• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

Murphy Laws for Frequent Flyers

I've experienced at least 4 of these: #2, #3, #6 and #8

1. No flight ever leaves on time unless you are running late and need the delay to make the flight.

2. If you are running late for a flight, it will depart from the farthest gate within the terminal.

3. If you arrive very early for a flight, it inevitably will be delayed.

4. Flights never leave from Gate #1 at any terminal in the world.

5. If you must work on your flight, you will experience turbulence as soon as you touch pen to paper.

6. If you are assigned a middle seat, you can determine who has the seats on the aisle and the window while you are still in the boarding area. Just look for the two largest passengers.

7. Only passengers seated in window seats ever have to get up to go to the lavatory.

8. The crying baby on board your flight is always seated next to you.

9. The best-looking woman on your flight is never seated next to you.

10. The less carry-on luggage space available on an aircraft, the more carry-on luggage passengers will bring aboard.

 
11. The closer to Christmas the more drunks there are returning to the "Mother" land.

12. The nearer the tailplane you sit the worse the coffee.

OT: I've got some for technology/computers:

1. If builders built buildings the way programmers wrote programs, then the first woodpecker that came along would destroy civilization.

2. Any given program, when running, is obsolete.

3. Make it possible for programmers to write programs in English...and programmers won't be able to write them in English.

4. The attention span of a computer is only as long as its electrical cord.

5. Invent a system that even a fool can use and only a fool will want to use it.

6. Logic is a systematic method of coming to the wrong conclusion with confidence.

7. The attention span of a computer is only as long as it electrical cord.

8. A computer makes as many mistakes in two seconds as 20 men working 20 years make.

9. A complex system that works is invariably found to have evolved from a simple system that works.

10. If it's not in the computer, it doesn't exist.

11. Any instrument when dropped will roll into the least accessible corner.

12. Standard parts....aren't.

13. Interchangeable tapes....don't.
