Good.

Fucking tickets are like playing some crazy lottery bullshit. Look from an iPhone. Prices go up. Look too many times, prices go up. Look on the wrong day prices go up.

How a single damned person on HN could root for the airlines is bonkers. They deserve nothing but contempt.

Everyone on HN is richer than average, sexier than average, smarter than average, and better at getting flight deals than average.

It’s just statistics.
