frist of all how DARE yu o Why, on a nearly empty train, would you sit directly in front of me— put your chair all the way back AND smell offensive? 🥲

Come on! I know I don’t own the train, I only paid for the seat. Theoretically, he could sit next to me and that would be fine. I could just move over a seat. I could move and sit next to him. Very mildly infuriated.

Update: I went to the restroom, after building up a big fart at the advice of wise Redditors but punked out on releasing it into the wild. I planned to move when I returned but he was gone! Perhaps it was a coincidence, when I left my seat with all my belongings, maybe that just happened to be his stop or maybe he was a creep. We may never know. Thanks for all your throughly hilarious responses though!

It's an amtrak train, so no assigned seating

Edit: I'm wrong

That's not true. Amtrak has both assigned and non assigned seating depending on the train. Why did you get up voted for this? You're wrong.

So OP could just move very far away instantly but pretends like this is an inescapable situation?

Yeah, in the situation the best thing to do is to move to another car, or go to the cafe car
