One of the reasons I avoid WN is because of the cornball, camp counsellor chuminness and wisecracks. I find it undignified and akin to being behind an old guy in a store or who, when asked "How can I help you?" responds with "By giving me a million dollars!". It's usually grandpa humor at the level of "working hard or hardly working?". What's more, it feels forced and only the kettles fall for it.

That said, there was one incident I found amusing a few years back, and sadly, yes, it was on WN. We just landed at LAS and the FA announced "Welcome to Lost Wages!". Now, this joke in itself is obvious and cliched, but the amusing part was how the locals..as in the people who actually live in Las Vegas...were offended. I overheard more than a few get indignant and offended. After all, who in their right minds would insult the Shangri La utopia that is the city of Las Vegas?
