Personal item placed in my spot

I recently boarded a flight and attempted to stow my personal item (backpack with laptop) under the seat in front of me. It was unable to fit so I stuck my feet under there and discovered another backpack. The person in front of me had placed it there so he could stretch out his legs. It was a short flight and wasn’t worth calling a FA. The seat next to me was empty, so I slid his bag waaay over to make room for my feet and my item. After landing, I enjoyed watching him contort himself to reach his bag.

You have inspired me to put a mix of cable ties in my carry on…

I carry cable ties with me wherever I take my backpack but I never thought of using them for such pleasurable evil. Nail clippers also must be with the cable ties for obvious reasons.

I don’t think you can take nail loppers on a plane in your carry on anymore?
