This guy was playing Battleships on a plane when he spotted his opponent was sat in front of him

It’s been a while since we’ve been on a plane, so long in fact that we didn’t know you could now do things like play Battleships on them.

Anyway, this chap was doing exactly that when he spotted that his opponent was sat right in front of him. So he did two things. He whupped his ass, obviously. And he recorded it on his phone while he did it.

Only realised he was sat in front of me half way through the game from r/nevertellmetheodds

MacbookOnFire: ‘Imagine being that guy thinking like “holy shit this person is amazing at Battleship”

theRealDerekWalker: ‘More likely thinking, “wow I used to be better at this when I was a kid. Actually, I used to be better at a lot of things as a kid. Being an adult is depressing, I just get older, dumber, more out of shape, less enthusiastic about the world,… jeeze I’m not even middle aged.. is this what life will be for the remainder of life? No, now that I think about it, it must get even worse. I played battle ship when I was 10, now I’m 32. As soon as that same time passes, I’ll be 54, my bones will hurt, I’ll never get to be in the same shape as before, and there’s no going back. Time is passing so quickly now, those decades will probably pass by in an instant. And they will be fucking 30’s and 40’s, which suck, instead of teens and 20’s, which are better.. maybe I should just end this now.. what’s the goddamn point… fuck…” *turns off battleship’

And there was one thing everyone wanted to know.

greenrangerflute: ‘Did you tell him after winning?’

icanfly_impilot: ‘I want to know the answer to this question. I’m surprised it doesn’t tell you which seat you’re playing against lol’

Knightfalldc: ‘No! Was going to tell him after the flight but forgot when we landed.’
