No way does your phone accidentally do all of those in your pocket before the screen shuts off. If it was the exact same story except the guy "accidentally" sent a picture of his dick to his female co-worker, everyone would be calling him out. It really reads like it's an attempted "tripped and fell dick-first" sort of retroactive justification. He might have e.g. accidentally texted it to the wrong person or something but there was definitely more intent involved than he's letting on.

Play posted:I don't believe you'd actually do that. You'd quiet down once I made it clear I"m not putting it up, ever. And if you didn't I'd sic the flight attendants on you What are the flight attendants gonna do? You're just making it a politeness competition then, and the one who can convince the flight attendant they're the most reasonable wins. 'Im sorry, I dont mean to, it's just with his seat reclined my knees happen to be hitting the back. I'm trying ever so hard to be polite! If he put his seat up, he would be able to be comfortable.' Then as soon as she's turned, my knees return to their position digging into your spine and kicking your kidneys. Sometimes I might take off my shoes and socks just to make some quick gross appearances for ya, before you have time to get anyone to handle it but enough time to really be nasty. I might also stand up to 'go to the bathroom' and then fart straight on your loving head with glee, or spill my drink on you 'standing up'. If we're trapped here together and you decide to make my time difficult, I will spent the entire journey thinking of creative ways to gently caress with you in kind. At least it gives me something to do to pass the time. I'm not saying there's a right or wrong here, but that there's no 'One Way' and if you ignore the requests of the people around you because beep boop 'you can recline the seat so it means you're allowed', you're the rear end in a top hat who deserves whatever they get. The essence of dealing with people is listening and negotiating with them to get along together. If you decide not to even do that bare minimum bc I Can Press Button, go gently caress yaself.

My ex boyfriend just asked for an old sex toy back to re gift to his new girlfriend. [all mid 20s] Soooo he bought us a long distance vibrator shortly before we broke up last may. It's been at my place (I haven't been able to find it but I haven't looked that hard either). He has just texted me asking for it back because he's dating somebody new, she's going away for the holidays, he wants to use it with her, and he "assumes I haven't used it myself". We never used it so I guess it's still kind of new, although it's very much unwrapped and clearly not actually new. The thing is, he lied to me for our entire relationship (a year and a half) about basically his entire life, so I think it's safe to assume he wouldn't tell her it was ours. For now I've told him that I can't find it, and also that it's rude to re gift an old sex toy from a previous relationship. I mean, that poor girl. I guess I just want some external opinions. This is hella weird, right? tldr ex boyfriend wants our old sex toy for his new girl, weird or not?

You're just making it a politeness competition then, and the one who can convince the flight attendant they're the most reasonable wins. Please calm down guys, I'd say failing to understand a clear joke (sic the flight attendant on you? seriously?) is pretty drat boomer. That was meant to be the most obvious troll but apparently it wasn't obvious enough It's funny because I hardly ever put my seat back, only on long long flights, all I'm talking about is whether it's a normal thing to do. I think it is, because I see most people doing it on almost every flight I take. I just flew from Thailand last week and I wouldn't be surprised if every single person had their seat back at one time or another. That's all I'm trying to figure out, and I'd say so far it's about an even split between people like me who see everyone doing it and people who seem to think it's some kind of forbidden maneuver. I'm really confused at the variation there Also I know you almost certainly don't do poo poo when the person in front of you puts their seat down, except have power fantasies about kicking the seat like a child that you can post on something awful later. People are acting like throwing a tantrum is the ADULT way to handle it when my recommendation is to simply deal with it because it WILL happen regardless

You're just making it a politeness competition then, and the one who can convince the flight attendant they're the most reasonable wins. Oh yeah? Try it, tall-y. I'd get up so fast that in your confusion and fear you'd hit your mile-high head on the overhead storage compartment, dazing you and opening the compartment of precarious luggage that would strike you down. That would give me the opportunity to open every compartment the entire length of the plane, rending your height a handicap as you could no longer navigate without hunching over. Enraged, you'd try to attack me but your gangly limbs would no longer be able to fit in the confined space and I'd easily dodge you as you trip, legs akimbo. You think you own this plane? Think again, kiddo. You thought this was the flight deck but it's the fight deck and you've already loving lost.

Dear tall people, Please accept that we live in a capitalist hellscape and you are now obliged to spend $25 or $50 more to live in the "comfort plus" zone of the cabin, which is where there is extra legroom to return us to the halcyon days of the early 1990s, so that your kneecaps don't break. If you don't have enough money for this, but do have enough money to fly, I am deeply confused. Sincerely, An rear end in a top hat resigned to living in a world where we pay extra money for comfort.

the people who insist that you aren't supposed to recline your seat are also the ones who under-report their overtime because the company says it's really struggling this year and it would really help them to not have to pay as much

Maybe I'm getting the moniker wrong, but on ordinary Delta flights from SF to Denver, or SLC to Minneapolis, I can pay $25 or $50 to move to the front half of the cabin and get 2-3 inches of extra leg room. It's not a business-class upgrade costing hundreds of dollars like I'd have to spend on an international/intercontinental flight, and it's not first class.

I'm 6'2", recline at will person ahead of me. We're all in this together and you paid for a seat same as I did. Taking out my frustration at uncomfortable travel arrangements on fellow passengers makes as much sense as skipping out on the tip at a restaurant because I make minimum wage too. Also the guy who said he'd dump his drink on you and fart in your face is a complete psychopath and I hope he gets to explain his reasoning to the police that meet him at the gate when the flight takes an emergency stop over an unruly passenger.

We've done it, we've found the most tedious derail. e: If I recline my seat while the plane is taking off from the treadmill, do I tip the captain 10% or 9.999999999%? It makes a difference to me because I'm trying to save up enough money to pay for a reasonably priced wedding, which is hard to do on a six-figure salary.
