Trivial Things That Make You Surly
I remember about 10 or 15 years ago when they switched having a deposit box for "local" vs "out of town" to the current system. Before the switch, people could sometimes get their mail the same day it was dropped at the post office, or by the next day at the latest. Now it takes three to four days.

Elon Musk: Nazi traitor piece of shit [Confirmed]
when my daughter was little, she liked to play "Free Street." I would pretend to shop, and when I asked how much whatever I was buying cost, she would say somethingl along the lines of 'Daddy, everything is free on Free Street." And I would have to pretend to be amazed by such a thing. Then everytime we played, Free Street would get even crazier, and if I bought one car for free, I would get a second car for free also. Then it would escalate all the way up to I get a million dollars back in change. IIRC, she was about four years old at the time.

The France Thread
I think the first class people boarded with everyone else. Or if they had their own entrance/boarding door, then at least one large family got fucked. Once you get to your seats, its fine. Its just getting through the tight, smelly, hot logjam to get to your seats that fucking sucks. And you're having to deal with luggage also. However, only rode it once in my life, so maybe I was just unlucky that day. Also, it was early July, so tourist season.

The France Thread
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.

The France Thread
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.

The France Thread
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.

Nerdsplaining Movie Plot Holes
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

Scifi/Fantasy Book Recs
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.
