Overseas is probably the best way to put it.
I probably don't have to tell you that she's definitely going to go shopping while there.
EU is always ahead in fashion. Those impulse buys! Also, food smuggling! It was somewhat shocking to see how some of the prices on things were either vastly different or not much different at all. It is a bit strange when some things are price competitive, but we pay 25% tax on it.
Also, tipping and not including tax is annoying.

Well, crap! How many bags are we talking here? Are you all temporarily moving the household for two weeks?
A week's worth of clothes.
Washer, dryer and an iron are probably available.
Maybe one or two dressy-dresses. Just in case she wants to go paint the town.
Ugh! I'm turning into my mom! /agrees with Z on all points
Roll your clothes when packing! It really does save on space and irons are pretty much always available.
I love my across the body purse, absolutely perfect for traveling.
Pack for security. If traveling as a couple put all liquids and electronics together (liquids in one bag and all electonics in another). Makes it easier to just plop those down in those stupid grey bins. Can always seperate out after security.
Babies:
Have one diaper per hour of traveling. It's overkill but better safe than sorry.
Take an extra change of clothes for the parents in case baby has an accident all over you.
Pouch babyfood is awesome to travel with.

Ehhh...You should be good then, if there's not too much temptation. Nix the double-suitcase method then.

My survivalist packing methods are frowned upon. When we went to Hawaii a few years ago, I nearly spent the first night sleeping on the beach for stuffing socks into all the little corners of leftover space. I keep trying to point out the life skills I've learned from video games, but apparently, Tetris'ing the luggage is a bad example.

I learned that I should never ask logical questions when I'm in trouble.

We were at a mexican restaurant:
I ordered a margarita on the rocks with salt.
The waiter asked me what size
Me: "size? medium I guess."
Waiter: "so you want 20oz?"
Me: "what!"
Waiter: "we have 12, 20, and 32oz"
Me: "o.o 32oz....seriously? I'll take 12oz"

It's always been really hit and miss with them... sometimes the food is decent and sometimes it's been in the steam tray so long it's changed color palettes

Amateur... I've had 1.5 liters of beer in one setting (football game, 3 half liter beers). And the hangover that went with it.
An almost 1 liter margarita hangover I can pass on =/

Panda is basically a guaranteed "better than starving" meal. I still say it's better than the fast food alternatives, if having a real meal isn't an option for some reason.

I hardly drink anymore, but I have vividly blacked out the days when if offered 2 or more sizes I always chose the largest.
I meant amateur by not assuming whatever the smallest size was, that it was probably still more than you needed. That's the American way.

So which are worse than starving? I'm guessing waffle house/taco bell/arby's/hardee's/denny's are honorable mention, but what else?

So which are worse than starving? I'm guessing waffle house/taco bell/arby's/hardee's/denny's are honorable mention, but what else?
I was going with things like McDonald's, Burger King, etc. I'd put Arby's on the survival list, along with Denny's, IHOP, or other roadside diner types. I figure if you're driving through, you're probably on a road trip or something like it and traditional diners aren't nearby. Fast food isn't much cheaper than a real meal, so time or access has to be the reason for it.
That said, I actually like IHOP style restaurants. In and out quickly, generally pretty clean, decent food, decent price, and I know I can get something I like there. If I can't have a home-cooked meal for whatever reason, those are the kind of places I look for.

I survived another day, one of you lost a bet.
Edit: As of 2010-10-05 14:48:06 CST, Ni reached 10,000 pages.
Since we all can't be on the same linkshell in game, this can be our cross server linkshell thread.
Like most linkshells, it can be pretty dead at times. Other times it's full of intense conversations about either rl, gear, goals, pokemon or anything else you want to contribute.
We can cover any sort of topic at all, within reason of the forum rules. No real main topic, just a bunch of FFXIAH friends/people coming on and discussing random things.

Continuation from: http://www.ffxiah.com/forum/topic/2873/ffxiah-linkshell/732/#150486
Update: Sorry Eternaltriumph, too much has changed D: (Page 698)
Eternaltriumph said: Yeah Chuu. Bringing you up to speed, Ludoggy is the LS pedophile. I'm the fountain of random and useless knowledge that makes you go "Hrm" with the occasional side of "holy shit he said what?"
Kungfu is the LS nutjob, spouting super random things that are usually sexist, until Savvy or Alyria comes into the room. Then he's a classic case of sexual harrassment. Rumaha is also true to the second part; we're wondering about his sexuality though.
Daj is Ludoggy's gay lover. Not much else is known about this Asuran. Tairo is kinda new, but since is a female and Alyria's lesbian lover, she fit right in real quick.
Celene(F) and Rowland(M) are more of the shyer members, but often say things that are witty, have a good pun and sometimes cause three page discussions. Celene hates when people hit on her. It doesn't stop them from trying.
Krizz is just social and likes to kill time here during work Tbest is about the same, except tends to be a douche to guys and affectionate toward girls.
Alyria is the most social female, gets groped a lot without provoking it by others, and Tairo ends up stabbing people for it. Cai is just a barrel of lols, I might be gay for him. If I wasn't straight.
Not sure about Citag, s/he's new. Kiriyu is just an in-out kinda person. Says one thing every three days that every guy makes a big fuss over. Ludoggy gets really defensive since she's asian and underage (might be 18 now).
Artem is the wayward soul that makes you ponder the meaning of life by constantly reminding us life can suck. But he deals, and so do we. About the same for Savannah, except people are more "AWH!" to her because of a vagina involved.
Dasva is the ex military man (as is Krizz but this doesn't apply to him) who hates the world and plots a way to destroy most of it.
Number2 is kinda like a mix between Cai and I; never bashes, likes to laugh and has odd avatars. His current suits a lot of the convos this LS gets into. Barti is most well known for his moustache. He gives mousatche rides for a fee. I'm missing a few people but whatever. CARRY ON!
Luelle Smells.
