Petty Acts of Revenge That Seriously Draw the Line

The Dark Knight Rises

Warner Bros.

Once upon a time I was waiting for a plane and had gotten there about an hour early and staked out my comfy seat near the charging station. I got up to get some food and asked an elderly gentleman to watch my stuff (which was in the seat for me).

When I came back a woman and her brat were sitting in my seat and my stuff was just thrown on the floor, the elderly gent apologized and said that he said the seat was taken but the woman asserted that couldn’t be done.

Perturbed, I gathered my stuff and camped out elsewhere. When the time to board came she went on with her kid and I got into line. Upon seeing where they were sitting on the plane I decided I had an idea.

I sat directly in front of the woman and her son (who was like 6 but for whom she still had not purchased a ticket and had sit in her lap, to the annoyance of her aisle mates) and waited.

Once we had reached cruising altitude I took out my laptop and started watching Batman: The Animated Series. I suspected it would make the kid a tad rambunctious – craning his head over the seat to watch it too – what I did not expect was for him to kick his mother in the face during the endeavor.

Her nose was bleeding for the rest of the flight and one of the flight attendants thought it might be broken. DCdictator
