up with some of the worst neck pain of my life. |
Yeah I don't envy tall people when it comes to plane sleep. (You're tall right Heady?).
I'm bang-on 6'0" and am just within the limit of being able to sleep without straining my neck or getting overly annoyed that i can't stretch
my legs or find a comfy spot to put my knees. It's very borderline, but sleep is possible.
A lot of the time I'll intentionally deprive myself of sleep the night before so that I can sleep on the plane. Usually works pretty well.

yeah 6'3" - i just dont fit into the seats well. Cant even really make it work if i have a spare seat next to me. usually just watch movies and hate
life on 8hr+ flights. I took sleeping tablets the first time i went to Europe and all that did was make me feel more shithouse but still awake haha.

If you want to try and get some sleep, the best thing to take is a supplement called Melatonin. It's available in Aus with a prescription or over the
counter in some developing countries. It doesn't leave you feeling as groggy as normal sleeping tablets.
That said, business class is also a pretty good way to get some sleep...

I can nap ANYWHERE. A few years ago on a project it was a four hour drive from the airport to work on a gravel road, in a bus, with boring cunts, so I
pretty much learnt how to sleep in those conditions. It now means that I can nap on planes, in cars, in trucks (while driving aha), front seat, back
seat, couches, floors, boats, sitting upright or laying in positions that you wouldn't even think a person could get into.
It is pretty much my most valued skilled.

Jimmy Giggle's hair is pretty well represented in that drawing.
Purchasing Omega Replica Watches To Remain Fashionable. Compared with the high degree of authenticity of Omega watches prices they are effective
alternatives to truly appreciate the beauty of luxury. Can firstly that the cost of a genuine Omega clock as much as $45 while the cost of a user
replica as a fraction the former is. If you are looking for accessories to your everyday look chic and improve the social status look no further than
the Omega replica watches. Make sure you set the focus to the crowd.

1. The fuck kind of bell-curve wrecking height distribution do we have on these forums. OHH.com basketball team.
2. Jesus that business class looks pleasant.
3. I am also jealous of people who can nap anywhere, see my posts in the previous, now locked, TUASWDGAFA thread. On numerous occasions I have been
too tired to do things but unable to nap and thus wander around the streets in a zombie type drooling haze (still alert as fuck).

business class would be awesome, but the price definitely is not. every time i get off a plane i walk past those business class seats and send mental
hate rays towards the lucky bastards that can afford to sit in them.
melatonin is good for sleep... seratonin 'turns into' (science!) melatonin. This is why hot chocolate is good for sleep (no sugar). Cocoa produces
seratonin which -> melatonin. Plus milk contains tryptophan which also produces seratonin.

not as effective as a tamaze though haha.

I'm out before we take off, I fly a bit, bout once a week on average, and they usually 6:00am flights, so i'm usually fucking tired anyways, engine
starts, BAM i'm out. Always seam to wake up just as the flight attendant is approaching with the trolly though.
Like gloomy though i dont nap at any other time, try to avoid them, like feel myself nodding off and i'm up trying to wake up. Feel as if sleep takes
away fom valuable living hours (which are made less valuable by the amount of time spent playing FIFA or watching tv) I'm a flat 7 - 8 a night and
thats it, find my self sleeping in less and less as I get older.

I'm sure I've said this before - but naps make me feel like shit and turn me in to a cranky prick.
Generally I can't just lay down and fall asleep, it's a 30-40 minute process, and optimum nap time is 20-30 minutes, that's essentially a 50-70 minute
napping process - it's just not worth it.
Anyway, I got paid today and did my food shop for the week and paid rent and other cunts what I owed and am sitting on a cheeky $40 for twoish weeks.
On the upside I made a shit tonne of dumplings to freeze and am making up a huge Rogan Josh curry tonight to divvy up over a few days.

Is just like to point out that randomly asking for a free upgrade with airlines works surprisingly often.

Really? I don't travel enough to warrant asking, but can you tell me how you do it?
If it's to do with being charming and cute, I've got that covered. Any other tips appreciated!

I once asked cheekily with the old (gary) man at the check in desk, and he sort of laughed and said no.
I went to the gate and my ticket wouldn't scan, I was all like WTF bitch i need to be on this flight, and she was all like, oh, Ms Krooker, you've
been upgraded to business here is your new ticket.
BAM.
Was good, food was dope, was from Greece to Dubai, (unfortunately not Dubai to Perth tho which was the 12 hour leg). I had a dope cheese platter, and
drank a bottle of red wine that the male attendant was feeding me. Awesome.

dont want to pay though". is there a best practice for this?
only time we've tried was on our honeymoon. they didn't bite. pricks.

Honestly there's no real trick to it. They allocate a certain amount of 'comps' to each flight(I'm guessing in case sometging turns to shit and they
need apologise to a passenger). If they don't use any of them and you ask (obviously be nice about) they might give it to you. If they say no, just
chuckle and say 'oh well, was worth a shot' and move along. It's worked 3 times for me out of asking say 10 or 12 times

a female friend of mine got all tizzed up specifically to improve her chances of an upgrade. After asking the person at the desk if there was any
chance of an upgrade, they responded with, yes, of course, that'll be $3,785.

Dad flies a bit for work, so has a fuckload of frequent flier points.
Is using his points to Europe and back with mum business class for free next year.
I can sleep on planes, but only when I try to watch a movie.
I have a fuck all attention span, and fall asleep about 30 mins into anything I watch.

Usually just say it in a joking way or something like " what's the chance of a free upgrade?" If they say no just laugh it off. You'll probably never
see that person again so you really have nothing to lose.
