Reclining airline seats are the worst invention. Ever.

Yep. I’ve found that when I recline an airline seat it just makes me uncomfortable in a “different way”. :)

Student, 21, sues Spirit airline after she flushed her 'emotional support HAMSTER' down the toilet

Send her a bill for the standard Hamster funeral cost of $500

She wouldn’t want me on the jury

And Spirit Airlines doesn't want me on the jury.

"Therapy" rodents (hamsters, rats, etc.) have been used quite effectively in senior homes, due to their size and relative docility.

Spirit Airlines sues student for being too unstable to even be on their airline with all her potential issues and ‘baggage’. :-)

"Woman denied emotional support peacock on United flight"

These self-indulgent scheming jerks are good reason to bring back a very appropriate form of social correction. It should be administered at the very airports they afflict others with their sociopathic (or minimally sociopathetic) stunts - with their "emotional support" animal to be tied or caged along side them.

Seeing eye dogs or specially trained dogs to help paraplegics, fine, but if you can’t travel or go to a restaurant, store, etc., without your “emotional support” hamster, peacock, pony, snake or yappy Chihuahua, then perhaps you should just stay home.

HEY!!
Our Chihuahua isn't yappy, and he hates airline travel!

...jess sayin'...

[robroys woman]

But Spirit didn’t flush it down the toilet.

If someone tells me to shoot my dog, and I shoot my dog. It would be unreasonable for me to hold them accountable.

[hal ogen]

No, you shouldn’t stay home. You should check your self into a mental asylum for treatment.

I’m sorry for the poor girl’s medical trauma, hopefully someone that really IS loving reaches out to her.

Someone already suggested an emotional Support python...

[Haiku Guy]

The maximum possible award would be the value of her ticket, because she could have simply walked away. Nobody forced her to do anything to the hamster.

[9YearLurker]

And she’s 21, but the article headlines her as a ‘student’.

She’s an adult and whether or not she is a student is irrelevant—just used to make it sound like some child was needlessly traumatized.

[morphing libertarian]

If she is an american college student she has obviously been brain washed.

[publius911]

Oh, I bet that sucker made it down to the sewers alive. It will now marshal an army of rats and seek bloody vengeance on humankind...

Only if it survived the 30,000 foot drop after the sewage is dumped on some farmer's field...

[Yaelle]

So what a shame. All the years of training for the hamster literally down the drain.

[Axenolith]

Wasn’t she in the terminal, being refused boarding???

[GOYAKLA]

She’d be emotionally happier with a medium sized gerbil, maybe?

Ya know, a couple of months ago, "What's Up Doc?" ran on TCM. Barbra Streisand played a perpetual student that got kicked out of a number of schools.

Perhaps Miss Aldecoasea is auditioning for the remake via "living the part"?

[Haiku Guy]

I flew Spirit recently, and I thought they were great!

I liked the hard plastic non-reclining seats because they give me extra legroom and I never recline.

I liked the “they don’t pay us to be nice” attitude of the flight attendants, because it was honest. They were perfectly helpful and competent, but not particularly nice. Works for me!

And it was CHEAP!

Did JF’nK (John Kerry) rush in his second wife’s first husband’s trust fund funded private jet to give it mouth-to-mouth like he did his daughters’ hamster?
