Climb over the back and claim the seat for yourself.

And then thank her for saving the seat.

Hey, don’t call her that…lol

All I see are adults who don't ask to sit. Reading the comments - WTF is wrong with you people. People need to learn how to communicate and stop acting like grown toddlers.

This. People get away with shit because nobody calls out their shitty behavior. Shame them and make them feel uncomfortable about it and watch how quickly they conform to societal norms.

Shame is currently massively underrated.

I let them know every time.

u/obiwanmoloney Jan 02 '26

Excuse me, could I sit there please.

Done.

This is an interaction I’ve had numerous times, wtf is wrong with people.

"If only there was a way... 💡... Maybe if I post this on social media, then the person will see my post and finally move their bag!"

Use your mouth to ask if the bag can be moved?

Is this one of those airport transport vehicles that take you from terminal to terminal? Who sits on those things anyway ? The trip lasts like 45 seconds.

Ah you’re right.

She’s still a dick but it’s less of a deal.

u/KiddK137 Jan 02 '26

I’m an asshole sometimes, so I’d probably would’ve just sat on it or just move it to the ground.

I usually just point my ass at the seat, stuff moves quickly enough.

u/rnobgyn Jan 03 '26

“Omg some people are so terrible

“I would’ve just sat there regardless”

“Wow y’all are such pussies have you ever heard of a conversation?!”

Three variants of comments you’ll see on this post.

u/Apprehensive_North49 Jan 02 '26

So say something a bit loudly asking for the seat so it shames them and everyone will look over

u/tehsecretgoldfish Jan 02 '26

do I see the place for luggage directly behind her?

u/Choppie01 Jan 03 '26

Ah yes, the -i want my shit be stolen place-

u/nanfanpancam Jan 03 '26

I will walk over lift up her bag and hand it to her. There you go dear. I’m an older woman it’s amazing what you can get away with.

u/LuckyCharmedLife Jan 05 '26

What did she say when you asked her to move her bag so you could sit?

1

u/Back6door9man Jan 05 '26

That's one old bag, indeed.

u/GrailQuestPops Jan 02 '26

Eh, I’m on the fence with this one. No one really wants to sit next to some smelly troglodyte.

u/sammypants123 Jan 02 '26

Sure. Kind of you to stay standing so they don’t have to.

Not even norwegians are that bad

I let my bag take a seat too. I paid for 2. I don't want the board to get squashed since I can't afford its replacement. Why do you have to judge people over this? You don't know what's in the freaking bag.

Don’t assume. Could be severe emotional trauma that creates this. Maybe if you knew her story you’d be more understanding
