1. Thanks for this!!

I just woke up. So, I'm in the process of drinking my coffee and making myself coherent. I had to read
this twice. At first, it didn't register. Then, I read it again--and visualized the entire thing...and
I laughed my ass off.

You really have to visualize it. It's like something from a movie. I picture this guy, after being "propped
up" by the person in front of him, using his seat as leverage--going "ahhh...that's better" as he's now tilted
up and toward the ceiling.

Very subtle, the way the OP wrote this...which I'm sure, really packed a wallop of humor for you.

My 8-year old asked me what was so funny. I wasn't sure what to say!

Again, thanks for the morning jolt. Between your post and my coffee, I'm awake now.

4. you really just have to visualize it

Perhaps because I have not slept for 28 hours it was funnier to me than it is you....and perhaps because I have been popped back in one of those seats.
