When I accidentally glance at that page and accidentally give my hint for said sudoku or crossword because someone has already finished it.

GA's at gates with close proximity that just say "now boarding Zone 1", without a flight number or destination. .. People in the 4 adjoining gates all rush their boarding doors. MCO is particularly bad about this at times.

When you're in SEA, SFO or Houston KLM lounge, and ALL the darn newspapers are in some other language. Except for the always-leftover pink FT, but it uses words with too many syllables.

TATL dinner service in J. Why do they hand out freezing cold silverware? Ruins the soup.

DARN good point! Now, if there's a salad, well then of course the fork should be chilled.

And they call this a meal service.... more like a dis-service!

I may go crazy just knowing this is out there and I really hope it's a one off and that someone caught it after this plane (and I looked, at least all the C+ rows had this mistake) because really...

I can't remember when or where, but I'm sure I saw something similar on a placard at least 5-7 years ago

1) ice cream sandwich snack on international flights - they are frozen so hard I almost crack my tooth biting into it... yes, ice cream cups are also very hard, but you use a spoon and it minimize the risk of hurting yourself

2) those damn hot sandwich snack in perforated bags - the grease leaks out through the venting perforation and your hands are coated with grease. next thing you know, the grease is transfer to my computer, phone and other items
