I feel like if you can't afford a day pass or a monthly membership, then maybe you shouldn't be doing mileage runs, or resign yourself to relaxing in the terminal.
Do FTers count as "strangers" as in the meet/guest thread? I guess I am tacky by offering to guest/meet by that standard since I know no one from FT in person. I have offered to guest many times but no one has ever taken me up on the offer on that thread.
You are offering your point of view as to why you wouldn't guest a stranger in. I was hoping to hear from the perspective of those who have guested other people in and why. Or, like myself, have had their offer rejected.
