Probably, but I do try and not let it show overtly, despite these thoughts. It would be a terrible thing to show a lack of compassion or civility.
I try to have the same indifferent look on my face for everyone. I really don't want anyone occupying the seat next to me. Even the beauty queen. After all, for every great looking lady, there is someone, somewhere tired of her $h!*.
The real issue for me is Delta seems to be flying more CRJ's than ever and no matter who is next to me, there seems to be no room.
I have been seated next to some smaller people who could get flagged 5 yards for encroachment as well. It is all about attitude.
