    Problem Solving

    C is the bit where shit actually happens.

    Without C, A → B is just two arbitrary and random points connected by a complex mess of variables and obstacles, constrained and limited by time.

    The trick ain't in solving the path from A to B. The trick is getting C to come to A and remove B from the whole fucken equation. Once C shows up at the terminal the equation solves itself.

    Depends on the equation you have to solve:
    • 1. T -> |I| -> P -> C -> D

    • 2. T -> |I| -> P -> C -> |I| -> T

    where T is international terminal, I is immigration, P is Philippines, D is domestic terminal, with the understanding of the impediment I, aka immigration.

    Now if you already have to pass through the immigration membrane |I| for your connecting domestic flight, fine. But if you're waiting in T, aka transit, is it really worth it to have to endure two penetrations of I for one penetration of C? Because if you're not solving equation 1 but need to solve equation 2, for C -> T, she'll need a boarding pass.

    Just have to ask yourself what it's worth to you (as you have to ask yourself with every punt). For me, I'm in the lounge, quick hot shower, a bit of food, and a couple of drinks for that temporary stress relief. As I said, now if it's an overnight layover... Who hasn't hit DMK at 0'dark hundred, metered taxi ("expressway, I pay") to downtown hotel, bag drop, hit Nana for the last hour for some LT stress relief back at the hotel. Breakfast, lunch from BG7 at the short-time hotel, an AMP visit for dinner, then airport return. Time management.

    English comp, few enjoy it, but it does stand you in good stead in life for stringing some sentences together into a paragraph.

    Have to say, AI much more entertaining than your TAAB 1 liners. Oh well.

    Already on reddit. Not a main source, but it does help sometimes.

    But thanks for your concern. Never bored, life's too full of fun and entertainment. Travel sooner rather than later.

    That formula is wildly over-engineered for this joint. Punters are very simple creatures and the population here can be broken down into three equal groups: one-third paying for a tug, one-third paying to get their dick sucked, and one-third paying for a root.

    The remaining 1% keep the forum alive and buzzing by contributing to the intellectual discourse with questions like:
    * Where can I find a decent Asian RnT in Sydney?
    * Does she have big tits?
    * Who sells Kamagra?
    * Anyone tried the new chick at XYZ?

    After a while you realise every thread is just a variation of one of those four questions.
