never knew of that advantage and I want to check on the trip cancelation coverage as well. I have always been buying the refundable, but maybe I don't have to.

OT: New Airline Boarding Process
- Thread starter mildone_rivals
- Start date
I see the discussion about checking bags or not. If I am not with my wife, I actually don't mind checking a bag if I am going for a week or more. Allows me to pack a couple of different shoes/sneakers - maybe toiletries of my choice - if business, a couple selections of outfits as well as casual wear and like someone said- walk around the airport pre flight without the worry.
With the wife- she hates to check bags- which means she is filling her carry on and half of mine. She also never believes me on what they will and will not allow until they take it from her bag and then she is pissed at me for some reason like I tipped them off. And then when we fly together- she wants an aisle seat, which is my preference as well but she wants me in the middle seat vs my suggestion of both taking aisles in the same row. And since she doesn't want to check a bag- we also have to stuff **** into back packs and laptop bags as our personal items and guess what, they go under my feet or in my lap. lol

Which is worse, diarrhea or constipation?People putting ketchup on hot dogs.
Passing in the right lane - efficient, dangerous or both?
Mayo on fries? Yummy or an abomination?
As a kid- my Dad loved Fried Fish and we would do Hojo's at least once a month- I think Thursday's were all you could eat fried fish/clams
I discovered back then that Tartar sauce on fries was the bomb- plain mayo, not sure of but Tartar yum
Ketchup or Catsup only should go on burgers and fries. There is NOTHING else it should ever touch- eggs, homefries, meatloaf, hotdogs- NFW

It should be- "just do what the wife wants" - as we all know, they are never happy lol
Clear? The TSA folks always wind up doing a cavity search on me, for some reason. Which has a pronounced clearing effect.
Is that what you mean?
Excellent questions, those.
The worst is constirrhea, which is a never-ending god-awful combination of the two. You get all bound up but, if you push hard enough, you get explosive bloody diarrhea. Uh, or so I heard. From a friend. A friend I don't know very well. Yeah.
Passing in the right lane, while both dangerous and efficient, is a necessary evil due to Priuses and Model 3s who do 50 mph (in a 65) in the left lane all the time. This should be a capital offense.
Mayo is an abomination. An affront to civilization. I'm all about freedom, but Mayo should be banned worldwide. Restaurants that put mayo on anything without first asking (and obtaining a waiver) should be cancelled.
You scan your thumb print or eye scan and you move to the front of the security line.
In my experience, it's the thumb print or eye scan that always prompts the cavity search.
Mayo on it's own or do you hate mayo even if used as an additive?
Worked with a guy with complete aversion to mayo.
Personally- most great sandwiches require the crap...just saying lol
I hate it on or in anything.
When I was a kid, in grade school, I loved it. But one day, gluttony drove me to eating a loaf of bread with nothing but massive amounts of mayo on each slice. Unsurprisingly, I felt awful afterward, my stomach and digestive system rebelling against it intensely.
After that, even the sight of it makes me queasy and the smell makes me nauseous.
Mayonnaise usually evokes strong emotions - I had a co-worker who couldn't even stand the sight of it let alone have it near her food. I can definitely see why you don't eat it anymore.I thought it was a pretty crappy story.
I'm with @mildone on mayo - it oughta be eradicated from the planet or at least never be allowed to be put on French fries.
Ketchup is perfect for fries, burgers, eggs, homefries, and meatloaf, but should not be used on hot dogs, like my wife does.
Mayo is awesome.
And a mandatory ingredient of fry sauce.
Not sure what that has to do with airline boarding, but there it is.

Other than the risk of dying due to dehydration from extended diarrhea, I'd way rather have the runs, as it's nowhere near as unpleasant as having a cork up your butt (figuratively).
Correct answers on #2 and #3...
Not as visceral towards mayo as you, but is there anything worse than finding mayo in your Italian sub?
You're not kidding. One of my all-time favorite experiences simply won't ever happen again for anybody on a commercial flight. In 2000, I was flying back from a couple of months working in Ireland in first class on Aer Lingus (nice work perk for working one's *** off for months at a time leading an API process tech transfer to our manufacturing site there) and had asked a couple of aviation/weather questions to one of the flight attendants I had gotten friendly with over a few flights (not that friendly, lol).
So she said hold on, I'll ask the captain and about 10 minutes later the captain came back and sat in the empty chair next to me and we talked for about 30 minutes about a host of aviation/weather topics, as well as about Ireland, hurling, beer, etc., as he was from Tipperary, which is where our factory is (Clonmel). Was a pretty cool conversation.
Then about an hour later, they announced we were about to start our descent into JFK and the FA came up to me and said the captain wanted to know if I wanted to come up and sit in the jump seat for the landing. Hell yeah! Was so cool to be able to see in all directions and watch the crew communicating with the tower and the crew explained everything they were doing and how it was all basically automated - they just put in the coordinates, speed and direction.
And as we were about 30 seconds from touchdown, the captain had his hand over the throttle and proceeds to turn around for a few seconds and explain how he does that "just in case" he needs to go manual. I was like, great, but you can turn back around and the whole crew chuckled - after we landed the captain said they like to bust the chops of people they let sit in the jump seat for the landing, by turning around right before touchdown. We had a good laugh at that. Can't see this happening again in the post 9/11/2001 world, unfortunately. Thanks bin Laden.
My wife puts mayo on her subs, including Italian subs. She also puts ketchup on hot dogs. She also eats grilled or fried chicken strips in dishes/salads, but won't eat them on a sandwich. Sometimes I have to just shake my head.
With Italian subs- sometimes the oil/vinegar can get a little sloppy so there have been times I have gotten a spicy mustard instead. I do have to admit- there may have been a time or two I may have mixed in a little mayo with the mustard.
Also like mayo on a bologna and cheese too. and of course turkey or Roast Beef.
My wife won't eat a sandwich at all
And no- ketchup does not go on eggs, home fries or meatloaf! lol
Football in a baseball stadium. But nothing else.
Once or twice, I've ordered roast beef subs and forgot to say "no mayo" but the place would put mayo on it anyway. I go back and have them do it over. Ew.
I would suggest you sell her but you'd tell her I said that and she'd come over and kick my ***. And while I am certainly due a good ***-kicking, the timing is bad 'cause I'm still sore from all the Halloween party preparations.
In inimitable fashion, the Rutgers community has solved the aircraft boarding problem.
Mayo lovers followed by "I only like it on some things" followed by "mayonnaise is gross".
The latter group to be seated adjacent to the rear galley, where the economy class meal will be bologna sandwiches with extra mayo.

I already told her you suggested it and she's coming over with the flamethrower, so there is no escape.
So now if you want to dominate teh carry-on space, be sure to get a window seat... or just upgrade to any of the other hundred "classes" of seats they sell.

I think the Dutch like it with French Fries.
Yes, they do - spent a couple of days in Amsterdam a few years ago and was appalled. Probably worse than eating dogs or cats, lol.
Ketchup or straight up are generally the way to go, but I used to go to a place that had a mayo-horseradish dressing on the side for sandwiches that was also great for fry dipping. Okay, commence barfing from you and @mildone.
And she has a mole on her elbow, so it's touch and go at this point, lol...
@Richard Schnyderite clearly this is a CE board thread. People being too cheap to pay for it is irrelevant. Especially during the season. Please move it to the appropriate board.
No, it's not a CE board thread because it hasn't turned it into a political pissing match. Yet. Which I'm sure you'll try to do, because you can't help yourself. @Richard Schnyderite - if you thread-ban this troll, it can keep going as a fun, light-hearted thread about nothing, which is the appeal of most OT threads that don't get derailed.
