Your life and your quest end here.


I really wanted a sandwich just now (salami, cheese and capsicum), but I discovered the bread was mouldy, so I used two crumpets instead. It wasn't terrible, but I can't recommend it.

I was going to make a turkey sandwich, but we didn't have enough turkey left, so I had to settle for a cheese sandwich. It was rough, but I managed.

I had coffee, a vegetable omelet, home fries, and rye toast with butter. I'm really full now, considering my breakfast usually consists of a piece of fruit and a cigarette.

On the way back from the restaurant, a homeless guy with an enormous red beard asked my boyfriend and I for spare change to pay for his vasectomy, so his kids didn't end up begging from our kids. It made me laugh, so I gave him a dollar. He told us he was going to hang out in front of McDonald's next, and showed us his sign that said he was McStarvin'.

I used to read reddit and 4chan and look at webcomics like questionable content, CAD and oglaf. I also watched an anime once. Now I have seen the light and spend eight hours a day with my curtains closed pressing the user control panel button to see what my favourite posters are talking about.

I used to play slightly more video games than I do now. I also spent more time actually chatting with friends on Steam instead of sullenly ignoring them until either one of us wants to play games together.

They are all pretty mediocre. Long Beach is the easiest as the start/end of a journey, but you can't go to many places because nobody flies there except JetBlue. San Francisco is decent enough until weather happens which of course is constantly. I had a decent layover at O'Hare recently but it apparently goes to poo poo as soon as a thunderstorm happens. Detroit was alright I guess. LAX is hard to summarize because it's like six or seven airports stuck right next to each other but most of them are old. Charles de Gaulle Airport was actually not bad.

Yes, I hate that, and poo poo, I wonder what she'll say that'll piss off the numerous hordes this time. I wonder if she's realized more people are watching her now, after the poem and the Daily Mail thing.

I've seen her get short-tempered with people on Twitter, etc asking annoying questions or saying things like "If I knew you in real life, we would be BFFs!" Her response tweet to that was "I hate to tell you this, but this is real life." So it's possible she'll hurt some poor widdle redditor's feelings.

Compared to any Mediterranean country Frankfurt is a well oiled, efficient wunderland of air travel.

Edit;
Actually every airport isn't bad if you've been there before, speak a common language, and know how to cut in line or shove your way through a crowd. Even the unholy citadel known as Madrid Barajas can be overcome if you have the experience of being there at least once before and aren't retarded.

Delays are a different story and no single airport is at fault for their lovely weather or striking baggage handlers.

I don't know, all I remember was sleeping overnight in the airport on the ground on the way back from Belize because one member of our group had trouble getting back in the country, but things were so disorganized and our flight was so delayed that we didn't miss our connection back home

Yeah man customs can be tough in Miami. One time I filled out the customs form in pencil instead of pen and the agent was so fuckin pissed at me because I had to write it in pen. So I had to stand there like a jackass and rewrite the entire thing with his pen. Then he ran my name through the watch list and apparently I have a really common hispanic name so it took forever due to how many hits he saw while searching. Granted that whole endeavor was mostly my fault so I wasn't too bothered.

Other times customs just looked at me, said "do you have any ham or sausage?" and always gave me a sad look when I told them I wasn't sneaking anything out of Spain.

Admittedly it's been over a decade since having a layover here but it was just awful then and I suspect it hasn't improved.
