And how much does the average idiot way? My guess is 120 pounds plus 50 pounds for checked luggage and another 25 pounds for their carry on

As much as it will pain you to know, I don't in fact ooze into other's seats and aside from being 6'4" I sit quite comfortably in a normal Y seat and I too dislike when someone's girth impedes my space; however its not down to me to spew vitriol in an online forum as a means of correcting the issue, although I suppose if you harbored a few more brain cells you might understand half of what's being said.
