The SHOW: Airlines still a "good gig"??

Dude...I guess you didn’t see the motel [not hotel] pens. I stopped doing the single-serving shampoo bottles...had a few explode during trips due to cabin altitude.
Being on a long term leave of absence is really going to screw with my "never buying shampoo or soap again" retirement investment plan.
I knew I could depend on you!
Dude, guys like you should be mentoring guys like me to put the little bottles in a ziploc bag and prevent just such mishaps.
Yeah...well...I did the ziploc bag college try and it was a no joy result...but at least the no joy result was contained in the ziploc bag and didn’t get all over my Metallica t-shirts.
You can still use the shampoo from that Ziploc bag. Plus, I'm sure it's a reused Ziploc that still has cheetoh dust in it.
The cheetohs exfoliate your scalp.
And, if they're the spicy cheetos, they provide the tingle that lets you know the shampoo is working.
Speaking of hotel life pro tips and life hacks, thanks for the iron the inside of your shirt idea (when the hotel iron has minerals and crud in the steam holes and they all won't quite blow out from the explosive steam from the puff puff button on a hotel towel and/or holding the iron under the faucet).
And I know I'm not the only one who uses bar soap and conditioner to make shaving lather instead of packing a travel can of shaving cream- somebody else had to have come up with that one long before I did (kinda like thinking you're the first caveman to discover fire).
Then there's the daysleeper trick where you use the clips of a pants hanger to clasp the curtains tight...
Maybe this will turn into the neurotic weird shit and the show thread.
Why mix the soap with the conditioner for a shave? Conditioner alone seems to work fine.
Preflight the alarm clock so you are not surprised by a 0300 wake up for your 1500 flight.
Towel inserted into the pillow case helps beef up inadequate pillows.
Hardly a big secret but an old standby, just hang your garments in the bathroom and turn the shower on full hot to steam out the wrinkles.
When you put any device on charge double check that it is, in fact, charging. Some lamps with 110V outlets are only hot when the lamp is on.

Conditioner works in a pinch, but I like my king of shaves gel. It pours nicely into a travel size bottle, no pressurized gas required.
You know they make actual shave soap?
