I've been places in the states where even airports won't give you a beer before noon. Damn Puritans, ruining things for 250 years.

[-] Anticorp@lemmy.world 47 points 9 months ago

I think you're legally allowed to kick people in the crotch in that scenario.

[-] ChicoSuave@lemmy.world 19 points 9 months ago

Yes, violence is great at convincing people to give you alcohol!

[-] Anticorp@lemmy.world 16 points 9 months ago

Violence is the one true power, from which all other power is derived.

I was in an airport in NY from 5am-6am, and they didn't serve alcohol during that hour. It was awful, and I had to wait!

I like arriving 6 hours early for a flight. I have time to drink beer and take a nap on the ground.

[-] AnUnusualRelic@lemmy.world 28 points 9 months ago

That's basic airport etiquette.

[-] pikachus_ghost_uncle@lemmy.world 24 points 9 months ago

Arrives on time. Flight is delayed for five hours. Welp hitting the bar I guess.

It's almost like if people understand why someone is doing something, they don't judge them! Maybe people should just stop judging people if they don't understand them!

It's almost like it turns any normal statement of fact into a sarcastic, condescending, passive-aggressive jibe for literally no reason at all

What is this, a festival starter pack?

[-] zalgotext@sh.itjust.works 20 points 9 months ago

There's public bathrooms at your festivals?

That's what the water bottle is for.

[-] captain_aggravated@sh.itjust.works 45 points 9 months ago

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

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

You mean it's NOT common practice to do all these things at Wal-Mart??

[-] Cracks_InTheWalls@sh.itjust.works 37 points 9 months ago

I don't know what it is, but aside from the side effects of nicotine addiction and access problems in these spaces(which, whatever, I get it), transportation hubs (airports, train stations, ferry terminals, etc.) are my favourite places to be.

[-] EfreetSK@lemmy.world 31 points 9 months ago

I have it the oposite way :( Especially the airports, they pressent themselves as this beautiful, clean location for happy traveling people. In reality it looks more like in the picture, people beeing on the edge of collapse, exhausted, living like shit

[-] Kusimulkku@lemm.ee 10 points 9 months ago

I've always felt like they just present themselves as transportation hubs and that's it. They're often very utilitarian and full of signage and whatnot. Remind me of other transport terminals.

[-] Anticorp@lemmy.world 16 points 9 months ago

Those little white nicotine pouches have solved my nicotine access issues while flying. I still hate that most airports completely did away with smoking areas though. I don't smoke, but I vape. It's pretty fucked up to put someone into an area that takes 4 hours to get into, and then not provide an area for their basic needs. Yes, I know nicotine isn't an actual need, but it's an addiction, and it feels like a need when you're addicted.

[-] ThirdWorldOrder@lemm.ee 8 points 9 months ago

Snuss. I’m about to board a plane in 14 hours and I have several cans ready. I’m a vaper too.

Having complete strangers photograph your underwear and then feel it for good measure. Espresso martini. Saying "I flew in from St Louis and BOY ARE MY ARMS TIRED".

[-] Inucune@lemmy.world 20 points 9 months ago

Are airports as a whole liminal spaces?

  • Drinking at 6am - Christmas Day.
  • Sleeping on floor - After night out smashed.
  • Brushing teeth in public bathroom - After getting smashed and sleeping on the floor, heading to work.
  • $10 Water - Never acceptable.
  • Pyjamas - You ever been in a council estate.

Drinking tomato juice (more related to the airplane). WTF! never seen it in vending machines, offered on tap, in fast food joints …

But 9/10 times someone in my hearing range orders a tomato juice to chillax and drink that sweet thick pseudo-ketchup.

[-] wesker@lemmy.sdf.org 10 points 9 months ago

Tomato juice has a considerable amount of sodium in it. I wonder if there's some sort of correlation?

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

Fuck not brushing your teeth regularly and having unbrushed teeth from lunch till night time.

I try to brush my teeth three times a day. Used to have regular issues, now I don't and my teeth are less yellow.

No brainer.

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.

[-] problematicPanther@lemmy.world 19 points 9 months ago

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

Since when are we not brushing our teeth in public bathrooms? Hell they've even got outlets so that you can shave!
