In our highbrow post of the day, the NY Post (who else?) has this story of a stewardess who snapped the above picture of a rather — how should we say this? — un-buoyant passenger.

Per FlightGlobal.com, “The [flight attendant] took it to show her manager what was happening on the aircraft and why she was unhappy about it . . . Seems the guy paid for only one seat and the gate staff let him board.”

All I can say is, haven’t we all been that guy in the middle seat at some point in our life? You can almost just see him thinking, “Why does this always happen to me?”
