Sad way to go out. I was all "Stay with the pack! Don't try to make skeezy connections without a safety team with you!" -- my roommate can attest I actually said this.
You got fired, and you still hang around here like a big loser. Why can't he?

I will say that I enjoyed all the airport intrigue. Everybody was hustling trying to get on the best flights possible. These teams came to play.

With one key exception - when the handful of teams sat there and waited for the desk to open to get on standby, and acted like it was some kind of outrage when the baseball chicks went and found someone who could.
Made me like them a whole lot better, and the others a whole lot less.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I do think it was great to see airline/flight shenanigans on the show, and not just have everyone on the same one or two flights.
On The Voice, I am enjoying the hell out of these battles!

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I love that airport drama is back! I've missed it these past few seasons.

You know, the "helpful" travel agent managed to screw Chester & Ephraim over twice (meaning well, of course) because not only did she lose them the first, best flight, but then she contacted them with the skeezy three-connection route. So, if they'd joined the pack with the second-best flights, they'd have been in a competitive situation.

Watching Top Chef NOLA - I had to laugh when local chef Justin mentioned losing to Commander's chef Tory McPhail in this year's Southern Chef James Beard Award, because I know one of his sous chefs who said that he was incensed at losing and would scream at every mistake made by saying that's why he lost to McPhail.

I know that my beloved kale with bacon and an egg on top is like the epitome of 2012 food, but I still fucking love it!!
