Wondering if a travel agent is with an MLM? "Why not do what I do?" is a dead giveaway. I was a construction PM before I did this job. It's hard. People spending thousands of $ don't deserve someone who is only in it for the discounts and recruiting. Discounts are meant to help you help clients.

Proposal: instead of giving ChatGPT tens of billions of dollars to fail to create artificial intelligence, give me, an Actual Intelligence, a mere $10 million and I will gladly do a spreadsheet wrong for you from time to time for a modest fee.

Younger end of GenX here and I was 17 in 1996. I was definitely getting my brain cooked by terrible movies into my early 20s.

The more we are discussing this, the more the "too hot to be bad" theme emerges. Christian Slater in Heathers, Brad Pitt in Fight Club, and my own personal favorite, Michael Wincott in everything.

I'm so happy I finally got some of my major horror fan friends down here for Halloween Horror Nights this year. Universal does Halloween like no one else, Did you know every year they destroy the houses and start over the next year? (Yes that means you probably don't have another shot at FNAF!)

If I had explain American history in one sentence, I could do worse than "John Brown was hung for treason, but Robert E. Lee was not."

I was giving my kids a random rant about how there's a popular imagery of predator animals as being tough, noble warriors but in nature they go after easy prey, weak and injured animals, babies, which makes sense for animals because they're just looking for dinner. Nothing for humans to be proud of

I challenged myself to eat somewhere I've never eaten before at Universal Orlando, since I'm here for training. Bumblebee Man's Taco Truck is a great value for theme park food! It did remind me I hate how messy tacos are. πŸ˜…

For the record, I hate staying at cheap resorts bc of all the kids running in the halls. Last night a family had 3 kids under 7 screaming in the elevator lobby at 11:30 pm

One of my new screaming questions for potential clients is going to be. "How do you feel about kids running in the hallways in a hotel?" This is both a budgetary question and a personality quiz.

This is Dumbo, Mela, Peaches, and Chiquis. They are a championship napping team. Their built-in sleep masks give them that competitive edge. 13/10 for all (TT: brokeboilopez)

Here's the thing about Disney Adults. A fair chunk are neurospicy, OBVIOUSLY. Walt Disney World in particular is 42 square miles of predictable, safe, & clean resorts and theme parks, and has buses, trains, boats, monorails, and a skyliner. What is so hard to understand? 🀣

I really love Animal Kingdom Lodge and have stayed there many times. But this particular spot is one of the hidden fireplaces at Wilderness Lodge!

It's so weird when I see people be so freaking hostile about Disney adults. It just tells me that you don't know or care what exists here but you'll "yuck" it anyway.

Enjoying my favorite spot at Walt Disney World tonight. I have been mad at them from afar for changes to disability access, but tonight I feel like an angry child who ran away from home. There are so many ways to enjoy this place without Park tickets.

Its so weird to pop into FB and be instantly full of rage, and then come over here to see Wil Wheaton has discovered musical theater and Scalzi is having a really interesting convo about sci fi books tonight. I should just stay here all the time.

Did people really memorize phone numbers before cell phones, or is that just a movie thing?
2? Questions
I was watching some old shows from the 90s and noticed people would just dial numbers from memory - like they'd call their friends or family without looking anything up.
Made me wonder if that was actually normal back then? Did people genuinely have all their important numbers memorized, or did most folks keep a little address book or written list nearby?

If anyone needs me I will be in the museum, lying down next to the bog bodies.
