Today: fat people in planes, Edgar Allan Poe and a new use for duct tape. Meanwhile, over in the #crosstalk open forum you missed the opportunity to chat about babies in bars with me and balls with Foster.
- Claire Buoyant notes that Air France has banned the obese from its economy section unless they're sitting next to an empty seat. This would have come in sooo handy the time I spent a flight to Charles de Gaulle crammed against the fuselage while two two-hundred pounders read diet books.
- m4ximusprim3 then wiped the smug look off my out-of-shape carbed-out face.
- xyzpdq wonders if we would like someone to "write a first-person account of what it's like to be a female sex addict in recovery." Sounds perfect for #crosstalk!
