I don’t recline (my back is happier with a more upright posture) but if the person ahead of me does... well, one has to deal gracefully with the preferences of others when going out in public. And it isn’t as though the seats even recline that much, at least in coach class.

Sadly, cabin pressure prevents door opening and those deserving souls from being ejected.

I fly American to CLT a lot for work from PA. It’s a 2 hour flight, and because I always buy the cheapest ticket I can, I am often in the last row, because the last row is the cheapest, and he got what he paid for.

There are also flesh and blood humans who might have back issues, and that recline is the difference between them being fairly uncomfortable, and being in significant pain for the whole flight.

They bought their seat, they have to sit in it. It’s not anyone’s responsibility to give up their seat features they rightfully paid for. If a person can’t sit in their seat and be comfortable without imposing their will on other passengers, they bought the wrong seat.

Thanks, dad.

If you don’t like the lack of space when the seat is reclined, then pay for a business or first class ticket.

Everyone here is a jackass: the recliner, the reclinee, the flight attendant, and (most significantly) the airlines who treat their customers like cattle.

Those cops walked away so they were obviously guilty.

Trump is ugly in body, mind and spirit. When he dies the world will be a better place.

What really strikes me about that photo is how bloated Trump looks. That is not a healthy looking man. I hope Satan calls his boy home soon. #NaturalCauses2020

$10k and they cover the startup costs? That’s a screaming deal. It makes sense that they have tens of thousands of applicants for only a handful of franchises. That’s like winning the lottery. A Chick-Fil-A franchise is about as close as you can get to a sure thing (and I’m sure their screening process further ensures

How is it gendered? I tell men and women both to shut the fuck up if they're not helping. 

À la lanterne!

Dear Mrs. Clinton

You are far worse than any Bernie bro. This type of ridiculous word vomit is how Trump won in 2016

Would it kill her to accept an ounce of blame for running a piss-poor campaign and condemning us all to 4-8 years of Trump? Fuck her and the corporate funded jet she flew in on. She’s was and is part of the problem and the best thing she can do to be part of the solution is to go get lost in the woods again.

That point has absolutely nothing to do with the makeup of the congressional districts those particular people come from. Women of color are probably the most important constituency of the Democratic coalition, and dismissing Sanders’ supporters as angry white men is bullshit when he has plenty of prominent supporters

In the doc, you’re brutally honest on Sanders: “He was in Congress for years. He had one senator support him. Nobody likes him, nobody wants to work with him, he got nothing done. He was a career politician. It’s all just baloney and I feel so bad that people got sucked into it.” That assessment still hold?

The hand-wringing over the “Never Hillary” guys is so disingenuous considering Clinton had her own group of backers (PUMA) that did the thing they’re claiming Bernie’s supporters do, but just back in ‘08.
