    We're in chaos? What did I miss?
    This twenty-year-old boy was distinguished from childhood by strange qualities, a dreamer and an eccentric. A girl fell in love with him, and he went and sold her to a brothel...

    BBC News - Volcanic ash: Europe flights grounded for third day

    Its not just airlines that are screwed, all other methods of international transportation are now nearly completely impossible due to complete blockage and over booking.

    I mentioned this another thread over on General Chat, but I heard some Formula One teams' employees and drivers will be able to get a flight back into Europe for once the Shanghai Grand Prix wraps up this Sunday. I don't know.. maybe they have a few private jets or something.

    I also have a friend who's been cracking it over Twitter and Facebook because he couldn't find a hotel to stay in after his flight was grounded. Well, at least he was cracking it. Haven't heard from him in a bit now.. hope he found somewhere. Or else he's doing the ol' airport overnighter, which I know from personal experience sucks hard.

    Maybe if you weren't using prehistoric European technology that has proven incapable of standing even the most minor of catastrophic conditions you would be able to function over something as small as a volcanic eruption. I am American and we are fine. I think I'll fly to New York tomorrow just to prove my superiority.

    Silly brits lol

    No, silly, Britain is only a small part of the overall landmass of Europe (I hear it is an island!). However, they are the most funny looking so they get singled out and laughed at by me.

    Silly brits lol

    Thats idiotic. The volcanic ash is high up in the air at the exact altitude of pretty much all airspace. The ash is being carried by the wind from iceland to the EAST. There is no ash in america. This also has aboslutely NOTHING to do with England.

    If your precious technology were here I bet your ass they would function even worse.

    Also last time I checked, US houses and estates are so poorly built that they cannot withstand .

    Please stop your arrogant posts in my threads, im on edge at the moment if you couldn't tell. Thank you.
    Their not even worth any comedic value.
