Going through some of the model train stuff. Happy to see as a former BNSF employee that grandpa had good taste in class I railroads

Grandma’s been doing some downsizing and decided that I should inherit my grandpa’s model train stuff because we both worked on/played with it when I was a kid. I haven’t seen this stuff in 30 years. I’m gonna need a bigger place XD

Friend's FB post: "Most people have a guardian angel. I have a coyote with a lighter saying "Trust me, this is gonna be awesome!" Me: >.>

I dunno if it's a good thing that some of the staff at the local gas station/liquor store know my "order" by heart. XD

Like I'll walk in to pay for gas and he'll be like "You need some hooch to go with that?" And points at my preferred poison. I mean it's a tiny town and I'm a regular, but still XD

Lesse how can I word this... I know it might come as a shock, but not all military aircraft broadcast on transponder modes that will be picked up by FlightAware etc.

ATC: "I'm gonna need you to turn right zero-two-zero for uh, noise abatement." Pilot: "Noise abatement, we're at FL350?" ATC: "Yeah, midairs are pretty loud sir."

🎵I'm done hidin' now I'm shinin' like I'm born to be Waited so long to break these walls down To wake up and feel like me🎵

🎵You can't start a fire, you can't start a fire without a spark, This gun's for hire, even if we're just dancing in the dark.🎵

MFW I submit a commission to a client and I'm awaiting their response to see if they liked it or not.

'Mayday' Was a good movie but my one point of contention is: Dude you're in an SR-71. You can literally just push to mil power and outrun/outclimb a Fulcrum. A Foxbat might be tricker cuz they were designed to fly fast and high, but that was definitely a MiG-29

The "terror dogs" from Ghostbusters. For a time my parents had to confirm that my bedroom was clear before I'd go in there at night just in case one was waiting for me like it was in Tulley's apartment.

In honor of scary media month: what is the first piece of media you remember truly frightening you as a child?

I really wish more recipes would give their measurements in Metric. The fuck am I supposed to do with "3/8" or "1/6" cup"?

FO indicated that he didn't know what Airwolf was and I think I have to put him on the do not pair list now.

Civilians explaining the military to Veterans in the comments is my favorite genre of comedy, particularly where aviation is concerned.

Instructor referred to the Huey as "The Hueybago" (as in Winnebago) and I can't get that out of my head. XD

Was reading a story on that other site and it reminded me of the time I spotted another pilot from my company at the MFF hotel. We both did the customary "head nod" followed by a mutual look of "wait, what the fk are you doing here?"

I try not to judge other people until the investigation runs its course, but if you get a "sink rate" and "500" at the same time, the aircraft isn't fully configured and stable, it's time to go around. Lotta things don't make sense here.

WHY DOES MY PRINTER NEED YELLOW INK TO PRINT BLACK. IT WON'T PRINT PROPERLY BECAUSE IT NEEDS YELLOW INK BUT I JUST NEED TO PRINT BLACK AND WHITE THINGS.

I guess one thing about my flying career being over with is that I made it through without being the subject of a Captain Steve or Mentour Pilot video. 👍

More than anything, I hope that we just love. Like Dolly loved. Remember when she said we can afford the price of peace. Because it's just love. Love is all it costs. So more than anything, I hope we all love, like Dolly loved. Because her love alone made the world a better place.
