Woeful experience with British Airways

Filed under: Business,Idiots — Mr. Zero @ 4:40 am

I see that this traveler has had a bad experience with British Airways. My experience included such features as:

  • missed connection – because they wouldn’t let us peasants in economy off the plane or to the head of the line through customs
  • canceled second flight – that’s right, the new flight I was scheduled on was cancelled
  • lost bag – adding insult to injury, my bag didn’t ever show up and it still hasn’t.

But the worst thing about British Airways is their absolutely non-existent customer service. They have a web form with no confirmation for contacting their customer service.  I’ve sent them three requests and never received a single response. The have a fax number only (a freaking FAX number) for lost baggage, but no phone number. The phone numbers they do post aren’t answered as far as I can tell. I mailed them a claim but received no acknowledgment that they received it. In fact, in two months of trying to contact them, I have yet to interact with a single human being about this experience.

Their customer service is non-existent. Literally. Never fly with them ever.

Matt Sanchez is a douchebag

Filed under: Idiots — Mr. Zero @ 4:17 am

The sanctimony and bullshitting just keep coming, from his latest editorial:

If liberalism were a religion, Columbia University would be a sort of East Coast mecca where devotees flock to take part in the festivities of pro-revolutionary culture that flourishes on campus. It’s not hard to imagine protesters swarming counterclockwise around the sundial and fancying themselves as the protectors of the true faith against the banality of the American experience. If the academy were a bubble, the University is an air bag designed to protect the occupants from the impact of the outside world-the real world.

What a douchebag.

More Matt Sanchez Dishonesty

Filed under: Idiots — Mr. Zero @ 5:38 am

Seems like after the heat got turned up on him, Sanchez isn’t quite so proud anymore. He knows the brass is monitoring his actions closely, so some of the more polemical posts have been taken down and he’s heavily moderating comments on his blog. That’s his right, naturally. But he hasn’t stopped misrepresenting the truth. He’s still claiming that ‘leftist bloggers’ ‘outed’ him when in fact it was gay porn fans. He’s still conflating porn and leftism, which is propaganda and horseshit — plenty of leftists hate porn.

Who outed Matt Sanchez?

Filed under: Education,Idiots — Mr. Zero @ 4:36 am

Columbia student, Matt Sanchez, aka “Rod Majors” and “Pierre LaBranche” claims to have been outed by left-wing bloggers. Unsurprisingly, it’s not only a self-serving claim tailored to Sanchez’s political agenda, it’s patently false. Matt Sanchez was in fact outed by gay porn fans who picked up on the Matt Sanchez/Rod Majors connection in December 17, 2006. This is a full two months before bloggers like Joe. My. God. and Tom Bacchus picked up on it.

Pastor Haggard “Completely Heterosexual”

Filed under: Idiots,Sex — Mr. Zero @ 7:09 pm

Haggard claims he’s “completely heterosexual.” Not on the Kinsey Scale, he isn’t.

Wingnuts!

Filed under: Idiots,Politics — Mr. Zero @ 4:13 am

Yes, there are plenty of wingnuts on the right. Anthrax hoaxing however is an unusual hobby for them (most stick to blogging.)

Santorum

Filed under: Geniuses,Idiots — Mr. Zero @ 1:33 am

The first link on Google for Senator Rick Santorum, isn’t for Rick Santorum, but for this rather disgusting eponym. Of course I’m just fanning the flames posting this.

(that’s the point)

Screech in a sex tape? The horror…the horror. I wonder if this will help him save his house.

More lies about global warming

Filed under: Idiots,Politics — Mr. Zero @ 5:04 am

I noticed that a lot of people are blogging about a speech made by Senator James Inhofe. I don’t really expect Senators to understand science, or for that matter, read. But what is interesting in this case is the depth of the misrepresentation. In his speech, Inhofe attacks the work of climate scientist Michael Mann. Claiming that “In 2006, both the National Academy of Sciences and an independent researcher further refuted the foundation of the “hockey stick.”” The ‘hockey stick’ is the marked increase in the rate of warming observed in the 20th century. Sounds pretty conclusive, right? National Academy of Sciences refuted it right? WRONG. If you read the report, which is available in full from the National Academy of Sciences, you will find that the NAS panel which evaluated the work expressed some skepticism. However, you will also find that “the committee finds it plausible that the Northern Hemisphere was warmer over the last few decades of the 20th century than during any comparable period over the preceding millenium.”

Shame on Inhofe for lying and shame on the right for perpetuating these lies by repeating them. Of course it might just be that he’s an idiot.
