also height
i think it's 155 or 160 cm
my wife's cousin a smoke show got rejected because she is a shorty

They probably have to be able to put the luggage overhead.

Best Eva Air would be Singapore Airlines, I don’t have that kind of money pal.

Two best airlines I've ever flown are Singapore Airlines and Emirates.
Both times, in economy, I felt like I was in Business or 1st Class. The attention by the cabin crew, the food, the accessories provided, everything was great. Long flights, 10 or 11 hours or something.

Were the flight attendants hawt? Here in the USA, not so much.

Just in case Cebu is one of your stops, hook me up, drinks are on me.

Philippines FTW

These guys are absolute bums then. It is not hard to find ladies over there. They just might not be the ones they were hoping for. Looking for some dumb province gal they probably heard about on those types of videos, in Cebu City or Dumaguete...

A lot better thanks.

I have the painkillers circling quite beautifully in my bloodstream, but a bit of stretching also really helped my mobility, to a point.

Only thing is that I can't 100% stretch out my leg. It's almost like my kneecap is getting in the way. I can stand upright for a few seconds, but the pressure quickly becomes overwhelming, and I cannot place my foot flat on the floor. I can't place my foot on the floor when standing either, and not necessarily because of pain.

I spoke to my GP over the phone today. Basically gave me another round of painkillers and said continue with what I'm doing for another week, then if no improvement, call and go back to St Peters.

Glad it seems to be going the right direction, look after yourself.

May I ask (if it's not too nosey) what your medical issue with your leg(s) is? Surgical procedure? accident?
I have had leg surgery and metal in my leg years ago, am interested what your leg situ is. Regards

I have a blood clot in my left thigh near my knee, which affects the back of my knee and calf, that has caused me excruciating pain over the course of the last week and I can't seem to hyperextend it because of the swelling.

damn ok. Aside from localized pain and swelling bLood clots dangerous as they can break loose and travel thru veins and arteries to vital organs like brain / heart / lungs.
Am guessing you are on subcutaneous injections of Warfarin or similar blood thinner? I've had Warfarin before, post-leg surgery.

ps. sorry to hijack the thread for a minute or two...

I'm on Riveroabaxan, 20mg, for sixty days, one in the morning, then after a couple of months, two lots of Riveroabaxan 15mg, one in the morning, one in the evening.

San Pablo city

That’s definitely a requirement, every Asian airline I have flown has had tall skinny attractive flight attendants.

Problem isn’t really with them it’s cost cutting measures by the airlines while still charging more than an airline like United.


No im a very solid 5’10” 185

I know that, wouldn’t be a problem if they came out more than a couple times.

You are also in Laguna.
I live in nearby Nuvali.
If you run, bike or play golf, is known for its trails and nature spot.
If you are new to the area, Recommend nearby Tagatay for the scenery & mountains.

Beaches at Batangas are nice too.

Your girl will prolly drag you into the city & Ayala Glorietta/Greenbelt or Ortigas.

If you are in the city, High street in Bonifacio Global City/BGC & Greenbelt/Glorietta are good night spots.

Let me guess, you flew economy like a peasant?

Ain't nothing wrong with choosing from the menu before arriving at the restaurant. I have done this a couple times with great results. Although I did get ghosted on arrival in Davao once. But I ended up finding a super fun hottie at Gaisano mall that afternoon.

Ever fly first class? The massive price disparity makes it pointless. In his case it's the difference between $1,174 and $16,680. No reason to pay that much for a flight. Also I have ended up getting seated in first class quite a few times without even paying for it.

It was a joke, but yes I have. That is why you play the points game and learn to find great deals on biz/first class award flights. Now flying with a family of 4 it's very difficult to find deal for 4 seats unless you have extreme flexibility (aka home schooled kids) so I usually fly economy for international flights which I'm ok with. Also for long haul international flights with lie flat seats in biz/first the only way you will get a free upgrade is if it's standby, you have status with the airline or in rare cases AD military.

Just recently there was a bunch of deals in biz/first on ANA from U.S. to Tokyo RT for as low as 70k Amex points

Yep her parents and family live in San Pablo. We always go to Tagaytay I love it up there. Awesome to get to an elevation where you can see it raining in the distance.

Crazy even the McDonald’s there has that view off the back deck. Stopped at the zoo for second time in Tagaytay and it actually is pretty depressing. The tigers and lion look absolutely miserable.

Went to Batangas for a day and it was a great time. Getting a cabana and lunch is so cheap. Awesome beach and not crowded. Service like everywhere in the Philippines is top notch the only thing lacking severely is actually getting places like different islands like Boracay seems like an usually painful process.

Speaking of Boracay it was an incredibly beautiful and awesome experience. The only place I saw foreigners besides the malls around Manila.

We took a sunset boat tour out that only had 4 other people. Karaoke, food, drinks, traditional Filipino music with drums. You stop before the sunset and can snorkel, the kids and I loved that part. When my wife first told me about it I was thinking doesn’t seem like my vibe.

The crew absolutely killed it though so energetic and welcoming.

Technically I did meet her on the internet but she moved to the US when she was 14. Shes 41 now and we have been married 8 years.

Yes, I can’t imagine how wealthy you would have to be to fly anything else with 4 people.

That being said after completing the full trip, Asian airlines get high marks overall but they actually treat you like peasants in economy.

If you were forced into a Gladiator match against a Praying Mantis that weighed the same as you but you get to pick a sword of your choosing what sword would you choose?

The fucking DarkSaber bro.

 

[facePuncher7]

Sorry I had to do the math. A Praying Mantis stats are 3" tall and weigh 20 grams.

So say you weigh 180 pounds that's 81646 grams.View attachment 1041668

So since they're 3" tall in current form I took the 453 number and applied it to their height.

View attachment 1041669

Turns out a 180 pound Praying Mantis would be 114 feet tall. I suggest going for the legs.

You need to square it because you're trying to figure out mantis volume, not height.

The mantis isn't just growing vertically.
