Just another reason United Airlines sucks

Friday, March 30th, 2007

First their automated baggage handler was a piece of shit, now their fully automated jetways are fucking up. Throw in the fact that I missed my connecting flight to Amsterdam because we had two separate airplanes with “mechanical” issues (see: Mechanic Slowdown?) and finally got into Chicago on a third plane about 6 hours late.

Use up your United miles soon, campers.

I already feel bad for my first child

Some people who work in an ad agency right near the brewery (we have 4 of those antiquated mega-agencies within a block of us) were eating lunch next to me.

Large Agency Guy 1: You know the paper they print dollar bills on?
Large Agency Guy 2: Yeah.
Large Agency Guy 1: It’s really durable.

Okay, a few observations.
1. Do you think they picked the paper based on its’ durability? Of course!
2. I’d take coins, they’re a little more durable. By almost an infinite percentage.
