Summary

A TikToker claims that the way people store their luggage on a plane is a litmus test for whether they are a good person. He argues that those who put their carry-on luggage in the overhead compartment and their personal items under their seat are considerate, while those who put their backpacks or purses in the overhead compartment are selfish. The video has sparked a debate, with many commenters disagreeing with the TikToker’s assessment. Some argue that everyone has the right to use the overhead bin, while others suggest that it’s not considerate to put small items in the bin when larger bags need to be stored.
