"The Knee Defender"

If you recline the seat in coach you should be punched in the face.

Seriously. You’re a stupid fucking inconsiderate cunt.

Especially if the dude behind you is 6 feet or taller. Their legroom is already tight 

I wouldn't call it going apeshit, but he was definitely being a dick.
No. She was def bein a bitch.

I paid my dues at the back of airplanes. I’ve upgraded to exit row now.

I suppose I have a different definition of apeshit.

she paid for a seat. That seat has a recline button.  That seat also has a reading light and an air vent.  She paid for the use of those things for the duration of the flight.

It is also not against the law to fart continually or take ur shoes/socks off on a plane. Hell, or even DIPPPP. All are dick moves imho. 

BL: she's a B

 

 

 

Fuck people that recline.  It's rude and inconsiderate.  I will accidentally hit the back of your seat repeatedly with my knees, especially if I see you just dozed off if you do that.  

I’m 6’6” so while I’m not going to be a dick about it you better believe I think you’re an asshole if you recline especially when you’ve seen my crammed in there when you sat down.

Somebody up thread said it but some 5’7” beta reclines and it does absolutely nothing for him. Me on the other hand it just accentuates the torture.

Mainly fuck the airlines though. I go Redneck first class or upgrade all the way as much as I can.

If my seat will recline, I'll recline it all I want.  It's on the airlines.  If the person behind me has an issue they can either fuck off or take it up with the airline.  If the person in front of me reclines, even all the way, it's not a problem.  And if some cunt puts their shit under their seat in my footroom i call the flight attendant and get it moved.  The last time I flew a little emotional support dog in a luggage carrier in the row right behind me dropped a deuce shortly after takeoff and we all got to breathe dogshit vapors all the way.  Flying sucks and has only gotten worse over the years to the point that I have reduced my travel.

Hey you're ignorant of the rules and what that little button on your seat means. The button on your seat gives me and you the right to recline it, and I will if I want to.  Maybe you need to buy another seat somewhere else.  

You probably rail against people who zipper merge as well.

Seat recliners remind me of smokers who smoke in restaurants that still allow smoking.

Well, the airline doesn’t have a rule that a dog (which they allow passengers to bring) can’t take a dump. They gave that person a space for the dog, that dog had to crap, so apparently there’s no issue as far as you’re concerned. Breathe deep and enjoy that the other passenger got to do what they wanted, and to hell with just being considerate to others.

Nah, not really. 

lol at all these dipshits in coach expecting to be comfortable.  at all.    I bet they never fart, never cut in line, never leave little bags of dogshit on the trail.  never do anything with only their own interests in mind.

as to this douche, he's got his little movie.  he chooses to ruin it for himself.  he could probably lean his head against the seat and be more comfortable than sitting straight up with his head hanging down.  for me, I sleep better with my head in my arms on the tray table.  

and fuck her, too.

air travel is about the destination, not the journey.

This is simply another example of common courtesy losing out to "me first" or "me only" personalities.  Just because you are well within your rights to do something does not always mean that you should.  There is an overwhelming abundance of selfishness in our world, and it only appears to be getting worse.

The quickest fix is to repeatedly wet cough all over the recliner's head.  

This is why I like southwest, find a seat in front of a kid (grade school ish) and you can fully recline with zero care.

im 6'3 and i dont recline. people suck. good for him. 
You were 6'4" on the other thread about seat reclining.

I recline.  But I also have status and don't sit with the lolpoors.

Seat recliners shaved an inch off of my life

Does the no recline rule apply to long flights too? I really did not know not reclining was a thing. I do look at who's sitting behind me before I recline. If they're a big person or have a baby or something like that I don't recline, but otherwise I never thought it was potentially a rude thing to do. And what if the person in front of you is reclining? Not reclining in that situation would leave you in a pretty cramped space.

I am more of a slight recline guy. Just enough to take that 90 degree angle feeling out of the flight, but not too far that they could rest their chin on my headrest.

I'm 6'4" and I dread the possibility of the person sitting in front of me reclining the seat, but that's my problem.  If that guy had been doing that to me, they would have removed me from the plane in handcuffs when the plane landed.  Fuck him!

Recliners are dicks.  The recline feature is provides minimal benefit for the recliner and significantly ruins the experience for the person behind. 

The thing only reclines like 5 degrees, does it really provide THAT much comfort? 

The hilarious thing here is how everyone is 6'3" or taller when in the American population only 3.9 percent are 6'2" or taller.

I've never had a problem with recliners because as soon as I sit down I wedge my knees up against the seat so you aren't reclining it.

What do you mean? I'm on surly so I'm 6'7" with a 40" vertical baby!

How's that being tall working out for you mother fuckers now?  My manlet ass doesn't mind flying at all.

As an occasional seat recliner due to disc issues in my back, I’ve previously been unsympathetic both in this thread and shaggy to the seat recline complainers because that’s how the plane seats are designed to work. However this post has single handedly completely changed my view. Props for a great analogy.

Go head, love that warm glow from royally fucked men, doesn't bother me none. But, you recline your chair I will end you. i.e. stew in my seat and never do anything except maybe knee you in the back or *accidentally* drop my luggage on your head.

You'd lose that bet.  I never cut in a line, but I will and do go chemical on a plane.

The fucking seat reclines about an inch and a half.  Big fucking deal.  I don't typically recline unless I confirm the person behind me is reasonably small.  But she has that right, as selfish as it may be.  Dude is a cocksucking douche.

AA seats are so bad half the time I end up reclined without even knowing it. Then the flight attendant has to raise her voice to get me to fix it for landing, and the person behind me is even more pissed off that I didn't realize what happened.

Don't want me to smoke on the plane...take out the ashtrays.  Don't want me to to recline on the plane...take out the recliners.

Anyone who doesn't think people should recline on airplanes should take their angst out on the plane maker/airline, not the person reclining.  The functionality is there to use, just like the light and the fan.

I get it.  It isn't your responsibility to correct the failings of the airline.  But wouldn't it be great if everyone decided to make situations that weren't ideal better?  I suppose you walk past litter that has blown out of a trashcan or that someone else has thrown on the ground?  Why wouldn't you.  It's not your responsibility.  That is someone else's trash or job.  Making the world a better place is for all the other people.       

Who knew that being super tall turned you into a whiny little pussy the minute you step foot on an airplane?

No you're wrong. I've never had an issue with someone relclining a seat.
