Morons amaze me. It's not your seat so move your briefcase.

Sat on it lol

But that would likely be less damaging for the briefcase than heavy me.

That he threatened me with a beating is double funny.

I've wracked my brain, and I can't think of a bad thing I've done on a flight. Either I am in denial, or I'm a really boring person.

I was once walking in the aisle when there was sudden turbulence and I bounced off a FA in a perhaps personal manner. (I think there was a 70s dance called 'the bump'). However, that was out of my control, and I've been quite careful to make sure that it never happens again.

Back in the days when business travelers (like me) traveled with hanging garment bags, I would always make it a point to lay my bag flat and assist other passengers who wanted to put travel luggage under my bag. One day, flying to Louisville, a young man refused my help and went out of his way to crumple my bag. I readjusted the baggage cabin but then a young lady came along who needed help with a bag and again he crumpled my garment bag. An attendant saw him and admonished him but I had to listen to his smart remarks all flight. Finally when the plane was deplaning I lectured him in a very loud voice that there was a place for people like him and it was called a bus. Several of the other passengers who were privy to the entire event applauded in support.

Same here.

The worst thing I can think of is saying no to Krug and the FA looked at me like I was crazy for saying no to as much champagne as I could handle. I drank lemonade all through the 7 hour flight.

The only thing I could think of is a time when I was boarding and my stomach started to feel uneasy. As I was walking past Economy Plus I let out a fart. It was silent but it left a horrible stench for a while as people started coughing and gagging from where I let it out at.. I felt better and no one ever figured out it was me.

I do feel bad for the people

Recently watched the movie Sully while the very nervous flyer, in the seat next to me, looked on.

An older very rich friend said she, her words, let fluffy off the leash, in an expensive dress shop. She said she loves people walking thru it. She also said, people think rich folks don't fart.

Watched Flight once on an MD-80 flight.

When I was young working on capitol hill, my congressman was always really late getting to National Airport for flights home. More than once (way before security was much of a thing) I had to run through the terminal, down the jetbridge, and pound on the door to get them to hold the flight. And yes, they would open the door for a congressman. I always felt bad for everyone on the flight that he was so inconsiderate, but I certainly didn't want him to miss the flight because finding an alternative would have become MY problem.

Since we've resurrected this thread, I'll add my tale. I was seated in economy cross country from ORD to the west coast and since it was a very early flight I decided to recline my seat and try to get some sleep. Now, I know how it is get a reclining seat in the face, so I always do so slowly and generally not all the way as a courtesy. The woman sitting behind me apparently wasn't happy with this so she started pounding on and shaking my seat back. I turned around and said, "Is there a problem?" and she basically screamed at me and told me not to recline my seat. In the most condescending voice I could muster I told her, "Had you asked politely I would have gladly moved my seat back but since you acted like a spoiled child I'm going to keep my seat reclined the entire flight." She just glared at me. I only felt bad later because I smiled back at her at baggage claim and she broke down in tears. There was obviously something more going on with her that day but still no excuse for that behavior.
