Sounds like me on a plane. I hate flying - not because I'm scared of it (I'll happily read books about air disasters on planes) but because it's so cramped, incovenient, and thoroughly tedious (especially in cattle class seating). I really ought to have mastered teleportation by now, but I'm stuck with planes until I do.

On the plus side, no one ever bothers me. My wife tells me I ooze hostility when travelling, so that's useful. On one occasion, I was flying somewhere with the family. My wife and the children had three seats opposite me and I had an aisle seat next to them. After a while she began laughing in silent mirth. I asked what was wrong, and she said I looked so pissed off she couldn't stop laughing. Apparently I looked hilarious.

Great story by the way.
