That describes pretty much my Monday

Anti_Face_Weapon,

Not going to lie, the 6:00 a.m. beer hits different.

Hailstorm8440,

The 10 dollar bottle of water is slowly becoming a thing outside of airports

@uis@lemmy.world avatar

Converted to roubles. That’s a lot of roubles. I can get 3.5 full lunches for this much.

Geriatrickid,

Flew last week and was surprised when all of the shops were reasonably priced

Airports do not, under any circumstances, want you to sit down. They hate people who sit down. You will NEVER find a chair or a bench in a modern airport. These places are for entering in a mad dash and leaving ASAP.

If you have a layover you can straight up get fucked. Pay $400 to use the AMEX Platinum Place To Sit Down Club, cram yourself onto the most uncomfortable bar seating imaginable at a restaurant that charges you $30 for lukewarm soup, or learn how to hover.

Tell me you’ve never been in a Centurion lounge without telling me you’ve never been in a Centurion lounge.

Walking around in Pyjamas seems acceptable in a airport & Ellesmere Port it seems

Brushing teeth in public bathrooms is common in Brazil, especially those of an office.

Entertainmeonly,

It’s funny. In America you never see it. I brush in the bathroom at work after lunch and everyone looks at me like I’m a mental patient. Like where else am I supposed to brush after lunch? Do people just not brush their teeth after every meal?

Mamertine,

Do people just not brush their teeth after every meal?

In the USA the norm is morning and evening. Twice a day. Only at home.

Across my life in corporate America, I’ve seen a few people doing it after lunch, but it’s very rare.

Treefox,

To be fair, yall don’t have fluoride in the water so you need to brush more often. (This is aimed at the Americans commenting)

MrFunnyMoustache,

That explains why a former coworker of mine, who is from Brazil, brushes his teeth at the bathrooms after lunch at work. I thought he must have had some special reason, but I never asked because I figured it would be too much of a personal question when we weren’t that close.

Atomic,

No… it’s not acceptable to sleep on the floor. And It’s not ok to walk around in pajamas.

Those people can go fuck themselves with Vaseline and sea-salt.

And seriously. You can just ask for some water at any bar or coffeeshop.

Carlo,

And seriously. You can just ask for some water at any bar or coffeeshop.

Maybe at American airports; I don’t remember the last time I tried. I do remember trying at the Frankfurt airport and being rudely disabused of the idea. May have been 10 euros for water—8, at least.

Atomic,

Frankfurt has water fountains all over. How you miss them is beyond me. But maybe you were there 20 years ago, what do I know.

Carlo,

I don’t doubt that there are—and were—water fountains around. It was in a cafe at the airport; I asked for a glass of water (to go with my sandwich or something, I don’t recall) and the woman actually said to me, “In Germany, we pay for our water!” So you can see why it would stick with me. This was ~10 years ago.

@runeko@programming.dev avatar

Disagree. I will wear my most comfortable clothes. I will sit wherever I want, which includes the floor. I will sleep if delayed, even 30 min. I will not judge others for anything they have to do to get through that nonsense.

Atomic,

Ofc you disagree, you’re an offender. You treat the airport as if it’s your own living-room with no disregard for other people or decorum.

Bet you chew with your mouth open too

onion,

Are you one of those people who demand cashiers to be standing?

Atomic,

Nope. Any other stupid questions?

problematicPanther,
@problematicPanther@lemmy.world avatar

we need to normalize walking around in pajamas in any and all locales.

Floshie,

so comfy

phoenixz,

Walk around in pyjamas, who cares? Oooohh, that person dresses different from how I like it, KILL ZHEM!

Sleeping on the floor? Been there. Wouldn’t have to if airport designs, you know, the places where people many times need to stay for an entire night, were not so hostile to sleeping anywhere. If those benches would allow a person to lay down when needed and nobody is around, it’d be so much nicer. That kind of also applies to cities and the homeless, but I digress.

And yeah, you can ask for some water.you have to eat there then, though, and can’t just get a nice big bottle that you need.

Airports generally suck

gmtom,

Oooohh, that person dresses different from how I like it, KILL ZHEM!

Jfc mate, chill out a bit.

Atomic,

Who’s talking about killing? Why are you escalating it?

And no. Just ask for water. You ndont HAVE to eat there.

What the hell lol, what exactly did he do?

mojofrododojo,

a hardcore rightwing republican got caught soliciting a gay sex bathroom hookup and then tired to play it off as if he was simply shitting with his legs so wide his feet went into the adjacent stalls.

Retrograde,
@Retrograde@lemmy.world avatar

Hah, classic republican antics.

doctorcrimson,

I bet Diogenes would pay the senate to let him live in an airport.

CodexArcanum,

Why would the Cynic pay for something, especially to the Senate?

doctorcrimson,

It’s a reference to the time Diogenes payed the senate to be able to live in a Market.

XTornado,

Mine has free water fountains but yeah…

I am fully on board with brushing your teeth in a public restroom. That is perfectly acceptable behavior.

phorq,

Unless you leave toothpaste in the sink, in which case you’re a monster!

SeabassDan,

That’s just people that do the same thing no matter where they are.

And009,

Awfully lot like Indian railway stations

We tolorate so much bullshit to get on a plane. Here in the US, we allow our buttholes to be fingered and our balls to be fondled for our “safety”

cybersandwich,

What airports are you going to??

(Seriously, asking for a friend)

EmperorHenry,
@EmperorHenry@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

do an image search for “tsa fail” and turn safe-search off

Prostate and testis exams are vital though ;p

EmperorHenry,
@EmperorHenry@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

Only if a real doctor is doing it. Not a power tripping idiot who failed the police academy.

And to fail the police academy here in the US is an impressive level of stupidity.

meanwhile europeans hopping on international sleeper trains (small hotels on wheels) without even having to show up an hour before departure

Olhonestjim,

Really? Which airports so I can avoid them? There are so many!

Emerald,

we allow our buttholes to be fingered and our balls to be fondled for our “safety”

what??

EmperorHenry,

do an image search for “TSA fail” with safe-search off

onion,

Imo the real damage to society was done not by terrorists but by the politicians who enacted counter terrorist laws

EmperorHenry, (edited )
@EmperorHenry@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

Who funded those groups? who put them up to what they did?

I’ll give you a hint, the people that did those things created a problem to sell a solution.

OceanSoap,

Be me, keep a toothbrush and toothpaste at work so I can brush my teeth after lunch in the employee restroom.

tiredofsametab,

A lot of Japan does this, actually.

CaptainHowdy,

Me too! Every morning after coffee. I work from home now, but I did this every day.

Cypher, (edited )

Hope you’re waiting around 15 minutes after finishing that coffee and having a drink/rinse with water before you brush, otherwise you risk damaging your enamel

Sunfoil,

I heard from dentists it was better to do it before eating or drinking anything, as you’ve coated your mouth in the good shit to protect it. But I guess it’s splitting hairs.

neutron,

I guess consistency is more important for overall dental health.

NigelFrobisher,

I’ve seen all of these in Wetherspoons.
