Adulting annoys me lately too. Puerto Adventures in 2 months can’t come fast enough. And their 30 minute check in with 0 people in line boggles my mind.

They used to block our clinic schedules for a half day when we got back from vacation--no patients--so we could catch up with our messages.
Then they gave us laptops and we were expected to catch up while we were off. That was supposed to make our lives easier. Also making our lives easier--instead of having to stay late to catch up on messages, now we could catch up at home. Gee, thanks.
Bibles of truth right there. Vacation makes me hate leaving vacation to the extent my wife and I go through what we call “re-entry is hard” and “vacation hangover”.
100%. This was clearly not the first time this lady had pulled this stunt. She was waaaay too settled in (in the most spacious bulkhead seat) with her 5 course meal all over her lap, tray and armrest. We boarded with status too (thanks to my wife) ahead of all but a few non-1st fliers, so she had to get on super early to get her pick of the plane and claim it like a fucking squatter.
You handled the situation like a champ, Bmills. Anybody else with less restraint might've Mike Tyson'd her for that nonsense.
Isn't it interesting how only when we have the "GOOD" seats reserved that people just oh so happen to make these sorts of "innocent" mistakes. Funny how that NEVER happens to us when we have a middle seat toward the back of the plane. Hmmm....

i sat (sort of sat, i was only halfway on the seat) next to a morbidly obese lady with a shitting corgi last year.
much more interesting and less tortuous was the flight this january when i had to subdue a violently drunk passenger sitting across the aisle from me when he got into it with the flamboyantly gay flight attendant. hilarity. not so hilarious was the ensuing hours long diversion in amarillo while the fbi came onboard and dicked around and took the guy away. then we ended up having to go back to dallas because the crew timed out and had to wait a few hours for their replacements.

Counterpoint. Fried chicken is delicious, and Popeyes makes it well. But don’t just take my word for it:
https://www.vice.com/en/article/the-...fried-chicken/
anyone saying popeyes is good is basically saying they've never had bojangles.
Here we go.
Fried chicken is fantastic; no argument there.
The Popeyes-KFC-Bojangles (pronounced Bo-HAN-ga-less)-CFA- Popeyes-Zaxbys debate is a robust one.
All I know is if I'm not intentionally seeking out a bucket to share with others, I'm getting the fried chicken brined in dill pickle juice with waffle fries and the best (unsweet) iced tea in the land - CFA - every damned time.
Pretty sure I’ve had Bojangles.
Kenji Lopez-Alt (now at NYT) quoted in that article has definitely had Bojangles and picks Popeyes.

Perhaps, but the debate doesn't matter much with the pathetic dining hours going on over at ATL. I can't tell you how many times I've been screwed out of dinner there when having an evening layover there and everything's either closed, in the process of closing, and if it's not closed (yet), the line's a mile long and the service slow as frozen molasses. ESPECIALLY at the Popeye's there. Last time I tried that, they were pretty much completely out of food by the time I got to order, and gave up.
Annoying because pre-pandemic I don't think was as much of an issue, but ever since, ATL hasn't quite been the same. For being the world's busiest airport, you'd think the restaurants there wouldn't keep bankers hours.
Huh, that's odd to hear MF, but then again I'm never there waiting around late night unless its a red eye and everything in Int'l Terminal is open late.
The mass of people waiting around that Popeyes is enough to make me never go there too. There will be a crowd of people around CFA too, but those MF'ers are turning that shit out with a smile and quick too.
Had KFC on a whim the other day. Biscuits were pretty good. Extra crispy chicken was just kinda crispy and made a huge mess..
...and blessings shall shower upon all the vegan-tarians...

No cole slaw??? Fried chicken better damn well come with cole slaw.
Hey KFC... where did the chicken go? It's under all that crusty crispy stuff I'm sure, but I'm havin trouble finding it.
There are as many indy chicken joints as there are pizza and wok places on the ec if you know where to look.
No panko or other bs fillers... just egg batter with a bit of seasoned flour quick fried to a golden brown with the juicy chicken still hermetically trapped under the skin.
So it squirts on the first bite
Those are the same people who make every social media post look like every part of their life is amazing, but they are secretly miserable, stressed out and insecure.
I'm like you, I max out my vacation. Rest and recovery is what the first few days back at work are for.
Truth. There’s a handful of mom and pop places around here that are so damned good it’s a once a year treat cause I know if I had any more of that juicy fried chicken, overnight soaked in buttermilk, seasoned to perfection, I’ll need a Lipitor script and a treadmill.
I ate all-you-can-eat fried chicken at the Slogar in CB one time right before I had a blood test. Let's just say, my LDLs were not within the parameters of what the medical community considers "healthy". Nerds!
miss their pot pies
I don't like fried chicken no matter who makes it, but KFC's cole slaw is my benchmark.
It's been a long time but imo there are 2 times that call for Popeyes. 1st is after a long day of drinking in the city and you need some fried chicken to soak up the 7 eleven booze cup you made for the last train home. Also if you are doing shady shit on the south side and you need to score coke/weed and the Popeyes with the bars and bulletproof windows is the likely spot.
Also church's chicken is mo better.
