The India comparison is perfect, but there is assigned seating. Maybe they also sell standing room tickets, I don't know.
People camp out on the stairs with no fucks given that they are blocking access to the upper level seats.
Conductors were mia or didn't give a shit.
I told the kid and wife to stay close and just stomped through and over them. I'm sitting in a seat I paid for by gawd, not squatting in the stairs like im on a chicken bus.
Id rather fly spirit than go through that again.
Just horribly crowded. A complete mosh pit getting on then having to fight your way through hot stinking crowds to get to your seat. People sitting in the stairwell blocking access, standing around in the drink car because they couldn't get to their seats, etc.
This was in the summer so it was the busy season I guess.
Yeah when we went a few years ago , I would start out in French with my drawl and they would quickly switch to English. Generally they seemed to appreciate the effort.
Outside of Paris they were a little more snobbish about it but not too bad.
Germans were a lot worse and I don't speak any German.
Last bit of general advice to anybody going to France:Do NOT ride the TGV.
How far did he have to ride that sub, even at periscope depth? I don't specifically remember from the movie, but seems a little (or very) improbable.
Even as a kid, seemed like a major plot hole.
Agree on your first point
Just finished
First in a planned trilogy by The Expanse writers.
Not as good as The Expanse series, kind of out there. But I'll probably read the entire trilogy when it comes out.
The hair and the PT crap was the excuse, not the reason. The reason was so he could cosplay being a manly SecWar, show em who's boss, force them to obey bullshit orders to make himself feel big and tough.
doTArd was there because everything has to be about him, can't let a toadie get any press without him.
Seems like a really fucking bad idea to pole around in shallow water anywhere near bull elephants.
Does day two of their safari adventure itinerary call for a hike through lion and hyena country? Idiots.
