I have simply become unwilling to play this "luggage space in the overhead" game any more. Every time I fly, I check my "clothes" bag and put my laptop roller above.

Occasionally someone (who almost invariably has two carry-on bags and sometimes is trying to find space for both!) will "challenge" me with "Is this your bag? It belongs under your seat!", to which I respond "I'm sorry, it's my only carry-on and I want the space for my feet".

Maybe I'm the DYKWIA. Too bad.
