Things traveling public does that is simply dumb

I have, like, 100 delta drink tickets

Send them to me.  TIA.  Unless you are planning a delta mile-high pak.  Which would be pretty incredible.  Just get everyone on the plane tanked.

TPA>MDW>MCI yesterday

amazing experiences all around

Does anyone get a drink that they wouldn't normally get on a flight? I mean, i'm usually a Diet Coke man, but on a flight I tend to get a Ginger Ale, or Cranberry juice (cocktail)

Should avoid this at all costs.  May as well be drinking battery acid mixed with a pound of sugar.

Way to hold out on me bro.  I enjoyed a nice lobster roll at Lucky's in Termy A at BOS yesterday.  Would have been great to saddle up for a few free drink courtesy of SD.

Sorry, didn't see these after sd refused to share drink tickets.

Logan has changed a bunch.  Terminals are pretty small...at least smaller than you'd think.  Delta's has a pretty bad chokepoint at security so if you are traveling on a popular travel day, like I was, be a bit early.  Lots of students fleeing Boston the days leading up to Thanksgiving/Xmas/Channukah etc.  But the priority line is pretty quick.  Terminals appear to be pretty crappy for plugging in for phone charging but I haven't scoped the new SWA termy updates. 

All of them have pretty good east coast grub.  Lobster rolls, sam adams pubs, Dunkin donuts etc.

If you are staying in town cabs to/from port are Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!) because of the Ted Williams tunnel fees.  Like $50 to Cambridge etc.  the Blue line is pretty fast depending on where you are going.  Plus, nothing beats townie watching at South Station/Kenmore/Park Street etc.  Unless you carrying an insane amount of baggage or in a hurry, take the T.

back-of-seat screens.  Either you paid 7 precious dollars to watch 1 1/2 hours of basic cable or some romantic comedy (you call them romcoms, tee hee) and you constantly look around to make sure no free-loaders are watching that tiny rough ridin' movie screen that was rip-roaring badass just 10 years ago (16:9  aspect ratio thankyouverymuch), OR you chose not to pay for it by god you aren't paying 7 dollars for a small screen when you've got the Wall Street Journal to catch up on by god and you don't turn off the goddamn screen so it just repeats the same goddamn ad the entire flight and eff you.  Brightness buttons.

What is the scoop on neck pillows

I must know asap!

When a fat couple stands next to each other on the moving walkway blocking traffic.  All you have to do is rotate 90 degrees counter-clockwise and stand next to each other while leaning against the right rail.  I rarely, if ever, use them but seeing this while walking by just reminds me of the combo of how fat/lazy most people are while jacking up my health insurance costs because my health insurance provider has to start paying for these people's Type 2 Diabetes medicine at 17, coupled with how these people don't give a crap about anyone around them.  These are usually the same people who bitch that they just can't get ahead in life even though they take a $3,000 vacation because they have to get away from their $28,000 a year job.

Those people aren't just lazy, they are real dicks.

Does it help get rid of that sore neck?  Or should I just buy a lot of xanax?  Or both?

I'll field this one...

Xanex is a must.  A MUST. 

The reality of the neck pillow is that is ends up forcing your head forward a bit...kinda uncomfortable.  I put it on my neck sideways and just lean that direction.  Xanax takes care of the rest.  Also, a Woodford or three on top of the Xanax is also effective.  Travel safe.

neck pillows suck ass /thread

\thread the only way to use one, IF YOU MUST, is to turn it around backwards and use it to rest your ching on while you sleep /thread

[Saulbadguy]

I do neck pillows on road trips,never on an airplane.

Headed home tomorrow morning LHR->ORD->MCI. Checked in online and nabbed exit row seats all the way . Heard great things about Torta Frontera in ORD so i'm gonna check that out. Torta Cubana + Goose Island 312 seems like a fantastic way to recover from a 9 hour flight.

Not flying back until the 8th. I'll leave half a beer for you tomorrow though. Look under the chair in the Northeast corner. You won't be disappointed.
