Call buttons and other annoying things!

I never use the call buttons as I feel it harkens back to the days when people used to "click" their fingers in the direction of waiters in restaurants, (do they still do that?). Instead I prefer to go to the galley and ask for what I want, it also serves as an excuse to stretch my legs. However I can see that the call button can be a god send for those less able to move freely ie. Families with young children, pax seated in the middle of sleeping fellow pax, older less mobile pax etc. I do like to have an aisle seat as I'm prepared to take the odd trolley buffeting whilst having the option to get up when I want without having to clamber over my fellow travellers, especially in the unlikely event of an emergency evacuation!! My pet hate whilst flying on long sectors are pax in the seat behind mine who can't get out of their own seat without pulling themselves up on the back of mine, I do enjoy a glass of red wine inflight but I prefer to drink it not wear it!!
