Exhibit A why takeoff is the worst part of flying. It’s loud, you can’t have your electronics out, you’re probably fighting over the armrest in your seat with the old gross fat guy sitting next to you… there’s always that thought in the back of your head right before takeoff “Alright, we’ve been on the ground for awhile, how much runway is left? Why aren’t we in the air yet? Something is wrong. We’re all gonna die. I have to take a piss.”

And now you have to worry about getting struck by lighting. No thanks, dude. Flying sucks as it is. I don’t need to worry about getting electrocuted while I’m thousands of feet above the ground.**

I’ve seen Final Destination, I know how these things work and I want no part of that. This is my official resignation from airplanes and all things aviation.

** I know that you probably won’t get electrocuted while you’re midair, but just go with it. It fits the story.
