We Need To Come To A National Consensus On Airplane Seat Reclining

Most airline seats are built for the person that is 5'8" and 140 pounds.

I'm neither.

At 6 feet, my knees go into the back of the seat in front of me before or after reclining. The best thing for me as a taller person is to actually recline slightly so that I can get a better angle for my knees to get underneath the seat in front of me and extend throughout the flight.

When you're 5'2" (like I'm sure that author is), you don't have a fucking clue.
 
Every flight, the first thing I do when I set is to rest my knees up against the person's seat in front of me, but not hard enough for them to notice. Every flight, that dipshit in front of me tries to recline but meets an impenetrable wall. The person then jabs the seat against my knees twice, thinking the seat is stuck. Then he/she turns and sees my knees resting there. I then get a dirty look, and an asshole huff. I then reply with, "next time bring a neck pillow"

Every so often I run into a dumbass that wants to check every 15 minutes or so, to see if I moved my knees, which I never do. It's only ok to recline when the seat behind you is empty or some kid is behind you. Other than that, pay first class/business class or GTFO.

All of this talk about airplane seats and no one is giving odds that Fetters has to ask for the seat belt extension AND gets charged for a 2nd seat.
 
Every flight, the first thing I do when the crew gives the okay, is recline my seat. Once in a while, some dipshit behind me gets his panties in a wad because I banged into his legs and forced them out of the way. Then he turns to his wife and whimpers.

Be glad you've never sat infront of me because I'd make your flight a living hell.
 
I've actually had dumb fucks turn around and say, I'm trying to recline ... can you please move your legs.

I smile as I drive my knee in a little deeper.

I also make sure they get the top of their head tickled from my newspaper.

I probably have. You probably whimpered like the rest of them.
 
If you put your seat back in my lap, be prepared for my knees and feet constantly bumping and kicking your seat. I can keep that up for hours. If you don't like it, the solution is simple, get the fuck out of my lap and give me some room.

The latter depends on how nice the stewadist feels like being. But the former, without question, 100%.
