I'm really sorry to do this, but I just can't resist. I tried to stop,
honestly, but I can't! I paid $32 for a 2.3 hour flight this past
weekend.

I completely understand and accept all of the hate which will probably
flow my way now.


Well, yeah, but see we pay a lot extra for all that engine noise which
you miss out on :-)

I know, and then you pay even more money for fancy headsets to block the
noise out again. It boggles the mind, I tell you.
