Have you ever been in one of those hold patterns?

A few years ago there were thunderstorms at YYZ, so we had to hold in circles like that. The humidity, with the turning was nauseating, especially the smell of the vomit from the guy in the row behind me.

Before you realize what's going on, it's kind of unsettling. My first though was there was an issue with the plane, then thought "This is a 737-Max 8, it just came off the assembly line, there isn't anything wrong with these, I'm perfectly safe."

Side note: sometimes I'm an idiot and completely wrong... don't tell my wife.
