Kojimamoto Toshibayamaha is like the Japanese equivalent of Fordchrysler Smithston

They take away my tiny little swiss army knife but the samurai gets to keep his katana? Unfair!
This is a train, though
I don’t see how that’s any better. Can you imagine if terrorists hijacked that train and crashed it into a building?
It’s quite hard to steer a train anywhere else than it’s tracks
I mean, if it wasn’t before it is now.
Katana? Nah, that’s just a handle.
Transit seats shouldn’t have a recline function.
Counter proposal: they recline by keeping the top in place and sliding forward to detract from your own leg room.
Sure that’s fine. I guess more broadly the rule should be that you can’t alter anyone else’s space
… I think I’d rather have someone’s headrest a little closer to me than feeling every movement of the person behind me as they shift in their seat with their knees wedged into mine
My knees are already about an inch from the seat in front of me in economy. How about airlines replace seats with ship style bunks so I can fly in relative comfort.
Looks like that will be a thing soon
I hadn’t thought of that, but ships bunks are almost certainly more space efficient. You could stack them three high pretty easily. Throw in a curtain and I’d take that over a seat I think. Even if you’re not planning on sleeping, it sounds more comfortable.
Airlines charge you for comfort. The transport is the same for everyone on board, but more comfortable accommodations cost more.
If they could get away with loading people in feet-first they would, and your legs would still be too long to be comfortable.
Counter proposal: having to sit 90 degrees bolt upright is agony on my scar tissue after about an hour. Give me five degrees dude. I really need thirty degrees but five (an inch) is barely noticeable for you.
Then they should be reclined by default already. Who wants to sit completely upright for several hours? One reason I have to drive to places is that even if I recline the seat on the bus, I have back pain after an hour.
Normal people probably don’t know what a Gaijin even is.
Unless they saw the third installment of the fairly popular movie franchise Fast and Furious.
Then they know Gaijin means “turn around, keep waking”.
Gaijin means family, family means everyone start your engines.
Family means everyone gets left behind, and forgotten. We have a san francisco to knock over.
Nah, the haiku is on point.
