        If you haven't already, please do one about the people that stand hunched over for 15-20 minutes as soon as the plane lands. QUICK, STAND UP SO WE CAN JUST STAND HERE.

        It's also funny that they run off the plane just so they can stand for 15 minutes as close to the baggage carousel as possible and block everyone from getting their bags.

        I guess they design the planes so there won't be sufficient overhead space for every passenger to stow one carry-on bag. It's just more fun when you inject a little competition into the process.

        There's not enough space for everyone to bring 3 bags and put NONE under the seat in front of them. The airlines started this when they started charging more for checked bags.

        It's not his seat he's protecting, but the privilege of placing his carry-on bag above such seat and not 4-5 rows behind. Some people really stretch the definition of "carry-on".

        Line of 100 people form around "that guy" without a hint of the flight crew anywhere in sight. Man makes sure everyone knows he was there first.

        No, they just block the way preventing everyone else from boarding. Every. Damned. Time.

        My personal favorite is the guy who blocks the baggage claim chute.

        Actually, a little known provision in the GOP tax cut allows the top 1% to board any airplane whenever they want to, whether they have a ticket or not.
