You recline with that atttude that " you payed for it" Then im kicking the crap out of the back of your seat with my knees ... me and my knees pay for that same space you content is yours...

the airlines advertise they offer more legroom, not reclining room when, I buy the ticket, so truth in advertising I paid for the legroom I'll damn well get the leg room.

I just flew American this Wednesday from LA to DC

The Airline was talking up all "we've just remodeling giving you 2 inches more leg room! "

And then I had the one guy in front of me recline the whole flight and take all that extra leg room paid for from me...

so truth in advertising.... the airline advertises they are selling more legroom, not more reclining room ... I've got first dib on that space...a hole!

Something I see related to this topic, is a sneering attitude towards people who shopped for price when riding in air busses.

Just wait until the airlines switch over to the new "bicycle seat" style of seating:

I’m beginning to believe that flyers are becoming part of the “whip me, beat me until I begin to enjoy it” crowd.

Equating reclining your seat to belching and scratching, it’s clear that Steve Chapman comes down on the side of the tall guys.
