Sitting in airports waiting for flights … sucks.
It surely does.

You are a sick sick woman.
I think my ear plumbing makes me a prime candidate to not like that sort of thing.

Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.
I just watched the latest (I think) OC, dubbed in German by some guy with a really thick accent who I am sure has an uncertain grasp on American idiom.
This is all the surreal I can take for one evening.
Note to self: bring own bottle. dcp said it. Do it!

Every airport waiting room on the planet is exactly like every other airport waiting room on the planet. Still, people find sufficient cultural differences to excuse wars. Why?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Some airport waiting rooms aren't set up to prevent you stretching out to sleep. They must rise up and kill the oppressive waiting rooms.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Because they got really, really cranky waiting around the airport. t /stillbitteraboutUSAirwaysChristmastravel

BWI has a nice observation lounge outside of security where people always sleep. Even has a climb on plane to exhaust little ones. I delay going to the gates as long as possible, because it is nice to sit there.
But yeah, all waiting rooms pretty much suck. Airports try sometimes (Minneapolis isn't bad except for the lack of a variety of food inside security) (or detroit's light show, which I've only seen while running to not miss my connection) but...lame, mostly.
Albuquerque did have a couple of classical mexican guitarists in the main lobby and comfy chairs where I zoned for a while. That was nice.

I can't even.
Calgary has the White Hats where you can arrange for your incoming guests to be warmly greeted and given a cowboy hat and they have a country and western band playing. With bonus Yee-haws and howdies.
Of course, this has a 98% chance of inciting me to commit an atrocity, but there must be people who like it.
