Today, for an eight-hour flight to Copenhagen, Denmark, I paid extra to get a seat offering more leg room. Unfortunately, the man behind me was so tall, his knees were pressing against my back the entire flight. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I paid $140 extra to get more comfort during a flight. The man behind me was so tall that his legs didn't let me recline the seat, and complained every time I tried to during the night. FML
Today, I booked the cheapest seat on a six-hour flight to save money. The person next to me spent the entire trip asleep on my shoulder, and I felt too awkward to wake them up. By the time we landed, my neck hurt so much that I had to explain to guards and baggage claim staff why I couldn't turn my head. FML
Today, I was supposed to fly home for my dad's funeral, but the woman in the seat next to me was so obese, her bulging flesh left absolutely no way for me to sit in my seat. I complained to the stewardess, who then forced me to leave the plane just for raising my voice in frustration. FML
Today, I had to spend a long bus ride with my chest pressed against the window, because some mammoth of a woman decided to squeeze her double wide ass into my seat. FML
Today, on the airplane, the kid behind me kicked my seat hundreds of times, while the big bald guy next to me farted deadly ones repeatedly. I was on a non-stop 14-hour flight. FML
Today, I'm on a 14-hour flight, stuck next to a large man whose rancid body odor is eclipsed only by his constant flatulence, which he loudly blames on me every time. On my other side is his friend who laughs like a moose at everything. There are no empty seats and no-one will trade with me. FML
Today, I had a several-hour-long flight. I was put in a seat at the very back of the plane. Before the plane even lifted off, a woman took a dump in the bathroom that I stank for the rest of the flight. Whenever I tried to get some sleep, the flight attendant walked past, savagely jostling me. FML
Today, I was on a plane in the aisle seat; the guy in the middle was encroaching on my space, and the window seat was not taken. The stewardess noticed my discomfort and suggested the guy move so we both had space. He had bought both seats and "liked sitting in the middle." FML
Today, I have an eight hour transatlantic flight and the person sitting next to me has already filled his third sick bag. This wouldn't be quite so bad were we not still at the terminal with passengers still boarding the plane. FML
Today, I boarded a trans-Atlantic flight by myself, and struck up a nice conversation with the passenger across the aisle. Before we even took off, the man in front of me unbuckled, stood to face me, and asked me to please shut the hell up. "It's a 9 hour flight, and you're VERY loud!" FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

you should have switched seats since he needed the leg room and then you wouldnt have someones knees in your back the whole flight.

I'm 6'7 and I hate selfish short bastards that take the extra room and don't share it with someone who truly needs it!

Hey, at least the OP can afford to fly on an airplane and upgrade seats, I bet more than half of you have never traveled

Hey, what's w/ that? More $$$ the more 1 can buy. An 8 hour flight being uncomfortable seems forever.

There IS one person here who needs help, but sadly it isn't OP. Vballchick, I'll give you three guesses...

Has anyone noticed that Scandinavia is shaped like a snake eating a worm. Denmark is said worm.

Eh.. Well, no, I haven't. Sweden and Norway looks a bit like a tiger to me. But I don't see the snake anywhere?

Today I tried to get a seat with enough leg room so that my long legs could comfortably stretch out. Instead the bitch in front got the last seat. Enjoy my knees in your back.

he was probably just mad that you took the extra leg room seat before he did!

so your fml is about how 1st class was wrecked because you were not comfy enough on your way to Denmark? don't be so whiny. during your flight people died, were told they had an incurable disease, were told their children were dead, etc etc. your life does not sound so f'd
