Late at night on Twitter there was a big “rumor” that Hyatt will add a new Category 8.Well, you know how this goes by now…Whatever the outcome is, a whole lot of credit cards will be sold. But not here, sad lol.
AA, amidst all the beating they are getting lately, just added three more airlines to the online award search engine: Qatar, Sri Lankan and Air Tahiti Nui. I am excited about booking Qatar and some of you are probably excited about booking Air Tahiti Nui.
Saw this great Avis promo at Mile Nerd!
Well, I had never heard of these resorts! Auberge to Reflag Five Properties in Greece and the U.S. Two properties are in Santorini and Mykonos! I can not believe Accor Hotels did not buy them…yet lol.
I bet you never heard of the Cloud Appreciation Society before either! Looks like their trip to awesome looking Lundy Island is sold out, so sad for you who did not sign up! I think…
Anyone remember the Groupon CEO who got fired and he sent that awesome resignation letter? Well, he gave a very candid interview recently which I really enjoyed! The Super-Quick Rise and Even Faster Fall of Groupon. Former CEO Andrew Mason on what the roller-coaster ride felt like.
We are back on the anti Trump articles, sorry for taking a break 🙂 This is really good: The hack gap: how and why conservative nonsense dominates American politics. Read it and weep!
Never heard of this lake too! What the hell is going on today with TBB, is this the Never Never post or what! Canada’s Spotted Lake: The Most Alien-Looking Lake on Earth.
These are some stunning photos of twins. The Powerful Connection of Twins.
I had no idea that these existed, back on track with the Never Never blog theme of today! Morocco’s Abandoned Movie Sets in The Desert.
This happens to me frequently after I am bombarded with so many crappy blog posts by “experts” that are nothing but pathetic sales jobs to trick readers to click on travel rewards credit cards to make money!
On the other side of the pond, Head for Points is expanding and looking to hire a writer. One day this is going to happen here…Bwaahahahahaha!
There was a tweet war with Spencer on Twitter. You can read where I am coming from…Bloggers sleep well at night while readers get screwed. The more I am in this bleeding hobby…the more disgusted I become with these practices of going along to screw readers #barf. A TPG writer interrupted us later on to excuse their practice for…making a living, smh. I am very angry now…I better stop.
On top of that, as of November 1st, Amazon will not pay us bloggers if you use our Amazon link to buy any gift cards. When it rains it pours I guess…
Breaking: We just found Trump’s cat! (HT: NickPFD).
Since we mentioned Air Tahiti Nui, here is me and son about to board one of their planes back in 2004 when all the Titan experts had not even discovered miles and points back then…experts my big fat Greek behind!
I like to mess with Ramsey in the comments. Based on my experience, here is some advice:
Do NOT, I repeat, DO NOT pay any money to Jim Cramer, the stock “guru” for ANY investment advice. EVER!
You must be an unbelievable moron to take credit for a short term rise in the stock market. And a tremendous hypocrite to blame everyone else when the stock market falls. And this is what we are living through in this Trump era..
Can’t wait to share with you the Best of Web links on Sunday, so hard to keep the top five this time.
And I leave you with this…

Great cat gif!
Need to get those gloves!
TBBTheDude says
With my Amazon link!
See what happens when I hang around all those pumping blogs 🙂
Spencer says
War is such a strong word. I thought we were having a lively discussion in which I pointed out some incorrect assumptions that were made about me.
TBBTheDude says
War was clickbait 🙂
For some reason, I had confused you writing for TPG too…So, okay, Brian is not your boss. But I am sure you would say yes as he pays better than Ben 😉
My point in the tweet back and forth was to show that…it is impossible in this space NOT to get corrupted and go along with consumer deception practices…I put all writers who write for the Titan blogs in this category. It is not right for the readers! But I understand it, believe me.
Now excuse me…my wife says she wants the Hyatt card! Time to get paid woohoo.
Please send me info on your award emails? Not familiar with that.
I am wondering how much they pay for articles…
ABC says
Nobody lasts long with Ben. TPG appears to be a professional organisation.
Raffles says
Spencer can come to the UK and work for me for c $55k (and free healthcare and schooling!)
GringoLoco says
No. Your wife wants “the fantastic new Hyatt card with the huge bonus” (linklinklinklinklink)

Ramsey says
I think De Niro was rightfully targeted for making a lot of shitty movies lately, like Meet The Fockers 2 et al.
TBBTheDude says
That was a really bad movie, he mailed it in!
Looks like they caught the bomber…as expected. Before someone got really hurt.
In the meantime, looks like Cramer is going to send another buy signal soon? 🙂
Sam says
Another great comment-let’s laugh about sending bombs.
Son of Sam says
Sam you sound like a barrel of fun, the guy was caught, no one was hurt and De Niro’s last decade of movie’s all suck. In fact everything after Raging Bull blow. I guess only anti Trump jokes are acceptable.
Today stocks are on sale, buy, buy buy!!
Sam says
You use that Trumpian situational ethics thing well. “Nobody gets hurt”-just like your hero in chief.
As for movie reviews, that means Goodfellas, Once Upon a Time in America and King of Comedy all suck. I certainly can’t argue with that logic (since there isn’t any).
Cesar Sayoc says
Does this blog have a mailing address?
Sam says
Great comment-let’s laugh about sending bombs.
Cesar says
you are welcome Groucho, last i checked no one was injured
TBBTheDude says
We all were NOT shocked it was that clown…
Amazing the moron believed Trump was draining the swamp…
Just amazing…
And sad…
TBBFan says
Loved the old TBB…who was posting the latest AI blowjobs related research 🙂

ABC says
Amazing, contains all the buzzwords: AI, machine learning, porn and deeplearning. I am surprised that they did not include blockchain.
Some say Satoshi Nakamoto’s “Bitcoin: A Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash System” has been the most influential paper of this century. Maybe this one will top that.
Andy Shuman says
Finally, something I’ve been waiting for my whole life. What took them so long?
TBBFan says
TBB,
Please start to have your wife model some credit cards…can’t see Emily and her friends anymore. Please amigo. Do it for the community, save us!
