I actually mentioned you on the most recent zoom... about meeting up with a bunch of FTers (cow, calf, dc, dc's wife, you, etc.) (Dec 2019?), and then you driving me back to YVR and me missing my flight.

Because the number of times that's resulted in "yes" and a regular Coke is quite high.
I do that in English speaking regions, in quiet environments. Anything over the phone is a non-starter there.
And as others have mentioned, the diet/light discrepancy can be even worse, since that product has a different name in different regions, yet "Zero" is always the same.

Hi folks,
A few posts were deleted as they dealt in a little too much detail on a topic that should really be carried on elsewhere on FT, such as the Trusted Traveler forum. This thread has been given a degree of latitude to carry on some conversations in between the weekly online Do's but much like the forum lounge thread detailed discussions of some matters should be explore in other corners of FT.
Regards,

Sorry for the hiccups. I had to act all smart and convince the FA to reboot the wifi system twice before this started working.

Another well attended Saturday DO that lasted till 6AM EST. Who needs to reality TV show when we have DOs like this that change weekly?
-Participants joined from two competing *G airline flights simultaneously.
-AC bag mishandling between a domestic to transborder connection led to one participant getting IDB'd plus an unwanted 14+ hour overnight connection.
-A rare extended (and seemingly sober) @codfather sighting. No morning run, hot date, or other excuse to drop off before midnight Atlantic time.
-Group effort to help an esteemed member with a paid Zoom account find the only open airport lounge. (for context, this was all in their "home" airport). Later, live streaming the struggle to change terminals inside, then outside, then through a parking garage. Finally--big suspense--their connection went out RIGHT AFTER we heard them say "it may be a very bad idea to approach airport police....."

I was trying to ascertain if the only open lounge was open at that hour, which at least one of you helped me with.
I know which lounge is open, because it's been the only open lounge for at least 6 months.
But the rest is a reasonable recollection.
