I will do it, so people don't sit next to me.

Unless it's full to the brim, then I might let someone sit next to me.

Somebody cute might sit next to you. You never know.

Hah! Like that's ever gonna happen!

To me it's just a bother, I don't mind people sitting next to me as long they don't try to force interactions with me.

I hate it the most when I have my earphones in and wan't to sleep but people try to talk with me to force a conversation when I'm not intereted.

If I'm in the mood to talk I will remove my earphones.

Are you saying their baggage isn't cute?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago

Nah, I already have enough emotional baggage I can't work out or fix, don't really need any more.

Tap for spoilerThough I take my bags at around 60% free space

I only do it when there are obvious empty rows left, otherwise it feels selfish because most people don't want someone next to them either
