One for the Road

Uncategorized: May 1st, 2009

This will probably be my last non-automated post before I completely go on vacation. I’m currently in Changi airport’s Budget terminal. In spite of the “budget” label, this is actually a better experience than the NAIA. For one thing, it’s not depressingly dark for an airport. I’d take a picture but I’m too lazy to [...]

I suddenly remembered this video in one of ‘em funny home video shows from probably as far back as ten years ago. Lolwut.
