Justice Was Made
As the passenger insisted on reclining his seat, the tall man said: "I wish I could but I physically can't". But instead, the man started pushing his seat as hard as he could over and over again, as if the man's legs would somehow magically shrink. He even called a flight attendant and demanded a new seat!
The stewardess told him there were no other seats available, so the annoying passenger demanded to speak to the pilot, and guess what? The pilot showed up, and offered a seat in first class to... the tall man! Justice had been made, but the seat-inclining was outraged.
