Things that airline pilots say are amazing.  Not only do they not know how to control the pitch or volume of their voice (Jacob Silj), they speak endlessly and erratically and give way to much useless information.  For instance, when you first take off, they usually say something about reaching a cruising altitude and how long the flight will take and that they'll make up time in the air.  When I get on a plane, I just want to read my book or take a nap.  I don't care about anything they have to say.  And what's the deal with making up time in the air?  How can they possibly make up time in the air?  Fly faster?  Why wouldn't they just fly that fast to begin with?  And then they keep ending their sentences with long pauses so that you think they're done talking and you start to read your book or magazine.  But then they interrupt and ruin your concentration.  My recommendation:  use as few words as possible.  Nobody cares how fast we're flying or the temperature of the airport we're flying into.  Another interesting and annoying thing is the language used by the flight attendants.  No longer do we talk about cups and napkins.  They're called service items, part of the beverage service.  We all know that there's no smoking anywhere on the plane.  There hasn't been for like 15 years.  Instead of talking endlessly about all these rules and restrictions and doing it in a language strange, try speaking english or maybe even street talk.  "Hey.  Don't smoke.  If we crash into the ocean, you can float on your seat.  If you can't work your seatbelt, get off the plane; you're not smart enough to fly." #travel
