Watch what you say… when flying Northwest Airlines. As the plane was getting ready for takeoff, the flight crew made the routine announcement about turning off electronic devices including cell phones. This poor bastard turned his off, and when the lady nearby didn’t turn hers off, he suggested that she turn it off because it could interfere with the flight and bring the plane down. Apparently she had potatoes for ears, and told a flight attendant that another passenger was threatening to bring the plane down. So the plane turned around, police were called, and the poor guy got taken from the plane for a little chat with the cops. That’s what ya get for tryin’ to be nice! (via)
