Guy in the pub who dried his hands under the drier after having a piss.

No washing. Just drying.

This post has been haunting me all day.

Wipe them on your trousers, obviously.


And use the door handle/plate to smudge off any last lingering damp streaks

All the way back is a dick move
Halfway is fine and expected

calstars, Wednesday, 5 June 2019 20:12 (four years ago) link

if i were going to i would probably ask the person behind me if they mind but the only reason i would want to is the person in front of me did :-\

If it's a redeye, it's fine (bring up during food service). If it's daytime, you should look behind you to gauge if they put their seat back or are short.

Yerac, Wednesday, 5 June 2019 20:17 (four years ago) link

Depends on how many extra rows of seats they've crammed in though doesn't it?

Stevolende, Wednesday, 5 June 2019 20:26 (four years ago) link

only acceptable if a) the person in front of you did it, and b) you are of a certain height

mookieproof, Wednesday, 5 June 2019 20:32 (four years ago) link

The worst are the people who luck out and get a row to themselves so they lie down AND put back all the seats.

Yerac, Wednesday, 5 June 2019 20:35 (four years ago) link

i had three rows to myself once, transatlantic flight on xmas eve, even then i don't think i put them back!

The Pingularity (ledge), Wednesday, 5 June 2019 20:46 (four years ago) link

What the shit kind of planes are u people going on where there even is an “all the way back” to the seat. It goes back like 4 inches on every plane I’ve ever taken

thewufs, Thursday, 6 June 2019 00:28 (four years ago) link

Ok I think airplane seats used to go back a little further, but not in like the last 10 years

thewufs, Thursday, 6 June 2019 00:33 (four years ago) link

I’m relatively tall, I’m fat, I paid 350 bucks for my round trip ticket, people in front of me put their seats back all the time. I’m putting my goddamn seat back

thewufs, Thursday, 6 June 2019 00:34 (four years ago) link

the only flights i ever take anymore are international flights but i will be fucked if i’m not putting my seat back every single time

BESIDES

the “upright position” means the seat-back is slightly forward anyway because airlines are assholes so “back” is barely reclining anyway

if that makes me a savage i dont care

Squeaky Fromage (VegemiteGrrl), Thursday, 6 June 2019 01:08 (four years ago) link

Everyone in the cabin putting their seat back is a kind of collective passive aggression that makes the flight less enjoyable for all

Agree with all of this. My last 3 plane trips were Newark/Norway (twice) and Newark/Stockholm. I'm 6'2". I'm putting my seat back as far as it will go, and if I have an aisle seat I am sticking my fucking legs out into the aisle. Planes fucking suck; do everything you can to maximize your personal comfort, because I guarantee you no one else on the plane (crew or fellow passengers) gives the tiniest fuck about you.

I am flying for a cumulative 54 hours this month. I am going to die. I did finally start using knee high compression socks though.

vg + unperson otm

I had to fly Spirit last week, the seats don't even go back! It is like leaning forward.

if a seat goes back it goes back

talk to the manufacturer if you have a problem with that

godfellaz (darraghmac), Thursday, 6 June 2019 06:49 (four years ago) link

thanks for this insight into the mind of a savage

ogmor, Thursday, 6 June 2019 07:38 (four years ago) link

we were consulted in the initial design fyi the system works

godfellaz (darraghmac), Thursday, 6 June 2019 08:03 (four years ago) link

amidst the discomfort there is a twinge of satisfaction at the systems failure to work when the person in front of me tries to recline their seat and it immediately hits my knees and doesn't move

ogmor, Thursday, 6 June 2019 08:16 (four years ago) link

the twinge id feel there would probably be my knees

godfellaz (darraghmac), Thursday, 6 June 2019 08:16 (four years ago) link

You know there's a cheap plastic widget you can buy which you attach to your tray table and which prevents the person in front of you from putting their seat back. I've never tried it but then again I normally fly business class.

There is literally nothing you can do to make flying Ryanair anything less than an ordeal tbf.

John Harris is a Guardian columnist (Tom D.), Thursday, 6 June 2019 09:01 (four years ago) link

... other than not flying Ryanair.

John Harris is a Guardian columnist (Tom D.), Thursday, 6 June 2019 09:01 (four years ago) link

At least Ryanair don't go long-haul.

Zeuhl Idol (Matt #2), Thursday, 6 June 2019 09:09 (four years ago) link

The last time I flew Ryanair was when my Easyjet flight to Belfast got cancelled and the Ryanair desk immediately doubled the prices of their flight to Dublin plus wanted to charge us something like £60 to print out boarding passes for the flight we were buying for immediate travel at the desk

(which we did not pay because the attendant at some tropical holiday company desk let us print them out on her printer for free, hurrah - and then Ryanair said they were the wrong size and printed out a new copy for us for free anyway...)

we remarked that Ryanair were the only airline that can piss you off more than the one that actually cancelled your flight

yep

aer lingus gone as bad lately tbh

mookieproof, Thursday, 6 June 2019 13:12 (four years ago) link

Supposedly if you buy a seat that reclines you are allowed to recline no matter what. So even those knee defender things won't help.

Yerac, Thursday, 6 June 2019 13:24 (four years ago) link

shoutout to the woman in front of me in the supermarket queue last night who paid what seemed like the bulk of a €40 grocery bill in coppers

van dyke parks generator (anagram), Thursday, 6 June 2019 14:38 (four years ago) link

I am six feet tall and on many airline seats, the space into which you are reclining is precisely where my knees are.

I don't recline unless the seat behind me is unoccupied.

Velcromancer (Ye Mad Puffin), Thursday, 6 June 2019 15:33 (four years ago) link

> €40 grocery bill in coppers

in the uk anything more than 20p in coppers isn't legal tender and they don't have to accept it. not sure whether that's 20p in 1ps and 20p in 2ps or 20p total.

koogs, Thursday, 6 June 2019 15:43 (four years ago) link

have i read that its 18 coins or is that a myth

godfellaz (darraghmac), Thursday, 6 June 2019 15:53 (four years ago) link

that seems random

deems is making a funny joke and is hurt that you* don't get it

*also i

mark s, Thursday, 6 June 2019 16:04 (four years ago) link

sorry, too busy reading about the 25p coin and the £5 coin which has the same name, size and shape.

koogs, Thursday, 6 June 2019 16:12 (four years ago) link

No wonder the supermarkets added a slot to the self serve coin bucket. Used to love throwing the coppers in on occasion.

Obligatory "legal tender only applies to debts and is irrelevant to supermarkets" post

Colonel Poo, Thursday, 6 June 2019 18:25 (four years ago) link

fyi im not making a funny joke

ive done tesco cashier time and it was either 18 individual coins or anything greater than 88c you didnt have to accept

but it always had the ring of idk freemenesque bullshit, always pushed in whispers by the established tillsitters never by anyone in authority

we shall never know i spose
