The expression of the man on the screen says it all.

Step 1 - put your foot (with shoe) up and kick their foot out of the way

Step 2 - slam the closet door closed

Problem solved, message delivered

If the shoe comes back, throw a blanket on it so you don't have to stare at it - and no, it's not acceptable.

No, it's not acceptable and you should get up and tell the person to move their foot...

Always so much passive aggression here (including from me).

If it bothers you, ask him to move his foot.

With shoes on and not in your air space ... I'd let it slide.

I'd just slowly match my foot against his, and then apply pressure!

Is the offender in a backward facing seat? Then blame it on the airline. <joke>

um, could also be OP in the aft-facing seat ... just sayin' ... (but the "blame it on the airline" line still applies )
