Can I reiterate how effective this is? I'm going to see PVD tonight and I'm still limping around like a gimp. Fuck knows how I'm going to dance.

Ah very funny and intelligent. Haven't you already been suspended because of that once before? Talking about that, where are the mods when you need them?

It is difficult to convince someone who has experienced so many flight irregularities that this is unusual, but we would like you to know that our daily goal is to provide safe, dependable and professional service. Although we cannot change what you experienced, we hope that it will help you to know that our management team is working with all of our employees to determine how we can improve our overall service.

Pretty much what I expected, and pretty much the only thing they could do.

Not only is it advertising with jets of cascading water, but it also affords a short cut of about 20 steps. Therefore since the water fountain had two pros, and I was too drunk to think of any cons, naturally I jumped into the water fountain.
Knowing the nature of a muggy east coast night, I deem your action wholly rational. Next time I visit, I demand to be taken to the fountain.

Me too. I used to have "show users' signatures" to "off", but since it got all political and funny, I've had to change my ways.

The very fact that you call people excusing themselves with jobs and stuff "funny", proves my point about Sweden being the epitome of dullness.

Thank God those days are over.
I disagree with both of your definitions of alcoholics. To me, an alcoholic is someone who shows physical signs of discomfort when denied access to alcohol. I often drink one or two beers with my dinner, and I have some friends where we might just look at each other and go "let's get drunk", drink insane amounts of alcohol, and then pass out. So I would be an alcoholic by your definitions, but still I had no problems when I moved to the US and didn't have a sip for more than a month. If I had an addiction that wouldn't have been the case.
(Btw. I'm not saying that I have a healthy relationship with alcohol, only that the label alcoholic should be reserved to those who've really put in the extra effort and earned it. Sortof like the racist label shouldn't be used as liberally as it is today.)

Really, even tho some ppl seem to have problems to handle critisism, they shouldnt do that. Oh well, just my humble opionion.
I tend to agree with you that it appears to be a stupid intervention. I asked in the sig-thread if there had been an actual problem, but I was ignored by the mods. Anyone knows the answer to that?

Probably scrutinizing signatures.
Oh yeah, Jesus you guys went insane this week. It'll take me a long time to go through all those posts.

I dunno, it sounds to me like they didn't even really read your letter. This seems like a generic response, no specifics were mentioned.
Quiet pathetic.
