AIBU about the man on the bus?

He said I don't think you should sit there. I said said excuse me what are you on about? He said the bags are massive and take up the fly space.

Well that was it. I was so angry, it wasn't a big amount. How dare he say that to me. I shouted at him that he had really offended me and it backed off and sat in the flight seat.

Now I'm thinking about it I don't know AIBU?

There is such a thing as fit-and-fly seat covers, apparently.

OPs theme tune?

SDTGisAnEvilWolefGenius · 13/05/2017 12:53

You can get pigs-in-blankets flavour Pringles? Why didn't I know this?

@HelenaWay - you were extremely rude and overreacted massively. But then you started this gem of a thread, which goes some way towards mitigating your offence.

Maybe next time don't shriek at people on the bus - makes you look like a nutter.

BuggerOffAndGoodDayToYou · 13/05/2017 13:08

Had to text my bus driver mate..... he has never heard of a fly space!

He now thinks I'm as much of a nutter as the OP 🤓

OboePlayingImmortalRabbit · 13/05/2017 13:26

SDT I think the Pigs in Blankets Pringles are only available at Christmas Sad They are bloomin' lovely, though.

Natsku · 13/05/2017 13:52

Just read the whole thread, now my face is hurting from laughing!

chastenedButStillSmiling · 13/05/2017 14:13

I really don't get why the OP hasn't been back to update Confused

DailyMailReadersAreThick · 13/05/2017 14:22

I need to know the flavour of the Pringles. Sad

I really don't get why the OP hasn't been back to update

I suspect she's sleeping off her, erm, liquid intake.

Tamatoa · 13/05/2017 14:30

I have found actual footage of the op's 'fly seat'.

memyselfandaye · 13/05/2017 14:40

@HelenaWay please come back!

We need to know what flavour the Pringles are tequila by the sounds of it and if you need any advice on hangover cures.

Louiselouie0890 · 13/05/2017 15:11

Maybe they mean the gangway and the foldable seats

pennypickle · 13/05/2017 15:21

Tamatoa 😂😂😂

Yep that certainly looks like World OP lives in.... Love it!! 🤣🤣

MarklahMarklah · 13/05/2017 15:35

I think OP was on the bus to go and visit Sharon (who was probably listening to Erasure). The fly was masquerading as a wasp. I bet there was wine in that bag too.

PhyllisNights · 13/05/2017 15:38

Is the OP from the future or another planet?

toffee1000 · 13/05/2017 15:42

C0untDucku1a · 13/05/2017 16:10

An advanced search really paints an interesting picture of the op. My favourite was the op requesting a poster return to her thread and explain what she means Grin

Vinorosso74 · 13/05/2017 16:27

You've just made me search now too C0unt and my fave is, "Do people not proof read anymore?". Wonder if she proof read this one?
In the cold and sober light of day this still makes no sense but has been an amusing read!

hollyisalovelyname · 13/05/2017 17:38

I'll try the Prawn Pringles.

punkpuffin · 13/05/2017 18:33

Annette they are the best Pringles ever!

SherlockPotter · 13/05/2017 19:08

@HelenaWay please will you return and put us out of our misery: WHAT FLAVOUR PRINGLES DID YOU GET!?

NotACleverName · 13/05/2017 19:09

I shouted at him that he had really offended me

Do consider getting a grip, dear.

NoMoreBones · 13/05/2017 19:42

I think the flight seat is the one immediately behind the driver that faces the aisle.

Shootfirstaskquestionslater · 13/05/2017 19:44

Maybe in the cold light of day the OP has had a little reread and realised how much of a fucking fruit cake she has made herself sound. Am still none the wiser what a fly seat and flight space are OP have you got yourself confused between a bus and a plane. Was this magical bus up in the air when you started screaming like a banshee just out of interest. Word of advice for you OP lay off whatever drugs your hiding in your Pringles and rice and stop screaming at random strangers on the bus (if it was a bus and not the spaceship to take you back home) it makes look just a tad unhinged.

NoMoreBones · 13/05/2017 19:49

This sideways one....
