HAHAHA YES!!!! You're awesome

Nice one. Looks like you need to have a cooperative seatmate, hmm?

Now you can't put your table down either.

yeah i reckon they should get rid of the buttons altogether.

i winds me up so bad when arrogant folks just lean on back with no regard for others

I know. at least lean back slowly... sheesh. I'm heading to hawaii to shoot a wedding on monday... maybe I'll try this... haha

How I keep motherfu#%s from putting cable ties on my seat back while they recline in comfort:

I put my size twelve Doc Martins up their a$$!

The problem is - getting those zip ties through security. How do you explain away having zip ties to the guy or girl who makes 8 dollars an hour trying to weed out Mr. or Ms. Terrorist :)

I'm confused. So none of you folks recline your seats on flights? Or do you just get pissed when other people do it? Hate to post the unpopular opinion but, given how much I pay for a flight these days, I'm gonna recline my freakin' seat. I'll do it slowly and am open to compromise if the one behind me is particularly large, and I will straighten it come chow time. Frankly, if I found that you zip tied my seat, I'd have the "air hostess" ask you to remove it, at which point I would proceed to be a total dick to you for the duration of the flight. Just sayin. I prefer polite communication over zip ties.

theres a typo... its motherfucker

how can u deny 'em the half an inch comfort?
heartless,)

i say everybody recline and goto sleep. :)

the problem isn't the seats going back.. the problem lies in that your table is connected to somebody else. it could just as easy be attached to your own chair but the designers are fixed it seems on doing the ergonomically stupid thing.
