On An Airplane Next To A Fat Guy

Everyone who weighs more than 150 pounds, no matter their height, gets banged by the beverage cart.

I don’t know what it’s like to be short.
 
i always take aisle; windows are for children and flight n00bs

Wrong. Windows are the best seat, because you have something to lean for naps, and something cool to look at in air. Aisle seats provide you the joy of a flight attendant crashing into your leg mid nap, but also an easy escape route if you need to get up.

Window seat really depends on the position of the window relative to the seat. Sometimes it creates a nice cradle, other times it's disruptive.

A real boner-killer is when you have get the window in the exit row, but it has that half arm rest thing that is too small to use.

As they pack more and more people into a plane, the value of the aisle seat has decreased due to the aforementioned cart banging.

An underrated bad plane passenger is the person behind you that hoists themselves up by using your seat.

I have ran into the half armrest before, only on American flights, and I couldn’t agree more. Also had a window seat from a flight out of a cold airport that boarded in the middle entrance. So my window seat was probably about two feet from an ice cold air blast, with mouth breathers walking on my feet, no bueno.
 
Do you realize how annoying that is to everyone else on the plane ? It's one thing if it's a five-hour flight; otherwise, sit the fuck down.

I get up and walk to the bathroom and stand and stretch for a bit. If that is annoying to you, then you should reexamine your life.

I will also add I only do this if I'm in the aisle seat.
 
i think he's picturing the people who stand for a majority of a flight and/or wander around to chat with other members of their party

I agree this is mildly annoying but I can give a break since there is so little space. I will say if you are reclined though, it is partially on you if the person behind you does that.

If the flight is less than 3 hours in air time, no self respecting grown man should leave his seat to go the bathroom unless drunk. I get up and walk around on overseas flights because my ankles start to swell after 6 or so hours of sitting.

Also low key, airplane bathroom flush mechanisms are terrifying.
