Same here. On each flight I'm actually hoping for a story.

Closest I came was last week flying Charlotte to Dayton. We pushed away from the gate, but were held up for about 20 minutes due to air traffic in ATL. The ladies in front of me, started chirping after the flight attendant made the announcement, "Y'all knew that before we left the gate."
"I don't know. The pilot is the one who talks to air traffic control," the attendant said.
"Y'all knew that. Why did y'all make us get on the plane?"

The flight attendant handled it rather well, even phoning the pilot to explain the situation to the plane.

That's about as grievous a DYKWIA offense as I've seen. Not much, but just got on my nerves.
