re: Heated Fight Over 'Legroom Gadget' Forces United Flight to Land

This is one of the most common arguments out there and there are people passionate about both sides, and one side will never convince the other that they are right.

The airlines consistently side with the recliner.

How they do... I have no fricking idea, honestly.

To me, if you have to recline your seat back and limit my already tiny space on the plane, you're being a baby. We're all uncomfortable on the flight. We all have a microscopic personal space on the plane. Suck it up for two hours. I mean, if you reline your enormous head into my lap, you're expecting me to man up and just deal with it, right?

"Just recline your seat back, then." - it's not about me reclining backward. I obviously don't need it. The issue is you're in my space forward of me.

But like I said before, according to the airlines, that space is not my space. It's actually yours.

So my opinion doesn't matter for shite. But I'll still say it anyway.

Pussies.
