How to handle irritating seat mates on your flight

If you find yourself sitting next to someone who annoys the crap out of you, follow these simple instructions:

1.  Quietly and calmly open up your laptop case.
2.  Remove your laptop.
3.  Start it up.
4.  Make sure the guy who is annoying you can see the screen.
5.  Close your eyes, tilt your head up to the sky; spread your hands, palms facing up; and move your lips as if you are praying.
6.  Then hit the button.





Note:  do not attempt this if you suspect your seat mate to be a US Air Marshal.
