If it weren't for you, the short man's thumbs would be long gone.

My favourite is the person in the seat in front trying to recline their chair, immediately hitting my knees since they are already embedded in their seat, then thinking that there is some mistake and trying again WITH FORCE. I'm always nice but my best explanation to the person in front was "Ma'am, I'm pretty tall and cramped in here, so unless you're able to stow my legs in the overhead compartment, you won't be able to recline on this flight. Sorry." She laughed and apologized and everyone was full of love and lollipops.

I honestly don't know why airplane steats are allowed to go down on domestic flights.

The illusion of comfort.

That's a good point, there's never been a time when I needed a chair to lean back a fraction of an inch to seriously enjoy being stuffed into a chair for a few hours straight.

Great, one more thing to worry about when I have to fly somewhere...

What's this from?

To be completely honest I have no idea, I was sifting through some old gifs I had and this one came up

[–]megapeanut6'4" | 193 cm 1 point2 points ago

Well, it's fucking amazing. Reminds me of a Zucker or Mel Brooks movie! I want it.

The video has a logo for 1time airline at the end.
