Hopefully the tongue-in-cheek part was clear.

But yeah, (1) I could not actually see who was in my seat when I said, "someone is in my seat," (2) the flight attendant was standing right there, as it was the first row in coach, and acted before I saw who was in the seat, (3) the credit card fraud protection call was coming in at the time, so I was distracted in that direction as well, and (4) they knew it wasn't his seat.

Still, had I been more on top of things, I would have liked to act as graciously as Burger suggested.

Sort of. I also wanted that seat.

Or check with the local ACS chapter to see if they have a generic winter gift-giving holiday party for kids with cancer and their families (the one in Podunkville does), and pony up some of your ducats to buy toys for Santa/Hanukkah Harry/Solstice Person to hand out at said party.
Instead, I shall break out my purple tote bag that says "team captain" on it or claim my Fundraising Club Certificate (?) or otherwise give myself too much credit for organizing the first ever Relay for Life of Downtown Minneapolis, which the organization saw as a big success but I personally thought it could have raised way more money.

(The wife works for Big Cancer, which means I spend a lot of time and some money (mostly buying drinks for staff that can't expense them) on cancer stuff).
