Polar on Netflix is a solid Assassin film. Lots of T & A - plus action/fight scenes. -- nm - Epiphany Feb 12, 07:32 5
- I finished up The Bodyguard (A-/B+), and started the first few episodes of Russian Doll. - JaxSean Feb 12, 07:35 2
  - Doll is only 8 episodes, moves very quick; keep at it -- nm - Beaker Feb 12, 07:36 1
    - OK -- nm - JaxSean Feb 12, 07:49
- spoilers - Beaker Feb 12, 07:32 1
  - yeah, If I had known about that - I'd have skipped the entire movie -- nm - Epiphany Feb 12, 07:54
This story of the "Accidental Bra Fairy" probably doesn't go where you think it will -- (link) - prayformojo Feb 12, 07:30 1

- I know from D&D that gazebos are the real danger. -- nm - Baroon 5 Feb 12, 07:21
Game of Thrones spoilers - Beaker Feb 12, 07:10
Isn't it Romantic's runtime... 1:28. -- nm - MDH Feb 12, 06:56 2
- seems about an hour and 20 minutes too long -- nm - ty97 Feb 12, 07:11
- *approves* -- nm - Baroon 5 Feb 12, 07:00
I'm used to airports in Asia having flights that ran all hours, including overnight but not common in US. I have a 12:50am flight tonight - ty97 Feb 12, 06:41 24
- DCA closes early so we never get late flights there. I think my latest was out of LAX to Sydney. -- nm - MDH Feb 12, 07:06
- Our flight to Thailand out of JFK left at 12:45am. - Inigo Feb 12, 07:02 7
  - Hong Kong, via Seoul. - ty97 Feb 12, 07:04 6
    - Have some dim sum for meh! -- nm - SyrDragon Feb 12, 07:14
    - Ooooh, fancy. I love the Incheon airport! They have amazing lounges for the peons. Nap rooms for the regular folk. -- nm - Inigo Feb 12, 07:06 4
      - Never been through ICN. Apparently the Korean Air terminal is rather new -- nm - ty97 Feb 12, 07:09 3
        
        We were on Korean Air. I think ICN is the best airport I've been to. - Inigo Feb 12, 07:15 2
        
        I've heard great things about ICN. -- nm - ty97 Feb 12, 07:16 1
        
        (I'm probably on the same flight you took out of JFK) -- nm - ty97 Feb 12, 07:16
- But like, at some Asian airports, they just go 24/7. Like I've taken a flight into Bangalore that arrived at 2am. Same flight departed at 4am. -- nm - ty97 Feb 12, 07:00

    - What I'm seeing at T1 - ty97 Feb 12, 06:57 2
      - [deleted] 1
        
        I'm saying it is uncommon in the US (with apparent exceptions) -- nm - ty97 Feb 12, 07:35
    - I think it's mostly about scheduling the flight to arrive in the early morning, which is what suits the business travellers most -- nm - Roger More Feb 12, 06:53 3
      - I think it's a combo of that and JFK slot availability. JFK is full at peak times. So several airlines run more than one flight. - ty97 Feb 12, 06:59 2
        
        Oh yeah - when you've got multiple flights on the same route, you want to spread them out a bit to provide the service your customers want. - Roger More Feb 12, 07:05 1
        
        I think the MNL flight basically took whatever slot it could get (it's relatively new). - ty97 Feb 12, 07:08
  - My flight from Cancun in a couple weeks leaves at 2:45am. What the hell was I thinking? -- nm - Andie Feb 12, 06:47 2

    - No sleep 'til Cancun! -- nm - Baroon 5 Feb 12, 06:57

- Opposite world, I'm home but my cow orkers are at the office even though all the schools are closed all along my commute. Didn't see a plow until 10am -- nm - SyrDragon Feb 12, 07:31
- We're closed today. I'm working from home. -- nm - Dano Feb 12, 06:46

- didn't....Dems....win.....an AZ seat a few months ago? -- nm - ty97 Feb 12, 06:12 1

    - WND is not a reputable news source. But... we already knew that. -- nm - Qale Feb 12, 06:01
