Lol ok, one padded cell with room for two. Lots of shaving equipment
and a couple of shelves.

Nowadays, it is a fairly common topic where plus sized individuals are
demanding that airlines increase their seat size. However, airlines
like Frontier would typically cram in the maximum amount of seats due
to their need for profitability. If they're fewer seats on an
aircraft, their flight tickets will be more expensive.
 
According to Buzzfeed, there are multiple difficult and often
challenging realities towards plus size individuals while traveling by
air. Furthermore, they witness how fellow passengers occasionally
voice their complaints about the inconvenience of having larger
bodies.
 
In addition to this, some flight attendants may unjustly judge them as
unfit to fly, resulting in sudden and unexpected removal from the
aircraft. Following that, they became acutely aware that some people
around them might exploit the situation by taking photographs or
filming videos. These videos would then make these fat travelers into
viral sensations.

Is it too much to ask that we be able to fit into the seat we've paid
for?

Dang! Why so much??
 
The last time I ordered checks (5 or 6 years ago??) the bank price was
ridiculous. I got online and ordered from one of those places I used to
see ads for in the coupon section of the newspaper when I subscribed
to a paper. Plain blue checks, nothing fancy at all and the total was less
than $10 and checks arrived within about 7-10 days.

My citi visa was hacked and account closed the same morning.
Glad I had a check.

I think I've written one check this year, maybe two, but my bank changed
names about 2-3 years ago. My checks still have the old bank name on
them as well! I *think* I've got two or three books of checks left and if
it bothers the new bank, then they can send replacements at their expense.

I always write cheques for city and federal taxes, that way I have a
paper trail. The only other time I write a cheque is to pay the lawn
guy or the window cleaner.

I don't even want to know what a paper trail is.

Awwwwww, come on. If someone or some company or government
agency says you didn't pay such and such bill, you have a canceled check
to prove you did pay.
 
It's just like dealing with someone or company online through e-mail. You
always reply with a BCC (blind carbon copy) back to yourself.

If I pay something, I'll do it online and the bank will have proof
that I did that.

I've never done that, but I have a Sent folder, of course.

I asked my artificially intelligent friend again and this time he or
she or neither came up with higher numbers. Percentage of vegans and
vegetarians combined:
Hawaii: 20.23%
California: 18.51%
Virginia: 17.91%
Texas: 6.49%
 
I think that the younger and more educated people are, the higher the
chance that they don't eat meat. It's slowly becoming a lower
socio-economic thing, like smoking.

It doesn't look very healthy, but if it doesn't taste burnt, that's
something.

No, it's not burned. When you smoke something for 12-18 hours then you can
come back and tell us how wrong you are.

It's the combination of the spices, smoke, and long and sloooooow
cooking that gives it that slightly charred look. Trust me, it has no
burnt taste.
 
Most barbecue rubs start off with paprika, chili powder, and a bit of
brown sugar. Those three will definitely give whatever you're smoking
a deep, almost burnt look. Whatever other spices you add to your rub
will depend on what flavors you like. They will add a bit of color as
well.
 
You've probably seen car or house fires with a layer of smoke damage
covering everything. You'll get that layer of smoke on the meat as well
and depending on what type of wood you use. It will impart a wonderful
flavor and not of burned upholstery or drywall.

Ok, I'll take your word for it. It's not burnt meat.

I know what you're saying but I don't agree. I see a good flame war
and someone says something I see as funny, it doesn't mean I'm
taking their side. In fact I would say my approach to humor is advanced
and worthy of applause, not ridicule. I can even disagree with the person
and give them an LOL if they say something I find funny. Same goes with
you. If you're arguing with someone - and if it's entertaining in some way -
and you say something I find funny, really funny (which is doubtful but could
happen), I will give you an LOL whether I agree with you or not. I think you
have been in some ways conditioned - not just you but most in today's
multi media world where politics and debate rule - conditioned to believe
that humor and politics are the same when clearly they are an oxymoron
when used at the same time.

Exactly. Very good, my pupil, very good indeed. There is
no limit to reasons to argue and fight. Bullying, same thing.
"Oh, nobody bullies anybody anymore", they say. Bullshit.
There will always be bullying and maybe there always should
be. Bullying or saying anything negative about certain groups
of people is verboten these days, but there are replacements
galore and there always will be. It absolutely makes me sick
when people of today think that they are superior to people of
the past simply because they are a part of today. Same goes
with the statue people. They want to tear down this or that
statue - that is fine with me. But they always want to replace
it with something else. They do the same with street names.
