I sat next to Steve Jobs on a business flight back in 07. Asked him if he'd ever seen that spoof MadTV did about a product called iPad. He said he didn't think it was funny.
I told him it'd be cool if they made something like a laptop without a keyboard, where you could just write on the screen and it would be easier to carry. He laughed and said that was stupid.
I asked him what he thought of the chicken Kiev. He said he thought it sucked.
I put my headphones back on and watched movies. He never got up to use the bathroom, so I wasn't disturbed and eventually fell asleep.
When we landed, he said he really had to take a pee, so I let him out so he could leave the plane before me. He said thank you.
I couldn't tell if he was being sarcastic.
Or if he was actually Steve Jobs.
True story.
