Am I allowed to like both mhtaipei's report (I do love a b*tchy putdown or two, especially when nicely written, as these were) and BearX220's 'Trip Report Bile Content Analysis' (very funny indeed, even if you did leave out a few of his positives)?
Keep it up, both of you! Nice to see some entertaining banter in the Trip Report forum.

We South Africans love the Americans who come here. You make for good friends and are more than welcome in our country. Perhaps take a break from defending Taiwan from communist China and have some tea with us.
As for Buster whatever IT is, I think that you 2 biggots are completely meant for each other. We can all jump from the plane to ensure a comfortable and pleasant ride for the 2 of you. Oh my.

Thanks, Africa1. Mom always taught me that the definition of sophistication is the ability to get comfortable in any situation and get along with anyone. Snobbery and sophistication are two different things, I think.
So, mhtaipei, if you're reading your own thread... we appreciate your critical, grounded analysis of airline products and services... but ad hominem sneering starts to grate after awhile.
