What if people could stop being self absorbed for a minute and not put their wants ahead of using something that isn’t theirs? Kyuzo is right.

Lol what?! Well played.

I am using the statistical definition which actually does mean the average. (https://statisticsbyjim.com/basics/normal-distribution/)

I’ve said the same above.

Or in that definition is being used to introduce a synonym, but let’s move on.

Abnormal literally means “deviating from the normal or average”, so maybe you don’t understand what it means.

You do realize that you are prioritizing your comfort over the other person’s right?  I’m also over 6 feet tall, flying is uncomfortable, get over it.

I’m sure your knitting has never inconvenienced someone else on a plane...

I recline because I’m 6'1" and have a bad back.  Sorry that it slightly inconveniences you, but it’s really not that big of a deal.

I’m 6'1" and recline on every flight due to a bad back, however if I saw you behind me as long as it wasn’t a long flight I would give you the space.  If it was a long flight I would look for another place to put my reclining butt.

It’s the 98th percentile in terms of height, it’s abnormal.

In the US, anyone over 5'10" is abnormally large. I’m “only” 6'1", which puts me in the top 91st percentile. You’re in the 98th percentile, we’re abnormal. 

Can’t we all just Be Best?

Never been snuck up on by a Prius?  There are plenty of vehicles already that are incredibly quiet.

Sorry, but no. I’m dutch and it’s very slightly above average.

I mean, you’re not that tall and the bike looks tiny. As a person of the same height I’m not paying $30k to look like a bear on a tricycle.

I disagree that people have the right to be inconsiderate of the people around them because there is a very small chance that a mass shooting could happen. I’m not trying to discount mass shootings, but that has almost nothing to do with the above article.

Sorry but I don’t accept that as the common sense answer on this one.
