I honestly can't believe we used to be able to smoke on planes. - JaxSean Feb 16, 11:40 18
- Sadly, I bet if Hooters Air allowed smoking, it would be a gold mine. -- nm - Spawn Feb 16, 11:47
- I've never flown on a plane where smoking was allowed. I simply can't even imagine it. - ty97 Feb 16, 11:44 1
  - it was unpleasant. -- nm - loosilu Feb 16, 11:45
- I went to Florida when I was 14, and I was sneaking fags down the back four rows of the plane. Wild now that you look back on it. -- nm - Loyola Feb 16, 11:42 5
  - Ahh, the things my dreams are made of -- nm - ty97 Feb 16, 11:45
  - That would be wild to see...not so sure I'd want to though - J Feb 16, 11:43 1
    - :) yeah we were all half nuts in those days -- nm - Loyola Feb 16, 11:50

  - it stopped on domestic flights long before international. it was the mid-80s in canada, - mafic Feb 16, 11:50
  - I did a quick search and Delta started the ban in 1995, but I could be wrong. -- nm - JaxSean Feb 16, 11:43 2
    - IIRC, the domestic ban came a few years earlier. The long-haul ban came by the mid 90s -- nm - ty97 Feb 16, 11:45
    - thanks. that's just wacky. -- nm - Mel Profit Feb 16, 11:44
- Sitting in a smoking car on a train in Europe was... eye-opening. - TFox Feb 16, 11:41

LIR: The two TAR seasons I'd recommend are Season 2 and Season 6 -- nm - Dano Feb 16, 11:19 10
- Thanks to you Jovian and Roger More for the advice. I'll check out those seasons mentioned first. - Krusty Feb 16, 11:24 2
  - my advice is to support Charla but not Mirna. TAR is an unusual reality show in that the contestants compete as a team, and several times I've found - Roger More Feb 16, 11:43
  - Mirna and Schmirna. nm - Jovian Feb 16, 11:41
- Your timing on this is impeccable. Are Kris and Jon still a couple? -- nm - David, envy of Bruce Campbell Feb 16, 11:24 1
  - We love that there is a Kris on this season that could easily be a part of that happy group. - Spawn Feb 16, 11:35

I know this is probably a conservative conspiracy, but I like the "audit them all!" proposition. - Mop Feb 16, 11:18 4
- It's about reagen. nm - Dignan Feb 17, 10:56
- Maybe that would be enough to spark some serious backlash. -- nm - TaurusII Feb 16, 11:20
- i don't understand why you need a campaign to make the IRS do it's job - Dane Duke Nuuk Feb 16, 11:20
- I agree...it's like term limits...we only hear about it when the democrats are in power -- nm - The Calico Cat Coalition Feb 16, 11:18
There is no way that there are 3 million people so allergic to peanuts that they can't share an airplane with them. -- nm - TFox Feb 16, 11:17 39
- Also, will they search passengers for nuts? Like, you have to surrender your snickers, or peanut butter crackers at the gate? -- nm - Amy Feb 16, 11:26 4
  - "I gots two." -- nm - JaxSean Feb 16, 11:27 3
    - If you can't guarantee a peanut free plane, then you might as well serve them. -- nm - Amy Feb 16, 11:28 2
      - Or, for that matter, a nut free airport. If peanut smell kills you, you might not even make it to the gate. -- nm - Amy Feb 16, 11:30 1
        
        You're no fun when I'm trying to make a testicle joke. -- nm - JaxSean Feb 16, 11:35
- Peanuts must be so dirt cheap compared to pretzels. -- nm - Shaun Feb 16, 11:19 29
  - Bought at the Peanut Corporation of America going out of business sale. -- nm - Mop Feb 16, 11:24
  - I'm shocked we still get any free snack at all. -- nm - Amy Feb 16, 11:22 27
    - yeah, I say screw it. I usually bring food on the plane anyways (subway, McD, whatever) -- nm - oblique, better than nubby Feb 16, 11:25 10
      - Next time, just bring a jar of peanut butter. -- nm - JaxSean Feb 16, 11:27 9
        
        I'm sure we've brought PB&J sandwiches for the kids on trips before - oblique, better than nubby Feb 16, 11:28

        does it count as a "gel" or someting? -- nm - loosilu Feb 16, 11:29
        
        When I went through, we forgot to take out the pop cans and juice boxes. The TSA screener let me pick like 2 to take through - oblique, better than nubby Feb 16, 11:29
        
