Heh heh!
A baby screaming would make airline food better by its sheer distractive power.
I remember sitting next to this poor woman who was clearly at her wits' end with a small baby (as in too young to communicate with in any way other than 'HERE'S YOUR FUCKING BOTTLE YOU SCREAMING SOD' and the comments she was getting made me want to smack the old fuck behind us right in the face.
Mrs Boris is till grateful to this day that when her and the kids came out to Australia, they were perfectly behaved on the flight. Yet to see if they do the same when we move back...

Only yesterday
My flight was only 3/4 full, and just before takeoff a couple let their 10-year-old-ish son move from the other side of the plane to empty seats just behind me.

As the flight attendent came round to check seatbelts, she noticed he was alone and asked who his parent were as he needed to be near them at takeoff.

The parent's response?

"He snores when he's asleep, so we didn't want him near us".
