Nitrogen... Better than the methane I'm used to on my commutes.

She doesn't understand food either. If it's not organic, it's poison.

I particularly enjoy the captain that says on the PA the APU is MEL'd and they would have to do a crossbreed start.

Loved the part about organs being compressed because she takes the word "pressurized" so literally. She probably thinks her organs will pop like balloons if she travels to the mountains where there's less pressure.

This is a very special kind of stupid...

Don't forget to mention where the nitrogen comes from - the airline puts nitrogen in the tires under pressure and it is the pressure in the tires that pushes the nitrogen into air-bags and mixed together using the mechanical energy of the flushing moment from each toilet. :-)
As an aside, the pressure bled off from the tires is calculated precisely so as to have the required pressure in the tires for landing

To the SWA pilot at Charlie N Jakes in Melbourne, FL. Listen. We know you're a pilot for SWA. The cute waitresses do too. So please keep it down next time. Your golf buddies didn't seem to care. They were also embarrassed by your loud. "I'm a pilot" antics and how cringing when you stated how well you land 737's.