        Really? Wow. -- nm - JaxSean Feb 16, 11:28 4
        
        You'd have to put it in a little container in your zip lock baggie thing. -- nm - Amy Feb 16, 11:30 1
        
        and it would have to be a jar under 2 ounces, which doesn't exist. -- nm - loosilu Feb 16, 11:32
        
        falls in the liquid/gel category, I imagine. -- nm - mafic Feb 16, 11:30
        
        Well, you can't take through any containers like that with stuff in them -- nm - oblique, better than nubby Feb 16, 11:29
    - I usually don't even eat the snacks. (I do like the 3 ounces of soda I get, though.) -- nm - JaxSean Feb 16, 11:24 15
      - Wait for the diabetics to protest those away -- nm - The Calico Cat Coalition Feb 16, 11:26 14
        
        The diabetics also have diet soda options on flights. -- nm - kelly Feb 16, 11:47
        
        Like kelly said, there's quite a difference. I can't accidentally kill the person next to me because I'm drinking a coke if they're diabetic. - JaxSean Feb 16, 11:30 12
        
        ahem. that was me. -- nm - loosilu Feb 16, 11:31 4
        
        You're a diabetic? -- (link) - JaxSean Feb 16, 11:34 [Backboard] 3
        
        Thanks. :) -- nm - kelly Feb 16, 11:46
        
        and who said something about stading next to sugar? -- nm - loosilu Feb 16, 11:34 1
        
        I don't know. who? -- nm - JaxSean Feb 16, 11:35
        
        I wonder how these people ever attend a baseball game -- nm - oblique, better than nubby Feb 16, 11:31 6
        
        who cares? to hell with them. -- nm - loosilu Feb 16, 11:31 5
        
        No one is saying that...just that we shouldn't make the US a peanut free zone -- nm - The Calico Cat Coalition Feb 16, 11:33 3
        
        I'm not saying that at all. a plane is a special case. It's a sealed tin can with recirculating air. -- nm - loosilu Feb 16, 11:34 2
        
        Oh, it starts with the planes. Next, it's buses, then theaters, then restaurants. Next thing you know, *poof*! No peanuts allowed anywhere! - JaxSean Feb 16, 11:37 1
        
        fight for your right to peanuts! -- nm - loosilu Feb 16, 11:39
        
        Pretty much. I know around here there was some stink about people not burning leaves because the stuff in the air could kill some people - oblique, better than nubby Feb 16, 11:33
- I'm pretty sure that's why the peanut gods created cars, trains and busses. -- nm - JaxSean Feb 16, 11:19 2
  - why go somewhere in four hours when you can take three days instead? -- nm - mafic Feb 16, 11:22 1
    - Ex-actly! *And* live to tell about it! -- nm - JaxSean Feb 16, 11:23
- probably not. -- nm - loosilu Feb 16, 11:18

  - Sir, come with me, please. You've been asked to leave. Please don't make a fuss and come quietly. -- nm - Mop Feb 16, 11:26 2
    - Never! -- nm - Shaun Feb 16, 11:27 1
      - *phhhhhhht* -- nm - Dart Gun Feb 16, 11:31
- Just off the top.....Indy 2 & 3 are the same? Jurassic Park 1 is only a above-average? Die hard 2 better than 3? - Will Hunting Feb 16, 11:20 3
  - It's a mess. Back to the Future 2 ranks over 3? -- nm - Mop Feb 16, 11:22 1
    - back to the future 2 made me feel extremely uncomfortable in my giblets. -- nm - Beryllium Feb 16, 11:24
  - Yeah, that chart has some pretty glaring flaws. (Die Hard 2 was not very good, but I haven't watched it for years ...) -- nm - Beryllium Feb 16, 11:22
- what are the measuring? -- nm - Mel Profit Feb 16, 11:18 4
  - Quality of each film. -- nm - Inigo Feb 16, 11:19
  - Probably quality of the film. But according to whom? -- nm - Mop Feb 16, 11:19 2
    - Me. -- nm - Jim Feb 16, 11:21 1
      - *hmmm* Give that man a show! -- nm - ABC Executive Feb 16, 11:23
Sidebar ad is making me very curious what a Timbaland-produced Chris Cornell album will sound like. -- nm - TFox Feb 16, 11:16 2
