Inopportune

I was sitting there with my headphones on and that "I'm listening to my iPod" expression on my face, i.e., blank stare forward. I had the reading light out, and apparently, the earphones weren't visible.

"Sir, is your reading light inopportune?" saith the flight attendant.

It took me asking her to repeat herself three times to realise she had no idea what "inopportune" meant, and that she probably meant something along the lines of "inoperative".
