I blame the cheese.

[steelworker]

What the hell, 15 days and nobody has anything to bitch about? Whats wrong with you people???

@steelworker I’m going to go out on a limb and blame the the no politics rule. A lot of people in the UK were probably upset about the England defeat and needed a rant, but comments like «How did he miss that shot»? And «Stop it with your head, not your ear», could have been misconstrued.

@neph93 that almost reminds me of
“ Some people think football is a matter of life and death. I assure you, it's much more serious than that” in the context for the non posting in this thread

A lot of people in the UK were probably over the moon about the England defeat

@Tago-Mago Oh yes. My family included. This is regarding Rugby, and from a specifically Welsh perspective, but illustrates the sentiment nicely.

[EdH]

I've always regarded myself as English but did 23&Me recently and found out that the British half of my genes are all Welsh. Who should I support?

[neph93]

@EdH anyone you like mate, (except the English).

[Tago Mago]

@EdH if you choose to support Wales you will rarely have to go through the pain of losing a Euro final. Or a Euro match for that matter

[EdH]

@Tago-Mago My boundless enthusiasm for team sports has never led me to feel anything about football either way thus far!

[Tago Mago]

@EdH Lucky you

[mclaincausey]

As a mutt, I can choose from among German, English, Scots-Irish, or American redneck heritages according to which way the wind blows.

If only citizenship were so fluid…

[EdH]

@mclaincausey Just means that you have all the more teams to support. Good for you!

This week was supposed to be fucking awesome. I was selected as 1 of 10 food industry professionals for an all expenses paid trip to Lynden, WA (outside of Seattle) for a Raspberry harvest tour. The itinerary included dinners at farms and wineries, plant and farm tours, and a ton of other cool shit. I awoke bags packed at 5:00am to a flight cancellation with no options to rebook. Trip cancelled

I called the owner of my business and he is currently driving 12 hours home from Ohio due to a cancelled flight of his own.

What a mess the U.S. flight industry is going through.

Oh damn that’s some bullshit. Was it weather?

[popvulture]

Oh wait no, looks like probably because of that bad security patch that went out last week. What a shitshow.

[Alex]

Yeah, I just flew to LA and back from JFK, out on Friday, back last night. Friday was delayed 2hours, Yesterday was delayed 4.5hours. Mayhem in the airports still

[chrisjohnnick]

Man, sorry to hear that. My wife has a flight this coming weekend, so I guess we'll just be open to whatever comes our way.
