GM's thread about nothing (47 Viewers)

PSA - if you have a credit card that you've recently cancelled or reported stolen, you can use it to drink for free on a plane. It's pretty obvious in retrospect, but all the machine does is read the strip. It can't actually authorize the charge and apparently, they don't do anything like tie rejected charges to passengers. They just let it go.

Why can't it authorize? This isn't 1980 any more.

I suppose the premise is the charge can't be transmitted to a bank at 40K feet unless they really want to go out of their way to start doing it.

I've heard prepaid credit cards that have expired or have $0 funds also can work for "buying" drinks. Not sure about newer planes that have an internet connection.

This would work as well. I'm also not sure about the internet connected planes, but I'd be willing to bet they haven't tied those together yet either. It's probably not a big enough issue to replace equipment over.

there's been so much hardship in this thread recently! in order to try to turn the karma around, i'm willing to put myself at the mercy of this thread.i've got a couple things coming up that the FFA could help shape...a. my 'friend with benefits' will apparently allow me to take pictures of her doing absolutely anything, as long as her face isn't in them. i'm not sure when i'll see her again, but i'll take suggestions. if you want to see any of her previous work and haven't yet, send me a PM and a way to send them to you (email or text) and i'll send along.
Wow man. Don't you feel kind of bad for this?
I sorta do. It's not my usual MO, but she seems to get off on it. After this last time, she asked me what my buddy said about it and was amused and proud of the general response. If I was sneaking around and not open with it, then I'd feel like a bit more of a sleaze bag. If she gets up set or asks me to stop, I will, no questions asked. Every pic that has been shared has been done so with the knowledge of the woman involved that it would be happening :shrug:Way to bring my conscience into this :kicksrock:
 
This is less than a mile from my house & I walk by here every day.

ETA Just occured to me that I heard the gun shot. It is so freaking quiet out here that anything usual really stands out. I remember thinking it was pretty odd to only hear 1 gun shot. I would think if somebody was shooting guns there would be more.

Of course I was pretty wasted at the time. I thought I texted HJS last night but this morning it appears I sent it to a random number. :mellow:
that's pretty close to where I am now (work in O'Fallon).

 
I know Tanner hates it when we bring baseball into this thread, but if you have a few minutes and feel like watching an epic manager ejection/fit, check this out! :lmao: :lmao: :lmao:
Oh this stuff is perfectly acceptable. Fights, manager ejections/spitting on ups, hillbilly father-son teams attacking Tommy Lasorda, Nolan Ryan beating up Jesse Ventura etc is all good.ETA: I've actually seen this. Pretty sure it was 2 years ago, Mr. Lardner.

When are you coming over for a beer or 30?that's pretty close to where I am now (work in O'Fallon).
 
Pack, I don't know anything about the process, so I have no real world advice. I don't know why you'd go to jail, but understand the stress you are under. I would think that there has to be a way to sort all this out, but it just might have to take some time. All I got. Good luck, man.
Thanks GM.
 
Anybody shocked to see who started a Red Hot Chilli Peppers thread today? Me neither.
:lmao: I saw them live on the Mother's Milk tour and they were good. 2 years later I don't think would have gone to one of their concerts if it was free.
For some reason, our "Alternative Rock" station (yes, I still listen to car radio, tech dorks) which normally plays pretty good and newish music, feels a need to play a heavy dose of their very worst and most obnoxious songs. I cannot believe I ever even once thought "Give it away now" was a good song.

I hope you don't go to jail, but if you do I hope you have wi-fi access and post from your cell or in the "yard". Could be some interesting stories.Seriously, though good luck and I hope it all works out for you.

Yeah that is a terrible song. I think the first thing I heard off of "Blood, Sugar" was "Breaking the Girl" which I really liked. Then I heard "Give it Away". Pretty sure that was it.
 
Strike Trey I am out..enough of that thread. Lets get to some some important questions.

Anybody had an animal stuck in their furnace? Sounds like something is moving around the duct downstairs.

More weird kids:

Today in History was "Julius and Ethel Rosenberg convicted." Now I knew none of my students would have any idea who they were. But I did ask if anyone knew what espionage was. This one total airhead girl says "Is it worshiping the devil?"

Another kid reads what's on the board before class aloud "Julius and Ethel Rosenberg...that's Bonnie and Clyde, Right?"

Great album, Give it Away is the weakest link

You think you can change that to "What I'd like, is I'd like to hug and kiss you"?

Usually, they are not actually in your ducts, just running on or alongside them.
 
So Woz is giving a $20k ring to a girl he's only know a couple of months because her father told him he better give her a rock as nice as the ones her sisters got?

This is going to work out well.

You don't read very well and your notebook is inaccurate.

In...also I have a number of guys in the baseball forum that would probably do this since I'm not doing mine this year.
 
Feel bad for my son, he had to get one of those expanders put up in the roof of his mouth today. He was pretty bummed about it until I told him that makes him a cyborg like General Grievous, which he was pretty pumped about.

Just a little concnerned, though. He's had to overcome some speech issues and is still working on them, now he's got this to make things worse.
