Airport Bars

[BrickTop]

Honestly do much of my ms paint whilst traveling. Also have caught many folks glancing over to my screen during frenetic $#@!-drawing. I wonder what they must think. "guy has a cartoon $#@! fetish, hmm."

This here is what we call inspirational. More tits, less $#@!s....you know...in a classy type of way.

They should have a board next to arrivals and departures that lists all the shaggy posters and the bar they are in.

[CaptainEd]

bwi, w 8/10 6-8 pm est. i'm assuming terminal a or b. that probably means phillips seafood at the bar, obrycki's, or vino volo. btw, if you guys aren't using "gateguru" it's a great free app that lists restaurants, bars, airline clubs, etc by airport and by terminal within airport. hopefully i'm wrong, but the 10 day forecast (i start out in albany) is showing that my layover could be forced into the "longer than you expected" category.

[Gardner Barnes]

Awkward conversations? Check
Dad Jeans? Check
Fat chicks at the bar? Check
Hands in pockets? Check
Michelob ultra? Check


....must be traveling again.

[Gardner Barnes]

Hai guys! Can't wait for dinner at Chilis! That was a craaaaaazy kickoff meeting today. Give me more of this snackmix!

[Gardner Barnes]

We are so gonna party tonight! Can't wait OMG!!?!!?!?!?!!!111

[Gardner Barnes]

"the guys on our sales team are so crazy! It makes me wet."

"I know. I have fat arms".

[vtaenz]

Lot of anger behind that lens.

[Gardner Barnes]

That, and scotch.

[al pastor]

Cutty Sark?

[CaptainEd]

At BWI for the next couple hours.

Men should not fly in shorts. Unless they are going to Hawaii.

the hell?? I do it all the time when flying long distance... cargo shorts and a long sleeve t-shirt.. that maximizes comfort.

[texasdago]

Funny... I've always felt that way too. Just more comfortable in jeans/pants and crap doesn't fall out of my pockets. Of course, ldogg carries extra dulce de leche in his cargo shorts so...

[TheCruiser]

I just can't imagine, having the back of my knees up against that human-bacteria frappuccino they call an airline seat for 4 hours. You get staph infections that way. I'm not saying you have to wear a suit on the plane, but it's nice not to sit next to somebody who looks like they were in the middle of changing their car's oil when they decided to fly to LAX.

[TOR]

As filthy as planes are I'd wear a MOPP suit if I could. No way I'm wearing shorts.

[huge]

youre a morp

[TOR]

YOUR MOM'S A MORP!!!!111!!!

Beyond that, if that plane goes down and there's a fire, I want long pants on, thank you very much.

[Brisketexan]

Yes. Of course. Because in most plane crashes, it's a painful sight as the docker-clad survivors gather at the terminal, while the bodies of the shorts-wearing dead stack up like cordwood.

[skipperj]

I thought this thread was about airport drinking, not some sort of weird aversion to shorts on a motha $#@!in' plane.

[al pastor]

i'm generally in jeans, but worrying about airport germs is bubble boy nancy-talk. dirty = immunity.

[TheCruiser]

yeah, getting the flu or staph infection is so damn manly. Dressing like a real man, like our fathers would have dressed, on a plane...that's not nancy-talk. That's acting like a man. Men don't wear cargo shorts on planes. Men should wear business casual, 'cause time was when my dad flew on a plane...he was going to close some business, catch some fish, or $#@! some strange. Not high-five his friends over aluminum miller lites at the T2 Chili's while on their way to a fantasy football draft.

[Ted Lange]

If your gonna dress biz casual, then don't $#@!ing wear jeans, unless you are a cowboy.

[al pastor]

na, men just whine about staph infections as their reasoning to dress like a "man." all while in suit, tie, powdered wig, and top hat.

[Ted Lange]

Don't forget the monocle!

[AUinAustin]

Always wear long pants and shirt - not exactly because of this but also because you never know what temp they will set - Qantas believes a frozen passenger is a happy one. Fifteen hours in their icebox even with long sleeves sucked.

[Ted Lange]

I generally rent a tux for any flight over 27 minutes. Any s$#@! not in black tie should be banished to riding Greyhound.

[GSU&UT]

Well I'm always $#@!ing hot unless it's January, so you bet my ass will be wearing shorts on a flight.

[skipperj]

Who the $#@! has ever gotten flu or staph infection from wearing shorts on a plane. Even cargo shorts don't have that kind of infection.

I am now thinking Cruiser is $#@!ing with us.

[vanilla]

i fell asleep with my face up against the window and woke up with face aids. wish i had read this thread beforehand.

I stand by this philosophy. Not so much because of getting sick on a plane, it's simply a statement about the state of men in this nation. You dress for the chick you're gonna $#@! when you touch down in Miami, not the chick you made the mistake of $#@!ing at the Columbus Ramada Inn before takeoff.

[skipperj]

Yeah. The chick that may yet $#@! me tonight (we'll see in a bit) when I landed in Austin today would tell me I'm crazy if I showed up in 100+ heat wearing jeans or pants when I had the option to wear shorts.

(Unlike your dad, I'm not closing business, catching fish, or chasing strange. Just workin' for a living and coming home to the family.)

[BearLakeHorn]

Nothing like drinking at the airport bar en route to a road football game....

[TornACL]

This thread is $#@!ing outstanding.

[GSU&UT]

Is it the '50s in TheCruiser's mind? Unless I were to meet someone very important right at the airport, I am not wearing "business casual."

[EuroHorn]

Yeah. The chick that may yet $#@! me tonight (we'll see in a bit) when I landed in Austin today would tell me I'm crazy if I showed up in 100+ heat wearing jeans or pants when I had the option to wear shorts.

This is more appropriate at 30k feet

false dichotomy, please share video of the MIA strange in NSAA though

[KaiserSoze]

'cause time was when my dad flew on a plane...

I'll be sure to also not use the internet, a cell phone, current medical technology, etc.

I gots me somz lederhosen. Dont hate.

[MNLonghorn10]

this thread got hella stupid. a staph infection? eat $#@!.

i wear shorts when i go south during the winter when its $#@!in 20 degrees outside, cause i know when i get off itll be 80+.

$#@! maybe a staph infection would be a good things and prevent me from going back home after vacay. im flyin naked now

[TheCruiser]

I'm all for comfort, just living a bit in the past and giving you guys some $#@!. Relax Barbara.

But stop and think about one thing. A little inverse proportion ratio. The crappier men dress on planes these days, the fatter and older the flight attendants seem to get. That can't be a coincidence.

[mycoxaphlopin]

I would wear shorts but it's too damn cold on the planes, and they don't give blankets away anymore.

[bozo_casanova]

Drinking leghumper hefeweizen at "home turf" in sky harbor. A drunk woman in very shorts and no ring showed us a "hilarious picture" of her sister who is getting married tonight and she laughed through rueful tears.

Blame the unions, not us schleps in cargo shorts.
