OctoberBlues posted:I don't fly a super lot, like 5-6 times a year, so I don't know how common this is. But last year I had to fly to Portland, ME and connected through NYC. For the first and to this point only time in my life I had to take a little shuttle to the middle of the landing strip area where we walked up a creaky flight of stairs and got onto a tiny rear end little plane going to Portland. Apparently that is common when going to Maine, lol. Try flying to their "capital" in a major airline carrier. I wasn't able to and had to drive at night from Portland. The good airport.

I feel like people tune in expecting serious news time then get pissed off when hey it's not 100% unbiased serious reporting

I'm cool with John Oliver, he's super open about the fact that he's just a clown yelling for your amusement, but also some of his stuff sheds light on problems people don't normally talk about. So basically shut your bitch mouths is all.

What are the cool stuff places in Maine? Well there is no shortage of outdoors stuff to do, from the Allagash to Acadia. Portland is where anything that is something will be located but everything south of Augusta is northern massachusetts

Maine: a place my great something grandfather lol noped out of when his uncle's plan for it got sucked into its own rear end in a top hat. I can't believe no one has gotten the point that the high tolls on the roads are meant to deter people from going there.

Also I once made the mistake of visiting the UMaine campus when looking for colleges. Drove eight hours both ways and after a certain point the highway looked exactly the same bar the occasional moose in a flannel shirt taking a poo poo.

Lol I'm from Iowa too but Maine has oceans, mountains, lakes and they won't throw you in jail for half a joint which I think makes I cooler than Iowa by default.

Maine will also have legal weed in November, since everyone should be voting yes on question 1
