Rats aren't a problem on airplanes. They are a problem in the NYC Transit system.

Planes stop far less often than trains, and they take away the food before the stops. If the plane makes an unscheduled stop, either you die or you're so happy to survive you won't complain about having spaghetti on your nice new suit.

Ask a stupid question time, get a stupid question in response.

Is everyone in the airplance seated with a tray? (Yup)

Do you get served your meal at take-off/landing; or do you get served once the aircraft has reached cruising altitude AND the air is smooth? (about 30 after take-off and at least 45 minutes prior to landing)

Why do you suppose they do that? (prevent spills)

Does a Subway reaching a cruising speed for more than a few minutes? (Nope) Is everyone seated? (Nope)

Do you now understand how foolish that question was?
