Allegiant pilots inadvertantly wear second hand body glitter on their faces.

That's hilarious. Means that the industry is doing better.
Pre-2001, lots of ultra-conservatives around the pilot lounge.
Post-2001, post-paycuts, stuff got real for a lot of people and there were, to put it mildly, some broadening perspectives about how post-military civilian pilots ranked in the food chain.
I love the "Obamacare sucks, I hate SouthernJet's UHC plans, the government has no role in it, I'm going back to Tricare"
Umm…
Err…
Well...
Orange whip? Orange whip? Orange whip? THREE ORANGE WHIPS!

Lorne Greene was "da man" until I saw Eddie O drop a b-star through the atmosphere to launch the vipers and jump away at 50 AGL while everyone on the ground looked up and said "W. T. F.?"
THAT was pure nerdgasim.

We have to shine somehow... its not like we have any bad press to be worri... ahem... well how about them Royals?
Greene was the man, but you're right, Olmos is THE quintessential post-apocalyptic bad ass.
Ain't it hilarious how Starbuck (original) was kind of an old school quasi-misogynist but got replaced with a female actor who was manlier, had shorter hair and beat (white) Tigh's ass the first episode?
(Sidenote: Yeah, it's off topic, it's 14 flipping pages, folks!)

Man. Sounds boring.

With that said, there is very little way you could ever replace Lloyd Bridges' over-the-top portrayal of Commander Cain. Holly Daggits, was that funny.
Cylon: "Sir, I really think you should look at the OTHER Battlestar!" ....best line ever uttered by a robot in a weekly sci-fi show.

Very boring is the place for me,
Quiet flying is the life for me,
Sky spreadin' out so far and wide
Keep your rhetoric, just show me your quiet side.
[Sung to the theme of Green Acres]
Sounds great to me!
There is so little socioeconomic variety in the cockpit so it's a very narrow variance of opinions about politics, finance and religion every time. THAT'S what I find boring.
I will admit, however, all are better than sports talk. Seriously, I really don't know how the NBA draft is going. For real, dog. I know it blows your damned narrow brain that there's a brother that doesn't watch "hoops" (or any other sport) but please stop asking me. Even when I had a cousin playing for the NFL and I've got one playing on a pretty high level at USC, I truly, from the bottom of my heart, don't hold sports in any higher regard than a bunch of potheads playing hackey sack in the quad.

Haha...this. My GF is the "sporto"...she played hoops in college. Watches all manner of athletic type stuff on the TV. When she cheers I'm like "yeaaa! Go sports!" in some kind of partner affirmation ritual.
Seriously...I couldn't tell you which end of the rink the hoop goes in baseball. I will confess that I will go watch minor league baseball because:
1) She makes me
2) It's VERY inexpensive, especially on $1 giant beer day.
3) It's not completely horrible sitting outside with said beer along with a good frank and peanuts.
4) The goofy shenanigans that goes on between those inning things.
5) See #1

None that has made it into the news..... yet....
OMG. You're like my long-lost brother.
When I did go to baseball games, it was for the giant beers and the ability to eat hot dogs guilt-free and there were the giant condiment machines where I could engorge myself with rivers of mustard and vast pastures of relish.
Ooh! Costco! Wait. Saturday. It's "Murder Ball" on weekends, NVM.

Sounds awful to me... then again I could talk for hours about tacos, Deadmau5, apple slices w/ various dipping delights, about sailing, the motorcycle rebuild I'm planning on doing this winter, snowboarding, and perhaps we could discuss the complexities behind hosting a Saturday afternoon "beer in the cooler, sit around in lawnchairs, and do nothin' all day" event.
Then again @Derg... if you like it quiet then I'll be quiet... its your ship after all!
Yes! All that sounds awesome to me!
Besides, Deadmau5 has been dropping bricks the last few albums. EDM is dead. When Paris Hilton draws a crowd as a "DJ", the genre needs a break.
But "I'm buying gold!"/"Obama is takin' muh GUNZ"/"See man, pre-merger and when we had 3.B.6 the company couldn't screw around with new airplane rates, they had to negotiate! How did you vote on the 777 TA back in 2000? I mean, come on man, Giambusso sold us out to dry and then I wrote him this 15 page letter (hands it to me) about why ALPA… blah blah BLARG"…
eh… I'm good.

But seriously, I flew with a guy a while back who was veeeeery open about his Christian beliefs. That's fine, but he'd go on and on about what he did for Lent, etc. The look on his face when I told him that I'm not a Christian was priceless.
Also didn't help that his religious rants had mildly racist undertones. Can't make this stuff up.

So, to summarize, no politics, no religion, no money, and no sports? What's left? Because I sure as hell don't want to hear about anyone's damned kids.
