File Under "You Have Got to Be Sh*tting Me"

Buy a large soda at McDonald's and it's unlikely that anyone will hassle me if I sit there in a booth hoovering up free wi-fi all day.

Book a flight -- something a lot more expensive than a large soda (at least if I'm not buying the soda at an airport concession) -- and I get a friendly email from the airline the day before departure, letting me know I can get wi-fi there, too.

For $8.

That's some bullsh*t right there.
