Cannot for the life of me work out the difference between "stayed here" and "visited" but assuming stayed here is spent, like, more than a night (???) here's mine

Got upgraded to first flying back to visit family, which is always nice. Its always nice getting more leg room :3
View of my legs (wearing jeans) with the back of a first class seat in front of me. The pamphlet is for a 737. I have so much leg room.View outside the window of the plane, you can see my hand reflected in the glass, along with an American Airlines A321 with the America West Airlines legacy livery.

LOS DFW (in a middle seat, sadly)
My legs and an iPad resting on them, with an airplane seat in front of them, only about an inch between knees and chair. The chair is missing its seatback safety card and infotainment cards.

view out the window of a plane landing, the flaps on the wing are deployed and it is in the ground. The DFW trademark sky colors still are present.

LOS DFW
View out a plane window across the wing, looking at a fancier terminal and another plane. The sky is uncharacteristically blue for DFW, with fluffy white clouds and contrails.

AOS DFW
View of DFW airport out of a plane window, looking down the wing. The sky is DFW's trademark brownish gray hue, turning the trademark blue of the sky anywhere else higher in the frame.

No cheating post your lock screen. I really need to get a new and more personal lock screen, but my lock screen has been this grid since Cortex released their backgrounds years and years ago, and honestly, it's a vibe
A grayish blue lock screen with a lighter grid pattern overlayed on it, with the screen getting darker at the top and bottom, as if a spotlight is shone on the middle of the screen.

At the top is the standard Samsung notifications bar (listing the phone at 73% charge), as well as a smooth sans serif listing the time and date. At the bottom, the Google wallet app and photos app are visible as quick selects.

I feel like so many of their "gotcha" moments can be resolved by the good ol Left-Handedness Graph™...and when a reputable chart from 2015 instantly throws a wrench into your demographic study, that's not a great sign
The classic Washington Post graph showing the rate of left-handedness among Americans based on birth year, showing a percentage of 5% in 1890, dropping to about 3 in roughly 1905, and then climbing to a plateau at just under 12% by 1960, where it remains today.
