Future Man: did they arrest the guys who were thinking about crime? what about the ones who had designated drivers or were signed into the hotel? were they yelling and making a scene before being arrested? risking getting into a fight? clearly very drunk?
K: apparently they arrested those who failed a sobriety test.
But even then so the fuck what? They were in a hotel where
they were staying and the hotel did not call the police in.
Have you ever been in a hotel bar? Believe me, 99% of
all hotels have good enough security to deal with a few drunks.
It was the hotels call to make if they had an issue beyond their
control.
Fm: what was the danger if they had a ride or a room? they must have been red faced, yelling, slurring, knocking something over. they must have been.
k: Even if they were the hotel can deal with it.
Hotels have good (usually) security and bartenders
who can spot trouble a mile away and deal with it
long before it becomes a problem. I was once
a hotel bartender, I know these things.
K: why does everyone want to migrate to some cold barren place.
Whatever happened to some warm and sunny beach with Mai tai’s.
If only Hawaii wasn’t U.S. territory, it would be perfect. "
FM: well actually, my ancestors, the benevolent and wise vikings called Greenland green and Iceland ice in order to fool people who would be interested in immigrating or conquering them. they’d first go to Greenland of course, and immediately realize that these vikings are crazy snowman idiots.
K: I have heard Iceland/Reykjavik is rather cool place to live,
a bit on the expensive side though.
FM: Iceland is surrounded by the warm Atlantic conveyor and is pretty temperate. more importantly, it has no need for fossil fuels and has recently stopped importing them. volcanic hot springs spew energy right out of the ground. you just plug your computer right into the water and you have electricity for thousands of years. a meteor could destroy all civilization and Iceland will not miss a beat. they could grow crops with heat lamps if they really have to."
K: when the bombs/meteor drops and destroys mankind,
I won’t really want to be around anyway. If baseball is gone,
I won’t have anything to live for. Go Giants.
