My gripe is your use of hyperbole to describe UA as "the worst carrier on earth" when there are airlines like Spirit, Ryanair, Air Asia, and even airlines like US. I'd never expect hyperbole in one of your trip reports, if you had presented a fair but critical report of this flight I would not have minded and respected your opinion.
dinoscool3,

Here's the difference:
  • FR: You're paying us $X per km/mi. In return for this low price, we are going to treat you like crap.
  • UA/UX: You're paying us $X*(insert a non-hyperbolic factor) per km/mi. But we are still going to treat you like crap.

See the difference?
