Love read reciepts. The wife and I use it as an efficient way of saying, “I see your message, it does not need response.” I urge everyone to stop with the pointless, ‘ok’, text and just leave me on read. It’s all I need.
To the person with the new pension benefits. After taxes, try and give half to his family if you’re feeling really guilty. I don’t mean fat checks, but if any nieces or nephews, start some small college funds. For his parents, maybe start a Roth. I’m not a financial advisor, so don’t look at me. I’m just thinking through the guilt you might be feeling. If anything, I’ll come drink a beer and make more plans if you’d like.
Former member of the Admiral’s Club (american airlines) but it was a bit steep price-wise. Looking for advice from other traveler’s about my options.Currently fly 75-100K miles per year, 90% on AA. Love the lounge life, specifically the pancake machine in the Alaska Airlines lounge.
Not a credit card comment, but since we’re talking about travel, I wanted to address something from the weekend recap. You do NOT need your driver’s license to fly domestically in the USA, if you’re a US citizen. Left my ID in a pair of pants and was able to fly for a full week using just a Costco card. Technically, if you have a boarding pass you are good to go, but post 9/11 security has found another way to feign security. Granted, my week sucked because anytime I got carded at restaurants I had to do the whole explanation again.
Agreed. I’ve had multiple friends lost from this stuff. You may think you’re lucky, but it’s utter bullshit in our world today. Get an uber. No uber? Use your fucking supercomputer in your pocket and find a hotel. Priceline, Hotels.com, etc. DON’T PUT PEOPLE AT RISK YOU FUCKS.
I’d like to hear Barrett’s take on buying the Jos A Bank suit, then getting it tailored well. Looks good and *can* fit well. Anyone else got suit options they usually gravitate to that look decent?
Same. People who don’t travel forwork think I’m psycho when I try and find the literal shortest layover time possible. I need tops 10 min to get from one gate to another and take a pee. Unless LGA (but fuck that place).
And the breakfast burrito has seemingly endless amounts of stuff you can throw in it. I’m big on: green peppers and onions sauteed with a little butter, toss some sausage in the pan, then I’ll go beans if I’m feeling frisky. Roll it up, medium-hot salsa to dip onto each bite (extra points for hatch green chili salsa). Coffee, water, burrito, water, coffee, bathroom. In that order.
You’re selling something everyday, to everyone, yourself. You’re selling either positive or negative and we get to choose that each day. Great insight as always Madoff!
Goddammit people, get off your educated yet unintelligent high horse. Always looking for some special knowledge that makes you special is cool, but it’ll get your kids and your dogs contracting diseases that have basically been eradicated. Don’t call me when you’ve got an Ol’ Yeller situation and need someone to put down your dog, “naturally”.
receipts*. Moron.

The amount of money spent on a casual lunch is mind-boggling.
Is that from Girl Next Door?
We men are stupid. No worries. However, he might notice a pre-date drink accidentally left on a bathroom counter.

Not big on Dave Ramsey, but I do like Pete the Planner. Either way, financial responsibility is lit.
I, too, listen to Joe Rogan. What episode was this?

Hell of a run on Netflix. Not going anywhere around the PGP circles.
We do spicy chicken biscuits purely to spite Chick Fil A for getting rid of them. Love the home brunch.

Thoughts on breakfast burritos? Big fan.

Glad to see the Boomers finally catch a break. Generation had it real rough.
