Quote from Frank Costanza in The Serenity Now
Frank Costanza: I got no leg room back here. Move your seat forward. Estelle Costanza: That's as far as it goes. Frank Costanza: There's a mechanism. You just pull it, and throw your body weight. Estelle Costanza: I pulled it. It doesn't go. Frank Costanza: If you want the leg room, say you want the leg room! Don't blame the mechanism!
