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?

He asked you to move your bags and you thought he was calling you fat?

Either he isn't making sense, or you aren't. If its him, I expect there's a reason. If it's you, what's your reason? I can't tell you if YABU eithout that knowledge.

Did you have your shopping bags on the seat or in the way in an aisle so people couldn't get by?
If so you WBU.

If you will put your human scale bags in the seat intended for flies (and presumably other insects) then what on earth do you expect to happen?
OydNeverDeclinesGin · 13/05/2017 00:07
This is pure oddness 
are you drunk??
mustiwearabra · 13/05/2017 00:08
Wait, do you have a pet fly who you allowed to sit on the seat next to you much like a dog?

PMSL @ What flavour Pringles? This is important. 😂
Highalert · 13/05/2017 00:09
If you were taking up the fly space where was the man supposed to put his fly?

Either this is a joke or you need urgent mental help.

This whole thread hurts my head!

If the seat was made for a fly, no one's bags are going to fit on it are they? Apart from the fly's bag maybe.
If the fly had bought pringles and rice, it might be trickier.
Wait, do flies eat pringles? What flavour were they?
mumeeee · 13/05/2017 00:13
Sorry another one who doesn't know what you are talking about. What is the fly space and flight seat? If you bags were on the seat next to you you should have moved them.
Babyiwantabump · 13/05/2017 00:15
What now? 
PelvicFloorClenchReminder · 13/05/2017 00:15
I'll bet the fly was buying pringles as an apology present for its human landlord who actually isn't all that keen on early morning window buzzing.

are you sure he existed in this dimension?

Was the bus going to or from ASDA?
HelenaWay · 13/05/2017 00:17
Why is everyone talking about a fly. It isn't that hard to understand surely. He came on the bus and said I was taking up too much room in the FLY space. I only had a small amount of Pringles and rice so thought he was saying I was too fat. When I shouted he went to the flight seat and then I feel bad about it all night. I honestly only had Pringles, rice and a few other essentials not like a suitcase amount.

What is the fly space?
SparklyUnicornPoo · 13/05/2017 00:19
I think this is one thread where we actually need a diagram.
Is the flight seat the foldy down one in the disabled bit? and the fly space the gap that's meant for wheelchairs or prams? in which case YABU. If not I really need to know what the fuck you are talking about.
ohtheholidays · 13/05/2017 00:20
What do you mean OP by fly space on a bus?and a flight seat?
That's why everyone is confused!
TheRealPooTroll · 13/05/2017 00:20
How many tubes of Pringles and how many bags of rice?
Fruitcorner123 · 13/05/2017 00:20
What is the FLY space? And what is the FLY seat?
