If You Are Fat, Don’t Sit Next To A Lawyer On A Plane!

How dare you fat people want to travel! Can you sense my sarcasm? Good! Because, it's people like this lawyer that give the human race a bad name.

I hope this lawyer doesn't have any kids that become overweight. I'm scared how he will handle it.

Giorgio Destro, from Padua in Italy, is suing Emirates Airlines because he was seated next to an obese man in economy class. Destro, who's a lawyer, says his trip was "ruined" and that despite being a "gold member" of the airline, he was not allowed to change seats nor offered compensation or an apology by the airline.

So now he's seeking $6,000 in damages saying, "For nine hours, I had to stand in the aisle, sit on seats reserved for the cabin crew when they were free, and in the final phase of flight resign myself to suffer the "spillover" of the passenger at my side." Destrp even took a selfie as "evidence" of the conditions he was sitting in. A court hearing is expected to take place on October 20. (Metro)
