Movies Not To See When You Are Sick

Don't get me wrong, I'll have a drink on a plane - there's fuck all else to do most of the time - but getting on a plane after a full-blown session and sitting there for hours while the hangover creeps stealthily in is my idea of hell. And drinking enough to stave it off is impossible when you've already made yourself conspicuous to the staff by stumbling onto the plane. The last thing they want is another mad drunk taking a shit in the aisle and screaming for gin.
2. We were so fucking hungover that we got no argument from the flight crew when we told them that we qualified as "needing extra assistance getting on the plane." The woman at check-in was nice enough to find me a row to myself when I explained my hungover state, and one of our group was looking so bad that she was upgraded to bulkhead seating on sight, since there was more room and it was closer to the loo. I would have been happy to have been in a condition to drink all the way back to Houston, but the thought of more alcohol wasn't one that I could stomach for very long without worrying about heaving.

Flying hungover sucks.

I thought (back then) that she was gorgeous. The nipplage album cover probably had songs inside it, but I'll never know for sure.

Late to the show dude, Plated originated the clever renaming of posts trick. In the oldskooldaze. Middlings like you and slave wouldn't remember.

Why anyone would willingly brag about being here longer than anyone else is beyond me.

A buddy of mine claims the guy who did that lives down the street from him. I want to ask him for an interview. I think the guy's story would make a fantastic freelance piece. My friend refused to give me the name.

I've thought about chucking it into motion papers to describe some of the more pompous arseholes I deal with, but I'm hesitant to do so.
OOOOOOOOOOOOh. I had no idea what you were talking about. Is that what she says? Huh.

So, anyway, yes. It does mean a dance -- to the music I was referring to before. I think it's some French peasant dance or something (as well as the music to which such dance is set) -- akin to the word "waltz", if you will.

I am just now getting to the point where I can say "Sunny's Snot Rocket" out loud without laughing. I tried to explain this joke to Mrs. Weed the other night, but only wound up feeling even more alienated from the lives that normal people lead than I usually do.

Was yours "Happy Birthday," the remix?

Gerard Finnernan. Back in the day he lived in CT. Plated may have known him. And may know your buddy.

and it wasn't a shit in the aisle, it was atop the food cart. In First Class.
