All of that feels like an elaborate troll to make “and what’s the deal with airline food” feel like cutting-edge observational humor.

I’m having flashbacks to the pearl-clutching reviews of Romeo + Juliet
a man says a plague on both your houses in a blurry photo
Alt: The incomparable Harold Perrineau as Mercutio yelling, “A plague on both your houses!” He’s wearing an white button-down shirt, unbuttoned, and studded gun holster.

I cannot resist when he goes perpendicular
a man in a suit and tie is standing next to a woman
Alt: Vincent D’Onofrio as Detective Goren in Law & Order: Criminal Intent in the interrogation room, bending at the waist to quirkily look at a suspect, while Kathryn Erbe as Detective Eames sits looking tolerant of his eccentricities.
