For context, I lean my seat back on flights so I’m not saying not to do it at all. The problem that occurred was on take off. This guy had his seat back from the get go and the flight attendant came around and told him to put his seat up a couple times. Eventually the flight attendant helped him put it up. As soon as she left, he leaned his seat back again.

Such a dick move. The whole entire flight (2 1/2 hours) I dug my knees into his seat… hard. I did it at different spots too. I know he could feel it because he kept adjusting and eventually gave a quick glance back but was too sissy to say anything.

Did my knees and muscles hurt while doing it? Absolutely, but it was well worth it!

As an added note, it’s a safety hazard to passengers to have your seat reclined during takeoff and landing.
