Unbelievable.

If only it really were unbelievable.

That’s sure a lot of flying for someone with aspirations to drive 2,000,000 miles.  But hey, why not buy the entourage holiday flights when you have $29,000 in liquid cash assets?

It's actually 26,000 now, car expenses hot me hard this year. But I rarely fly. My last flight was over 9 years ago. Charlotte was originally going to be a road trip but I changed my mind.

So, all this bouncing around on flights when a trip behind the wheel would have likely taken 10-12 hours to complete depending on when you left.  Had your flight gone to plan how much time would you really have been saving?  Seems like the easier thing to do would have been to get on the road before sunrise (weather permitting) to get out to I-81 and I-77.

Nah I don't get up early for road trips, but had it gone normally, I would have been there 3:55 ish whereas driving would have taken at least 9 hours. Add in a long half hour rest stop and it may have been 10 hours (I can only go about 6-7 hours of driving right now before needing food/bathroom..etc). My main point in going there wasn't for the driving, it was for riding Fury325.

1.  Epic statement from the young adult who must have some serious leverage on his parents to enjoy getting them to pay thousands of dollars to avoid a minor road trip inconvenience.

2.  Also, do we have a new challenger for title of “who can hold their pee the longest in the car?”

 GaryV in 'Aviation by MMM':

Some of the things suggested in this thread make me think the lady on the call-in radio show complaining about the placement of deer crossings was a genius.

Oh yes the famous Autocorrect that doesn’t know how to spell or use correct grammar, that is the Algorithm that needs twerking.

I see what you did there.

Just ran across this one:

I can accuse someone of being an illegitimate child who engages in sexual intercourse with their maternal parental unit and I can invite them to consume feces and assume room temperature, or call them a diety-cursed moron, without ever uttering a single curse word.

The answer, of course, is that...

John Madden is very fun name.

I'm surprised Sierra Mist is considered such a failure.  It's all over restaurant menus.

Maybe it's being discontinued because people would rather get it all over restaurant menus than drink it.

An ominous quote from "New Islands":

Quotas for how many people live on an arctic islands?  That sounds suspiciously like Gulags again.

This one reached "favorite" status about three separate times as I was reading it. I knew I had to post it here by the time I got to the end (I'm also 23, so that may be part of why I enjoyed it so much).

I just turned 23 in November. But if you count the womb time I may technically be 24 by now, not sure.
You're 23? WTF I thought you were 13! 23 year olds are full grown adults with jobs.

I probably found this more amusing than I should have:

Either Grand Booger Queen II or one Booger Queen from my former school. She is named Booger Queen Pajula.
