Back in the mid 2000s, my Sydney-LA flight was delayed. I asked why and was told it was because of the uncontrolled re-entry of a Russian MIR spacecraft … somewhere in the Pacific Ocean. I volunteered to the counter staff, “I say we go for it; if we’re lucky we’ll be close enough to see it mostly burn up.” She said, “Sir, this isn’t a vote. Please sit down.”

Good for you. Most people find it difficult to admit they’ve done something assholish.
