My Brussels Airport Rant

[Dim Bulb]

It's basically a casino for shoppers. They wind you through all these duty free shops just to get to the gate. And all the gawking freaking women sauntering from one store to the next like they've never seen a Hugo Boss or a Godiva chocolate store. Pain in the ass.

The second leg of Dimmy's world tour has begun and boy am I in a lousy sleep deprived mood.

[Dim Bulb]

Oh God. Now I'm at the gate sitting next to a yahoo and his wife. The guy is telling his wife/girlfriend about the Yankees second round draft pick and how the Yankees are doing. I am pretending I'm French and avoiding eye contact.

Edited to add: it got worse. Then he started explaining to his dumpy disinterested wife who Bryce Harper is and how young and good he is. Before I could start to scream she insisted they go and eat something. Thank God.

Forget the horror stories about your fellow travelers

We want to hear about the sprouts. Are they really that fresh?

Also Bryce Harper is a pretty good hitter, but other than that he's just another DC blowjob.

waiting for flight to SH. Much more civilized. Gonna fly on one of those monstrous beast A380s to SH. Guy just told me that the fuel they put on board weighs more than an entire 747. Oh yeah I really understand the flight dynamics of that whale.

Dinner, in typical European fashion...

...lasted 4 1/2 hours, and all I could do was marvel at this chick. Now I'm in Shanghai surrounded by Asians, some of whom must be resbos. IG would be swimming in it here.
