This traveler took a hands-on approach to annoying their seatmates.
An unaware plane passenger has become traveler enemy no. 1 on social media after a video surfaced of them reaching their hands behind their headrest and entirely covering the seatback TV screen for the row behind them.
The clip, shared on Reddit, shows the fidgeting fingers as they pick their nails and poke around the display — all while a show is playing.
The Reddit user who posted the video, @d_p_e_k, described the incident secondhand on behalf of his cousin, who captured the footage while on a “long haul flight.
Very quickly, and for months after, many online shot down the handsy hassler as one commenter called it “s–t behavior.”
Many suggested more diabolical ways to make the problem go away.
“Fake sneeze and flick some water on him,” someone suggested.
“You should have held his hands,” wrote another.
“Get an ice cube and wet their hands and then lick your lips when they look at you,” sneered a fellow user.
“I would’ve wiped a booger on his hands,” a fourth sinisterly added.
However, others criticized the traveling cousin for choosing to take a video instead of addressing the issue.
“Did your cousin’s mouth not work?” jeered one Reddit user.
“Communicate. It’s not that hard to politely ask that they stop whatever’s causing the issue. Usually, it’s just a simple mistake and they’ll apologize and stop,” someone else advised.
“if you don’t say something you deserve it,” concluded another.
The screen being screened joins a bevy of recent eccentric air travel behavior — all of which is second class to the infamous Tiffany Gomas’ “not real” breakdown.
