every time a news story uses the term "first class" about a D1 flight we have 20+ posts derailing a thread nitpicking over a meaningless difference just so some people can inflate their post counts and feel smart for once in their life

How about any news story involving "the Delta airlines terminal at Atlanta Hartsfield Airport and flight 1234 to Orlando, Florida on a Boeing MD-80/90"...accompanied of course by a photo of a 757 wearing circa 2004 livery taxiing in front of a terminal at DTW?

Saw a story the other day about LHR airport and an event that day. The image was of a CO 747 taxing! 1)CO stopped flying 747s in the 90s, 2)it was wrong airport - at that time CO could only fly to LGW.

Either
1)buy bags of ice (these have been available for decades)

or 2)boil water and freeze. In fact boiling water freezes quicker then cold water.

You wouldn't be. The club is the one that should be. Just like when they run out of oranges to make fresh squeezed OJ. They send an employee out to buy what is needed.

True, true. Next time! I only had time for one drink though, and warm or not I didn't want to pour it out even if it was free. \_(ツ)_/

That's simply the most forgiveable offense in the made-up quote I posted.

I remember when I was younger and recently had my wisdom teeth out I couldn't tolerate even room temperature liquids, everything had to be at least body temperature.

Being stupid, I decided to accept my friend's offer of Belvedere shots. Of course they had to be warmed up, so we did mine in the microwave. Naturally having no idea how long to microwave shots of vodka for, I way overdid it.

Hot vodka is one of the more, ahem, memorable drinks I've had. I'm surprised it stayed down honestly.
