Ok the name calling is a bit much youâre getting very excited about this.
Would anyone expect someone to keep their seat up on a long haul flight? Obviously no. So it can go down? Clearly yes. So once weâve established that one can put their seat down at all, away you go.
Psychologist Dr David Carey agrees and says seat recliners may have been overly indulged in childhood.
âSeat recliners are comfort seekers at the expense of others,â he says. âThey are likely to put their own needs ahead of others and be inconsiderate and intolerant of anyone who disagrees with them.
If youâre flying for more than 3 hours and not reclining your seat then youâre just a plain fucking weirdo. You recline, the person behind you reclines and everyone follows suit. Most proper airlines now have back seats that recline.
If youâre flying from Dublin to London and recline your seat on top of someone then youâre a proper cunt.
If you were a front seat passenger for a 3 hour car journey would you push back the seat and recline it on top of a passenger on the back, because, you know, the car manufacturer designed it that way?
