I’m thinking seriously about stealing his sock.

    If you’re going on down to Nashville looking for a sole to steal, look under your seat.

    Not calling anybody a liar, but for me to be able to continue in society I’m telling myself this is staged.

      Oh it wasn’t staged.

      I would say I don’t know the guy, but given his foot poked and carressed my leg at various points during the flight, I would argue we are at some greater level of intimacy.

    Fuck that. I’d ask him to stop and then tell the flight attendant immediately if it doesn’t. If he wants a footrest, he’s welcome to purchase a second ticket for the seat in front of him.

      I agree with you, but (as someone who’s reconfigured the seating on a lot of airplanes) we gotta hold airlines accountable for the continued war on leg room.

        This is the correct response.

        Yes it’s weird to take your shoes off and stretch out on a flight, but the real problem is the airlines being cheap motherfuckers.

        As a tall person that must now pay extra for the privilege of not having to cut my legs off to fly comfortably, I appreciate having another soldier in the fight.

          I have to pay for business class because I’m stupidly tall and even that was a little tight. Every time my wife wants me to fly internationally I avoid the conversation like the plague because I don’t want to have to pay for first class.

        Other passengers shouldn’t be a collateral damage.

        I literally can’t fit on planes with 30" seat pitch.
