Interesting spin on a travel pillow
That's brilliant!
Wow, you've really mastered the power of positive giving-up.

Interesting spin on a travel pillow.
Oh wow that looks comfy. But only if it auto-inflates.

I've been tempted to try one of those pillows, ita, but yeah, it would be irritating to inflate.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
The brilliance far outweighs the ugly in my mind. I wouldn't even be that bugged at inflating it. If my seatmate looked at me funny -- ehn, it's not like I'd be awake long enough to let it really get to me, so ha-ha, fishy-eyed seatmate! I would mock you, if I weren't happily fast asleep!

Thankfully I can fall asleep on airplanes without a pillow or even the need to recline my seat beforehand. One of the few useful skills I picked up spending my teen years in 3 hour weekend commutes to the hospital.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I imagine manual (or whatever) inflation on a plane cramped enough that you need the pillow would be really irritating to yourself and your neighbours.
I can't sleep upright. Even with the seats reclined, I need to lean against something on the side too. BA flights to Kenya rocked because their headrests curve around your head. Other than that, that's why I always get the window seat.
Sometimes I can sleep by flopping forward on the tray. But it's nowhere near guaranteed.

I totally need a window seat on a plane. Because even with a pillow I get a terrible crick in my neck if I'm sitting upright. I need to lean sideways, damnit.

Me too. I have a couple of neck-pillows, but they're not quite right. Too thick in back, not enough on the sides.

I can't sleep on planes, and I hate all of you who can.
So any credit I might have gotten for being industrious enough to take work home is completely negated by the fact that I forgot to copy the document back to my computer this morning. AUGH.

Drugs are your friend. When Dramamine came out with the non-drowsy version, you could hear me snarling across three counties "But it wasn't a bug, it was a FEATURE!"
