The Things Olds Do
Reading this thread brings a big smile to my face. My dad is in his early 70s, spent the first 45 years pretty damn poor but has now done very well for himself. He recently was part-owner of a nice sized business and couldn’t stand paying a yard crew to mow the office grounds so he did it himself on weekends or weeknights. Employees would show up and ask why the guy mowing the yard seemed familiar and their supervisor would say yeah, that’s one of the owners. Lately, he’s gotten an itch to travel the world and my mom doesn’t like to, so as his only son I often go with him. His favorite thing to do when boarding planes is telling the flight attendants where he’s going. He also likes to get to the airport 4 hours early.

Mission Impossible: Dead Reckoning
I liked it...as others have said Tom Cruise knows how to deliver on these action movies. I don't think it's the best of the series but certainly towards the top.

Wives and the Stupid Shit They Say/Do
I’ve seen that happen in Vegas, they obviously have a lot of flights that leave both before and after 12am. I don’t understand the “$450 penalty plus full rate.” Why didn’t you just buy three new tickets at that point? Was the $450 to get you credit back for the remaining initial ticket price?

Got my eye on you, Iglesias. Good save here. https://amp.tmz.com/2023/06/30/gabriel-iglesias-fluffy-private-jet-emergency-landing-plane-north-carolina/- Surly Horns Stampede To Tuscaloosa
That's a mistake tbh. Some of it like Dreamland is pretty cliche but there are several places that are as good or better than anywhere else.- Surly Horns Stampede To Tuscaloosa

This thread has caused me to sign up for AMC+ and I’m now going through my favorite episodes. Roger losing Lucky Strike. Merger with PPL. Pete losing Vicks after catching his FIL at the whore house. The Chevy pitch. Love this show.- Tourist Trip to Titanic Terribly Turns Tragic
- Tipping
I’ve had this happen to me too and I’ve started stashing $1 and $5 bills in the center consoles of both our vehicles…and then try like hell to remember when I park at the airport to throw at least $10-20 in small bills to cover the shuttle drivers and/or valets…at least for the first couple legs to give me time to have the hotel break a larger bill.- Tipping
My rule of thumb on those machines is: If nobody is there, no tip. If someone is there doing something for me, at any level, I ask them if they personally get the tips. If they say yes, I leave a commensurate amount depending on what I’m buying or where I’m at. Other rules of thumb: Bartenders at my regular places get tipped more. As said previously, “how quickly do you want your next beer.” It’s nice showing up on a busy Friday night and they make your drink and hand to you and leave other people puzzled who have been standing there 5 mins or more. Restaraunts/Bars where you hang out for a while? Tip based on the expected turn rates and average tabs for the table. So if you sit at a table for 3 hours and prevented the waitress from serving three separate groups in that time, don’t be a dick and tip her maybe 3x. Sometimes even giving a $20 upfront and telling them you’ll be hanging out a while can go a long way.- THE OPEN: ROYAL LIVERPOOL July 20-23, 2023
Had tickets and sold them…wife insisted we go to Portugal instead though tbh I was cool with that. Next year I’ll go to Troon for 2 days, and just not invite her to begin with.- do you ever yearn?
When Jerry runs off Dr. Sitarides from Krugers office, Kramer is there in his Butchers coat watching in a certain manner of disbelief, Kruger walks up and says "Heyyy, George...heyyy, Doc...we doing the screening in here?" And then they just roll into it. This show has more than most but this scene in particular is just as good as sitcom TV can get for me.- Tourist Trip to Titanic Terribly Turns Tragic
I would say something in between either of these versions.- Tourist Trip to Titanic Terribly Turns Tragic
The comments around the reporter who asked about recovering the bodies are pretty good. So far the one that got me the most was "get this tomato out of the tomato soup."- Tourist Trip to Titanic Terribly Turns Tragic

Exactly. Obviously these submarine people never heard of Apollo 1.- Near collision of Delta airliners
Yep, maybe even closer to 105 knots upon closer inspection of the data. V1 for that type I believe is around 120knots minimum...but can be as high as 140knots depending on conditions. - Celebrity Death Pool -- 2023
