Ugh. Bougie homeless. Just sleep in your car like normal people. ๐Ÿ™„ /s

I do want sleep pods at airports.

Shower pod at the Paris airport was the best layover I've ever had. You pay in 30 minute increments but so nice to get refreshed when you're traveling across the Atlantic.

Wow, 30min is really generous.

I bet that was really nice. ๐Ÿ™‚ As someone who takes red eyes, showering when I get there would be preferred.

San Franciscan here. What is โ€œcar?โ€

A mobile home. Donโ€™t worry youโ€™ll be able to rent one from Uber for the night soon enough.

Well in San Francisco, a car is something that a robot learns how to navigate around the city streets.

All of our robots just sit in the middle of intersections. What are these navigating robots you speak of?
