Government bans "emotional support animals" from airlines

[RobDownSouth]

In the waning days of the former guy's administration, the FAA issued a final ruling regarding animals inside the passenger cabins of major airlines: "Service animals" (such as guide dogs for the blind) would be allowed onboard, so-called "emotional support animals" were banned.

This change was sought by the airline lobby, and as a frequent flier I have one word to say about this: good.

 

[SgtSpiderMan]

Yeah, this was coming.

 

[nowisthetime]

Yeah I always thought that whole "emotional support" animals on planes was bullshit.

Like shut up and pop a Xanax or something.

Does that mean ReichGuide can't take his pet CornDog with him?

I mean really most pets are emotional support animals. Why else would we have them these days? They don't work much anymore. Lazy bastards just sleep, eat and shit. Aint you got some sheep to herd or mice to catch? Fuck.
Anyway, yeah fuck animals on planes. Even the blind dogs. Where's the person gonna go in an airplane that he needs a dog to get there? Fido can sleep in the cargo hold.

Hey, I resemble that remark!!!

 

[Dribble]

Why? Are these animals annoying?

Yes. And their owners are even more annoying

Why? Are these animals annoying?

Yes. An emotional support peacock is just awkward on a coast to coast non-stop flight.

No, it means you'll have to ride your emotional support pony to your destination from now on, droopy drawers.

Dammit, I'm not giving up my emotional-support skunk!
