There is no need for legs to be pressed up against on a plane.
Oh wait, do you mean in the ass/thigh area? Then it can be unavoidable. So then let's focus on the no jiggling. COME ON PEOPLE.
Now, I can hold a note for a long time...actually I can hold a note forever. But eventually that's just noise. It's the change we're listening for. The note coming after, and the one after that. That's what makes it music.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
After every event involving food, my firm sends out an office wide email saying telling people to come help themselves. Sometimes they even supply take home containers

Speaking for those with bad hips/backs, holding your legs away from someone else in close quarters can result in significant pain. Sometimes it seems a good idea to apologize, sometimes it seems a good idea to ignore the entire situation, depending on how it seems your neighbor will react.

One of my first jobs out of college, I had to arrange for lunches for a lot of meetings. It was a software firm, and I usually had to station myself at the table outside the conference room to protect the lunches from the vultures.
On the other hand, I always made sure to order an extra lunch or two, just to make sure there was enough food to go around. Ahem.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame
My desk at my old office was next to two conference rooms. People would start hovering around 1pm looking for leftovers even though everyone knows that leftovers go to the kitchen before they are available.
Connie has it right - vultures. I just made friends with the Admins who handled the lunches and they would let me know if/when there were leftovers.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
At my old office, we were split between floors - 5,6 and 29. Those of us on 29 never got any conference room leftovers!

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Dang, my lunch was good.
Sauteed TJ's frozen green beans (haricot vertes style) in olive oil and butter and minced garlic, adding some red bell pepper for contrasting color and texture, slivered almonds, diced ham, a little soy sauce for salty and a little balsamic vinegar for tang.
Mostly green stuff, salty tangy crunchy with protein! So good. I ate a whole panful. I make this pretty often without the ham, but sometimes the ham and the green beans want to be together.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
That sounds dee-lish, Hec! I am on week two of fruits during the day and a small meal with veggies and protein at night. I have lost 7 lbs and I know most of that is water weight, but one or two are legitimate. I also just plain feel better, I have to say. Why can't I ever REMEMBER that when I start craving chocolate, durn it?
