    As a part of a growing trend of law-abiding Americans not giving a crap about in-flight electronics rules, Alec Baldwin has been booted off a plane for playing Words With Friends on his iPad while his plane sat at the gate. Another passenger of the flight said that the plane actually had to go back to the gate to let Alec off, but either way, Alec's Words With Friends addiction was to blame. Alec Baldwin has taken his story of oppression to Twitter, where his Tweets have steadily devolved into a mad combination of American Airlines criticisms and Words With Friends fanaticism. Here's one of our favorites:

    United shud hav app onboard where u can play WWF w other passengers. American shud have app where u read the new testament w flt attendants

    Apparently Baldwin's mother never taught him how to hide the iPad when the flight attendent walks by, and then pull it back out for takeoff.
