OT: The Thread About Nothing

[OmNomNom]

Been there a couple times. I'm 6'4" and 250 pounds. I felt like Godzilla there. Tokyo is *NOT* made for someone my size.

Aside from that, I don't remember enough for any advice for you, other than getting the exit row or business class for the flight. 15 hour flight? I CAN'T EVEN SIT ON MY COUCH FOR 15 HOURS.

what about food places or things to see?

haha and fortunately for me, i'm asian american so i should blend in just fine hahaha

This airport is hilariously tiny. The plane literally pulls right up to the front door.

If anyone here vapes, the iStick Pico is f***ing indestructible.

I just dropped it on the concrete sidewalk and the atomizer base came completely separated from the tank. Pushed it back to together with force and it still works.

What airport is that?

 

[TheUnseenHand]

What airport is that?

Cape Girardeau, MO.

 

[Bleedred]

Cape Girardeau, MO.

Yeah, I've heard that one was small. There's a lot of small ones where you have to get on multiple flights through larger airports.

I usually fly out of Lehigh Valley International, which is very small, and connect through larger airports. This one makes Lehigh look enormous.

I like the Maiden version

When I first heard Number of the Beast in 1982 it was unlike anything I had ever heard before.

If you like Solo's check this one out that starts about 3:42. It a classic Iron Maiden dual solo by Adrian Smith and Dave Murray. Seemless between the two of them.

not that i dont like solos but i was trying to point out the clash solo is the theme from the prisoner

i play guitar and i suck at soloing but was blessed with solid rhythm instead

This Google thing is getting INSANE!!!!!!!!!

Google bosses have forced employees to delete a confidential memo circulating inside the company that revealed explosive details about a plan to launch a censored search engine in China.....Dragonfly, would require users to log in to perform searches, track their location — and share the resulting history with a Chinese partner who would have “unilateral access” to the data. Chinese users’ movements would also be stored, along with the IP address of their device and links they clicked on. It accuses developers working on the project of creating “spying tools” for the Chinese government to monitor its citizens.

This thing would have been used to imprison & execute people. Then GOOG tried to cover-it-up.

I'm gonna be at this damn airport all night. I've seen every corner of it. Nothing left to do. I'm also caught up on 2 additional manwha series and starting a 3rd. My neck is tired from staring at my phone.

Actually, I kinda LIKE prop planes.

I thought you worked with fish?

 

[TheUnseenHand]

I thought you worked with fish?

I used to work for the Fish and Boat Commission as a Biologist years ago. I have been out of that field for a while now. It's a long story, but I found that I have a real passion for Quality Assurance. I'm a Quality Engineer now.

Yes. Up the f*cking Irons.

The most amazing thing about Iron Maiden is that Bruce Dickenson is their pilot for their 747. Quite an accomplished dude.

There's an awesome movie about Iron Maiden and Bruce flying them all over and doing concerts. They are like the frigging Beatles in Brazil. 300k plus jamming into soccer stadiums.

Edit: Thought that might be a ridiculously big concert, but evidently Rod Steward played in front of 3.5Million in Rio at one point. That's absurd.
