  1. For some reason I doubt those who smell strongly of reefer do so because they’ve been mainlining their special brownies. I know the potheads are offended, but I think it’s unlikely that everyone switched from edibles to smoking when MJ was legalized in several places.
  2. No, what happened is the MJ crowd got butthurt about their drug smelling. IDGAF if you use it or not, but I don’t want to smell it anymore than I want to sniff a used ashtray. Ive just noticed that people don’t seem to be getting boozed to get by on an airplanes anymore, and that drugs, medicinal, recreational or harder for the triggered leaf heads, seems to be the cause. And that correlates nicely with smelling people toking up prior to checking in my experience. No, potheads only aren’t charging flightdecks. Disruptive passengers doesn’t just mean the idiot throwing punches or making terroristic threats. That’s a very low percentage of the folks getting kicked off planes or met by law enforcement at the destination. FA’s going crazy? You don’t know enough FA’s if that surprises you.
  3. I’m relatively confident that damn near anything goes in say Oregon. Having said that, if you had read the entirety of the posts weed was only a part of it. I mentioned off their meds or abusing them, this is often the case when someone is losing it, and weed is a well known gateway drug. I think it’s a combination thereof. Regardless, it has a distinctive smell, and it’s nearly universally present in my experiences with disruptive passengers. I’ve had these conversations with coworkers several times before. The tie one on and go fly model of surviving airline service and seat pitches seems to be falling out of favor for showing up blazed and worse. As an aside, you will rule the world if any one of you MF’s figures out how to make weed smell like menthol, a swisher sweet or the like instead of microwaved skunk anus.
  4. Sigh. If I had implied weed was the cause of psychotic behavior then you might have a point. For every off their meds or abusing them individual, or on something else for that matter, there’s some dipshit, low grade stoner smelling of MJ who can’t remember if the terminal carpet also suffices as a urinal. The larger point being that’s its not people showing up boozed to the airport as the poster I replied to suggested. The drop off areas of damn near any airport has the distinctive skunk ass smell of marijuana these days. And that has not remotely been the case in the past. I’m sure plenty of other drugs are being used too.
  5. It’s been more people using the recently legalized ,or not, drugs of their choice who’ve been going batshit lately. And not a few who are either not using or abusing their medications. Most curbside drop off points approximate what I would imagine Snoop Dog’s parties smell like.
  6. The Navy recently filed a bunch of patents for things like compact fusion reactors, anti grav drive units and inertia dampers. They're either messing about to make others think we might possess this tech when it’s aliens. Or we possess this tech.
  7. Interesting because the Aerion supersonic corporate jet program just went belly up.
  8. I’m sure he was hoping for “Dual Input”, but ended up with “Priority Left” followed by “Retard, retard!”.
  9. And they all conveniently speak English without the pretense for a need for a universal translator or babble fish unless they’re dealing with Klingons.
  10. I’m sure there are plenty of better looking gold diggers willing to peg him on the reg.
  11. They’re installing Godzukitron in the North Endzone upper deck for those disaffected by the party platforms
  12. That’s not age related. Plenty of a$$holes with control issues still pulling that BS these days. Far more prevalent in the private world where some of the more special people can hide. I was speaking to experienced pilots often kicking wrong pedals in V1 cut scenarios. It was nearly an exclusive club with that regard. And stupider still was the fact that most never seemed to catch on to the fact that the failed engine on checkride night tended to be the the right one so the the TOGA button was easily accessible in a familiar place on the operational thrust lever. And vice versa on warm up night.
  13. If those craft caught on film by our navy fighters are actually the Sanctuary II then Thanos is Lilliputian and we have nothing to fear. <insert Men In Black size doesn’t matter comment here>
  14. I’m making no judgement about the PIC’s ability, but quite often some of our more seasoned fractional pilots in their late 60’s and early 70’s self retired in the sim by doing much the same thing. Just terrible all around.
  15. Give me the plane that gets hit by another plane and keeps on ticking. You can have the parachute. SA-226/7 is a beast.
  16. they are building in the wrong place "I am the monarch of the sea I am the ruler of the coup....."
  17. Negative waves perhaps?
  18. Mammatus clouds. Definitely my favorite.
  19. I’m sure it’ll be some version of it minus any shackles, not that any were apparent, that saban may have put on it.
  20. Not quite a Liberty Bell, but still made an impressive sound hitting my roof in Keller.
  21. Connecting on 5% more throws where the receiver is thrown open would seem to be a difference maker in a race where both QB’s are essentially equal otherwise. Casey threw Brewer open in the Alamo Bowl. He seems to see and execute a layered passing attack quite well. That pairs nicely with a strong rushing attack. Card, otoh, seems to see and anticipate holes of the defense in a more on schedule manner. it may be that Casey’s escapability and layered passing is needed more than Card’s more structured ability this year, but I think Card’s game wins out once pass pro tightens up and we have more toys at the skill positions.
  22. In other news Indonesia apparently sources their uniforms from Wal-Mart and we have an Argo F yourself sighting.
  23. Technically speaking are those Indian blankets?
  24. I would assume so. It’s a well engineered vehicle. I only wish the HUD was a stand alone option.
