It is food. I want the passenger jet to land properly, I don't give a shit if the food they feed me on the flight sucks.
I want my jet to be "On point". I am not going to bitch about airline food. Are you drunk already?

I love metal roller coasters, the only part of that ride is the initial chain pull up the biggest hill at the start of the ride when it feels like you are going to slide backwards. But once it gets to the top and gravity takes over, I enjoy the ups and downs.
But in air travel, FUCK NO! I don't want to feel like the plane is going to flip over every 2 seconds.
I'd forgo all the microwave food on a long flight for a smooth flight.

Funny this should come up now. We are fast approaching the 117th anniversary of the momentous day when Wilbur and Orville Wright, using only wood laths, canvas, and old bicycle parts, constructed the world’s first in-flight lasagna.

Totally off-topic, but since you mention it..I've never once, in my entire life, been on a roller coaster. I refuse. They don't even serve meals.

-and finally at kitty hawk in 1902 (let's hear it)... the first real airplane really flew with Orville there to steer it. 
If you head out there you see why it was a great place to do it. The headwinds just don't stop. It's hard to get a piece of bait a few hundred feet out into the water even if you're flinging a half pound weight on a 15 foot rod.

And I would be the first to admit, I would shit my pants. Don't even offer me a hot air balloon ride.
How the hell I made it to Australia twice, was, well, a fuck load of caring about my late friend, and my best friend.

Was the in-flight food on-point?

Even more off topic, I once watched a man berate a waitress because his dinner companion got more walnuts in her salad than he did. I was about to give the man a chance to explain to me why I shouldn’t unscrew his head for him when the manager came over and threw him out.
