i'm in an airport

yeah my flight got delayed an hour and it's real fucking boring here

has anyone been to an airport where they make you pay to use outlets? they make you at dfw, so at least kci's got fucking free power going for it

Ouch that is harsh never seen that before. Of course a lot of airports don't have outlets and you have to search around for the ones the cleaners use.

in nashville for 2 hours now

basically got a high-quality mini-mall/food court in the terminal here and the internet is quick and @ $9.99 for 2 hours it's pretty worth it

they also have country singers that say shit over the PA like "hello, this is X from sugarland. remember, if you see any suspicious baggage throughout the terminal, please immediately notify the appropriate authorities," which is pretty rad

i grew up in nashville! i love that airport!!

do they still have that smoking room?>

it's like glass and smoky

i'm sure they do, most airports do, but i haven't seen it

are you gonna get a drink?

oh wait you're little are you legal?

yeah im only 20, so no

riiight.

i love airpots tho. are you gonna get anything to eat?

lol ya they got a rly nice food court. probably gonna get some some pizza from this place that looks like a nicer sbarro. maybe quiznos

Ahh, the Nashville airport. I love that smoking room. It almost makes me want to quit.

hahaha

i love that you know it! there's something extra smokey about that one in particular.

mmm sbarro.

I lived in Nashville for four years, so I'm pretty familiar with it.

It's kind of like an observation chamber from Silence of the Lambs.

omgosh i know. where did you live?

I lived east of the airport, on Bell Rd (worked in Mt. Juliet).

so sad you are underage. airport drinking is the best.

the most interesting characters choose to spend layover time in airport bars. can you go there and order coke?

i agree -- i also just recently discovered plane drinking. not bad at all.

i flew on my 21st birthday and got all kinds of free drinks from flight attendants and ppl sitting by me and never even told anyone it was my 21st. totally cosmic.

My turn now. London city, the bar here is very dissapointing, however great to go through somewhere small enough that train-security-bar takes 5 minutes.

that is great

Why do bars in british airports suck so much. I would like a pint of say gin and grapefruit juice (preferably a dutch oude jenever but that is pushing it). Est Est Est, garfunkels and wetherspoons are not coming up with the goods.

You have got to be kidding. Dunno where you are, but Chavwick is even worse than that. You will be lucky to get lime in your G&T and the gin will be Gordon's.

BTW massive IKEA hassle, 15 minute fight with Computer Says D'oh type first thing this morning. Will mail ya later.

I've always wanted to post on this thread.

I'm in an airport - Philadelphia. Soon I'll be in Denver (ANOTHER AIRPORT!) and then Boulder.

Damn, I wish I could join the Drinking at the Airport gang. But it's 9am.

nothing is stopping you

I've never flown Continental before so this is my first experience with LAX's Terminal 6. Not squalid but pretty worn down. On my way to SDF via Houston.

IAH is tremendously ugly. Terminals and passageways shoved together out of necessity with no regard to passenger traffic flow. Grafting TSA security checkpoints only magnifies things. Insult to injury: the first thing I see getting off the plane is the Fox News Store followed by a statue of George H W Bush.

On the plus side the breakfast plate special at Harlon's BBQ (eggs, bacon, grits, & biscuits/gravy) was outstanding and cost less than a single beer at LAX.

Further insult to injury: the Chautauqua (much-maligned CO feeder carrier) TundraJet you'll be on IAH-SDF.

i will be flying through phoenix on my way to maui in a few weeks... how's that airport?

Tiny. It's fine though. What airline are you flying that puts you through PHX and not LAX to Maui?

I'm in Cleveland! But soon I won't be.

i'm in an airport

a House of Rep member from my state (actually hometown) is sitting right next to me. no chance of being airborn for at least 2 more hrs. good times

I will be in Cleveland in 2 days! another Raggett near-miss.

felicity, i'm flying us air

It's supposed to be rainy as heck here all week, Morbius. We had a hailstorm yesterday. A HAILSTORM.

We're supposed to have hail in NY perhaps too. Weather.com describes upcoming CLE storms as "scattered."

As long as they get the Sabathia game in Friday night! (of course I might spontaneously go Thursday night too if Fri looks bad.)

i'm in an airport.

there are slot machines everywhere.

but it's okay, i have a sandwich.

Yeah, I lucked out with good weather for my flights today but the Ohio and Cuyahoga Valleys' weather in general has been, how you say, flaky...

Anyway I am now not in an airport and won't be for eight days. Hurrah for Charleston. Train stations, another matter...

Friday, Schmiday. I've got tix for Saturday's game, so I'm holding out for sunshine.

SFO. On the jetway, was in Admirals Club with comp vouchers. It seems like such a ripoff. Who pays for that? Although the bartender did fill up my outside Diet Coke for me.

I am on an air train. Flight leaves in 50 min. Will I make it? Probably, but I wish it was faster to get here.

JFK airtarain, hell yeah. EWR airtrain, start praying.

JFK. On the plane now! Fuck a window seat for a 5.5 hour flight tho! Claustrophobia ahoy!

take some tylenol PM

like six of them
