Humiliation
There is a wonderful parlor game called Humiliation. The goal of the game is to name something that you haven’t done that everybody else in the room has done. To win you have to embarrass yourself, hence the name: Humiliation. For example, at a social gathering of English professors, admitting that you have never read Hamlet would glean you a lot of points--one for each person who had read Hamlet (and you might also earn the disdain of your colleagues). At a Fraternity party you could score big points by confessing to your Brothers that you never got drunk and threw up.
So, in context of Flyertalk, what rudimentary travel skill or feat do you lack that everybody else has accomplished? |
I’ll Narc myself out first: I have logged more miles in cars than in airplanes.

Never used a travel agent in my life.

Never made a mileage run.
|
Never redeemed an upgrade coupon, since I was too lazy to keep track of them! If everyone who reads this flies UA, I'm going to win this game! http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/biggrin.gif

Never lost my luggage.

Never got bumped, but I've been trying! (Any pointers?)
|
My best kept FlyerTalk secret. I've never spent a single mile on a flight award for myself, business or personal! I just can't cope without earning miles.
|
I am ashamed of you people! Keep ‘em coming.
|
Never used a skycap. My Midwest upbringing won't allow anyone else but me schlep my own luggage. http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/eek.gif
|
I never get the max miles possible out of trips. When a non-stop is available, I just can't bring myself to book the miles-rich multi-seg itinerary instead. http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/redface.gif

I've never bought an unrestricted ticket. Just do the best I can if plans end up changing. Ever spend 3 days in Kalamazoo?
|
I've never traveled for business.

How about this ... Never been questioned by US Customs. |
