I flew out of Boston Logan on the Friday before 9/11. Back then every airport had different security contractors. Checkpoint security was super chill. I was in 1st class that afternoon. We had steak, complete with a big ass steak knife. Saw the silhouette of the twin towers above the skyline.

Yup! Better food, better drinks, lots of friendly staff and you might just get to see a live jazz band.

This won't be a popular reply, but I've been flying for nearly 40 years, and I think much about what makes it suck these days are the people seemingly determined to make it as miserable as possible so they can tell everyone how miserable it was. Tell them about the old airports, Tom!

Same, same. Baldur's Gate 3 either, but I just heard about a bunch of Fallout 4 content I haven't played yet and I'm STOKED!

That was probably the best ‘snark’ I have witnessed. Ever.

Sorry to yell, but…
HE’S BEEN TELLING US THE WHOLE TIME, PEOPLE.

Maybe read the whole piece when you read Mr. Nichols’ work (I always called my professors ‘Mr’), not just through the paragraph that pisses you off.

And the soundtracks! There was always a 'vibe' with the music.

I like it, too. Sums up how I feel - I’ve read too much history to be fooled about the ‘good old days’? And no, growing up on a dirt road pushing a shitty mower all summer, with 3 TV channels that I had to go outside and turn the antenna to catch, was not ‘better times’. It sucked.

You make good points. One of the leaders of our company (ESOP) often goes into a "things are better than they have ever been before" talk, and his arguments are always right on. When someone does start to make a counter point, he says "imminent thermonuclear war...". It always inspires a pause...

They just said “nevah gonna get it, nevah gonna get it…”. His pay package terms will never be met. The whole thing is just narcissistic candy.

“Captured the one title…”. No wonder we’re so screwed up as a society. I knew it was scripted baloney when I was 9, but sure…

So All You Are Saying Is... - I think that's what Lennon meant by 'This ism That ism...'

Ok, hear me out!... 'AGENTIC Tom Nichols!' We just need you to talk to this LLM for a couple of weeks... you'll be able to put your feet up and watch ROBO Tom slay! 😀
