A viral Reddit drama has received some 1,200 reactions as people chime in on a train travel controversy and something that's a pet peeve for many.
Posting on social media on Saturday, a Reddit writer asked others if she was right or wrong for "moving someone’s bag when there were no seats left on the train [and] he wouldn’t wake up despite me making several attempts to get his attention."
The person wrote, "I’ve been mulling this over for the last few weeks."

She said she was on the train "going to work in the morning. It was packed, and some guy was sleeping with his bag occupying the seat next to him."
Added the poster, going by the user name "SnuffleWumpkins," "I didn’t feel like standing, so I repeatedly tried getting his attention by saying, ‘Excuse me.’"
However, after "four to five times," she said, "I gave up and just put his bag on the floor so I could sit down."
That did not go over well, the poster indicated.
"The literal second I put the bag on the floor he wakes up, glares at me and asks what the f--- I’m doing before angrily grabbing the bag and making a big show of looking through it before putting it on his lap."

The Reddit poster added, "I responded that seats aren’t for bags, sat beside him and that was the end of it except for the occasional angry glare."
She added, "I don’t feel guilty or anything."
She also noted, "I’m reasonably sure he was faking being asleep, but would like some vindication that I am not [wrong] in this situation."

The top responder to her dilemma, grabbing some 1,700 "upvotes," got right to the point.
"Bags do not get seats of their own," the person wrote. "Period. You tried, he wouldn't wake up, so he gets his stuff touched."
Another person wrote, "He should be thankful he still has a bag."
Said another person, "If he woke up that quickly to the bag being moved, he was ignoring you and pretending to sleep."
And yet another said, "Any time I’m in a public place, my bag is all wrapped up around me. I’m not just leaving it on a chair for someone to walk away with."
In a similar post a bit earlier, a commenter shared with others, "If there are people standing, you should move your bag and make space. Seats are for people, not bags."
