it back to flying "bafoonery" that "your" willing to share, or lose some of the audience. This used to be my favorite thread and it feels like it's been hijacked by jack handy and his random thoughts
I see. Take it on up to the Ernest Hemingway level.
Its the TOTD thread. Nothing more.

Relax and have a snickers bar. You're not yourself when your hungry...Marsha!

Okay, how about this one a few years ago. It's my leg. There is a bit of green "clutter" on the radar but nothing too bad. We had asked for a heading and I liked where we were headed. The conversation continued like this.

Capt: "Hey do you mind coming about two degrees left?"

Me: "Two degrees, huh?"

Capt: "Yes two degrees."

Me: "Okay boss, you got it."

After less than a minute on that "new" heading, the conversation then went like this.

Capt: "Hey do you mind coming two degrees right?"

Me: "So you want me to come two degrees right, to counter the two degrees left you asked me to go less than a minute ago?"

Capt: "I guess I am picky."


He actually was a fairly nice guy, but let's just say he at least admitted his quirk!

Yawn!

Thus, why we wander off into other areas in the TOTD thread.

They worry about everything else in the universe it seems except for common courtesy and some basic safety. Because; they are the only person in the world on the roadways and they certainly cannot have any effect on anyone else around them, right?

You go you wonderful tools! I’ll listen for your 5 seconds of fame during the next traffic update.
oh come on Brosef Stalin....like this gem is any better. At least his was about aviation.
