I’ve been places in the states where even airports won’t give you a beer before noon. Damn Puritans, ruining things for 250 years.
I think you’re legally allowed to kick people in the crotch in that scenario.
Yes, violence is great at convincing people to give you alcohol!
Violence is the one true power, from which all other power is derived.
This trick only works at airports.
Try it!
I was in an airport in NY from 5am-6am, and they didn’t serve alcohol during that hour. It was awful, and I had to wait!
Yeah SLC is one of these. Worst layover ever.
ATL is the best layover. You can go bar hopping across the terminals using the train.
They even ruined those muskets with the bell thingies on the end of the barrel. Haven’t seen one of those in centuries.
I like arriving 6 hours early for a flight. I have time to drink beer and take a nap on the ground.
That’s basic airport etiquette.
Arrives on time. Flight is delayed for five hours. Welp hitting the bar I guess.
Same
It’s almost like if people understand why someone is doing something, they don’t judge them! Maybe people should just stop judging people if they don’t understand them!
I’m judging you for saying this.
I’m judging you for judging them.
hey :(
I am judging you for being sad
What are you, my therapist?
Yes, now quit stopping your medications because you feel better after taking them. That’s their point.

It’s almost like
I hate when people write this
It’s almost like it turns any normal statement of fact into a sarcastic, condescending, passive-aggressive jibe for literally no reason at all
it’s almost like literally the entire point is to make it sound sarcastic, and if you want to be even more snide you can add a “huh, who coulda thunk?” at the end.
who coulda thunk?
Why just repeat what i said but even more sarcastic? Pretty sure I already made that point.
r/yourjokebutworse
Oh there’s often plenty of reason.
If ya say so buddy
Almost.
I am sorry.
It’s alright
I told my brain to stop judging, but for some reason it still judges!
It’s almost that way? What would it take for it to actually be that way?
What is this, a festival starter pack?
Or LAN party
Seen all of this at every college I’ve been to
We tolorate so much bullshit to get on a plane. Here in the US, we allow our buttholes to be fingered and our balls to be fondled for our “safety”
What airports are you going to??
(Seriously, asking for a friend)
do an image search for “tsa fail” and turn safe-search off
Really? Which airports so I can avoid them? There are so many!
meanwhile europeans hopping on international sleeper trains (small hotels on wheels) without even having to show up an hour before departure
we allow our buttholes to be fingered and our balls to be fondled for our “safety”
what??
do an image search for “TSA fail” with safe-search off
Imo the real damage to society was done not by terrorists but by the politicians who enacted counter terrorist laws
Who funded those groups? who put them up to what they did?
I’ll give you a hint, the people that did those things created a problem to sell a solution.
You mean it’s NOT common practice to do all these things at Wal-Mart??

Video game releases
Having complete strangers photograph your underwear and then feel it for good measure. Espresso martini. Saying “I flew in from St Louis and BOY ARE MY ARMS TIRED”.
Drinking tomato juice (more related to the airplane). WTF! never seen it in vending machines, offered on tap, in fast food joints …
But 9/10 times someone in my hearing range orders a tomato juice to chillax and drink that sweet thick pseudo-ketchup.
Tomato juice has a considerable amount of sodium in it. I wonder if there’s some sort of correlation?
It is a travesty you can’t buy it in more places. I typically ask for a virgin Bloody Mary instead.
I order. I use it to mix in my airplane bottle of vodka and the others you mention are probably doing it as well.

Are airports as a whole liminal spaces?
An airport fits the definition pretty well
unless you’re a staff member
Yes.
But one can be a bit more specific and think of their long corridors as liminal spaces, but the cafés and stores in them as not. I flu a few times per year out of the same airport, and typically wait in the same café for over one hour. I use this time to rest a bit before getting on the flight and eat something, and it doesn’t feel liminal at all.
Yes. Especially the bits that connect multiple concourses on foot.
Be me, keep a toothbrush and toothpaste at work so I can brush my teeth after lunch in the employee restroom.
Me too! Every morning after coffee. I work from home now, but I did this every day.
I heard from dentists it was better to do it before eating or drinking anything, as you’ve coated your mouth in the good shit to protect it. But I guess it’s splitting hairs.
I guess consistency is more important for overall dental health.
Hope you’re waiting around 15 minutes after finishing that coffee and having a drink/rinse with water before you brush, otherwise you risk damaging your enamel
A lot of Japan does this, actually.
- Drinking at 6am - Christmas Day.
- Sleeping on floor - After night out smashed.
- Brushing teeth in public bathroom - After getting smashed and sleeping on the floor, heading to work.
- $10 Water - Never acceptable.
- Pyjamas - You ever been in a council estate.
Pyjamas - You ever been in a council estate.
you don’t have to get dressed when you’re still in the estate mum. it’s not like going OUT.
Out out?
oot and aboot
My line is, I can go out in my dressing gown so long as I’m within sight of the house.
And I can drive in my dressing gown to drop someone off, so long as it’s inside town.
I bet Diogenes would pay the senate to let him live in an airport.
Why would the Cynic pay for something, especially to the Senate?
It’s a reference to the time Diogenes payed the senate to be able to live in a Market.
Brushing teeth in public bathrooms is common in Brazil, especially those of an office.
It’s funny. In America you never see it. I brush in the bathroom at work after lunch and everyone looks at me like I’m a mental patient. Like where else am I supposed to brush after lunch? Do people just not brush their teeth after every meal?
Do people just not brush their teeth after every meal?
In the USA the norm is morning and evening. Twice a day. Only at home.
Across my life in corporate America, I’ve seen a few people doing it after lunch, but it’s very rare.
That explains why a former coworker of mine, who is from Brazil, brushes his teeth at the bathrooms after lunch at work. I thought he must have had some special reason, but I never asked because I figured it would be too much of a personal question when we weren’t that close.
To be fair, yall don’t have fluoride in the water so you need to brush more often. (This is aimed at the Americans commenting)
Mine has free water fountains but yeah…
