No worries, I didn't take it that way. I really enjoy the Tangerine Express IPA. In fact, I picked up a crowler of that for this weekend.
Question for this with more experience on the west coast than me: we have a 6pm-9am connection at LAX. Where would you go and where would you stay in this case?

fixed "Paris" to "Oatis" in the original 
There's prob a bazillion choices in the LAX area depending on interests/hotel loyalty/etc.
Probably a lot of people would suggest the In-N-Out thing but IMO In-N-Out, while decent, is way over-hyped especially as a layover activity
I did "star" this place in Google Maps as a restaurant I'd like to try, after seeing it mentioned a few times on FT:
If you like sushi... head to Kanpai.
Take the Sepulveda Parking Spot shuttle then walk 5 minutes. Best sushi bar anywhere near LAX. They will tempura fry anything!!! The Avocados are amazing. Sushi is fresh daily and as good as it gets! Don't waste your time in airline lounges...yucko!

Walkable sushi/ramen place open until 23:00. You walk on the hotel side of Sepulveda about 2 1/2 blocks past In and Out:

Their sister restaurant on Lincoln Blvd. is open until 01:00 but it is not really walkable from the Hyatt.

It is bloody cold in BRW. The Arctic Ocean still has a huge amount of ice. This 24 hours of sunlight is weird. Silly me - the Alaska crowd told me that it is a dry town so can't even have a local beer because there is no such thing. ��

Raise your hand if I'm not the only one who saw the last post on this thread was from one of the mods other than Canarsie and your pulse quickened as you wondered who could possibly have said what to get the thread locked

concur ... Fairfield and Courtyard in El Segundo have shuttle service from/to LAX; I'm not aware of many properties in Manhattan/Hermosa Beach that do
concur ... maybe 8-10 min by taxi/Uber from El Segundo hotels

Meant to post this earlier but forgot...currently on a long-ish connection in ATL. Will be here until 10pm EDT. Currently at B SkyClub but willing to go elsewhere if FTers are around.

Gotta love 757s.
Doubt that would work with the fat pig that is the 739.
