Today, I was forced to spend an extra $318 for another plane ticket to Dallas. The ticket wasn't for my daughter, my mom, or my sister, but for the quarter of my butt that apparently needs its own seat. FML

well you gotta feel sorry for the person who might have been sat next to you if you hadn't bought the ticket. They would only get 3/4 of a seat for their butt otherwise :P

hippo hips spend another 316$ on a gym membership!

I didn't know they were actually doing that to people. If you actually do take up more than one seat, FML but...not really anyone else's fault.

well if the airline just booked an anorexic person to sit next to him then everything would be ok

maybe op has genes that give him a big butt. maybe it's not necessarily all fat..

okay - HELL NO! people are in a tizzy over the new scanning security thingies - imagine how degrading it'll be to have to weigh yourself right before going on a plane? that your ticket is proportional to how much you ate the night before? That someone who's only 4'6" pays much less than a average or slender 6'4" person who can also fit in one plane seat? I've actually had the misfortune of flying on a plane that did NOT have this policy. The man I sat next to was so large I could not lower the armrest. I was a few years younger so I did not speak up, but rest assured I would do so in a heartbeat. That flight was hell and it was unfair that I had to share my seat that I paid good money for with an oddly large stranger. if you can't fit in one, buy two. sorry, but it's the only fair thing to do.

You must be HUGE. I'm pretty damn fat myself and I fit in a plane seat nicely.

this is either a fail a fyl or a ydi. if ur fat ydi. loss weight. if ur a guy it's a fail. haha. if ur a girl then fyl for having a nice big ass. depends watt ur r. and it's a ydi if u a fat girl or a fat guy.

the airlines would never make smelly, people who talk incessantly or the person who has to sit by the window, but has to get up every 15 minutes pay extra fees. all of you should just man-up.

Theoretically, you can do something about those annoyances yourself. I always pack a music player and those foamy earplugs for the talkers, and some scented lotion for under the nose in case of any nearby stinkers. (Learned that one the hard way; El Al served bagels, lox, and hardboiled eggs on the way to Israel. Worst airplane food ever.) You can trade seats with a frequent pisser. Once you're seated next to an obese person, though, you're SOL.
