I have a real life things you don't want to hear your fellow passenger say moment once.
I was on a Dublin-Cardiff flight, using a propeller short haul plane when the woman sat across the aisle from me, done up in her best business attire, said to the flight attendant: "Those things on the wings are very noisy. Can they be turned off?"
After recovering from the shock (yes, she literally bsod'ed for about ten seconds on hearing that), the flight attendant said "Not really, no. They kind of keep the plane in the air".
Cue a dejected "oh" from my fellow passenger.
