I'm sure the people sitting next to me wouldn't mind if I shat my pants.

TheOmni: I too have the same feeling.

I'm not afraid of flying nowadays....it's just become too big of a pain in the ass.

Sounds like they're just trying to piss people off now. "Don't blame us... blame the terrorists"

TheOmni

Have fun on your next trip to Hawaii. Or Europe. Or... Or... Or...

In my line of work, I often have to fly. Get over it.

This news really has me down in the dumps...it's really crappy what they're doing to customers in the name of "security"...I'd be pissed off if I had to hold it in while some shiat-for-brains took his time in the can...

/I'll stop now

TheOmni

Cool, then there is one less dumb ass I will have to put up with when I fly.

Thanks!

I don't think Gigli was that bad. I saw it on a recent flight, and only two people walked out.

Someone should just invent a shiatter built right in to the passengers' chairs. Problem solved.

I wish they'd show Secretary on airline flights.

HYM Miss Jones:
Amen. That's a great movie to manipulate the stewardesses (if there are any hot ones left) into taking her home from the bar.

And TheOmni wins for helping popularize the term "redonkulous." It's one step above "santorum."

As soon as people just start peeing and pooping in the aisles, this restriction will go down the toilet. I shiat you not!

mizike I've seen some hotties lately, but then again if I probably gave them a good spank have an air warden taser me (rather than put on a saddle and keep a carrot in their mouthes... neeeeigh.)

They'd have an air warden.. taser... bzzzzzzzzzzt aaaaahhhh!

MasterFartKnocker That Gigli line made me spill my tea over my keyboard. And you are forgiven calling other farker a dumbass! :D

I'm just gonna save time by locking myself in the toilet for the duration of each flight...

Just waiting for them to start sedating people.

i saw a great sci-fi movie a couple of years ago, it took place in the year 2008, to ensure safety on flights every passenger was sedated during fligt..i think thats a great idea - it solves the toiletline thingee to.

ilovebeerme
damn, u beat me to it (=

Not that I've read the article or anything, but is this new? Domestic United/American flights have been bugging people about this for a while (don't know about other airlines...)

The obvious solution would be to change all airline seats into toilet seats...

The terrorists have won.

This has got to be the dumbest damn thing yet.

I can't wait until someone gets pissed off enough (no pun intended) to purposely wet themselves then raise a stink in the media about how they couldn't go to the toilet because of these rules.

I hate to say it, but you-know-who have already won. And they keep on winning. :(

This isn't really new. They've had the rule in effect since the beginning of last year, have they not? At least the beginning of June, when I made a flight to San Diego.

Your headline would've been better, as the article contains this sentence:

"a spokesman for the TSA...told BBC News Online that passengers could still queue for the toilet"

Homeland Security: Guilty until proven innocent.

Have You Met Miss Jones and mizike

You want hotness, fly Singapore Airlines.

Wow. Just wow.

I for one would like to protest this law, which will make it that much harder to join the mile high club in groups.

The rest of the world really needs to shout one collective 'Go fark yourself' to these utterly paranoid security demands emenating from the USA.

Its gone from being a pretty cool country to a completely paranoid, christian fundamentalist controlled, orwellian state in the last 3-4 years.

Paranoia will destroy ya... (Ray Davies)

Chalk up another for the terrorists, who must be peeing their pants with laughter over this one..

ahahaha cool filter

Does it count as being part of the Mile High Club if you just jack off on a plane?

The Omni

That's the stupidest farking thing I've ever heard. Get over it-christ get out more. "I'm not getting on a plane cos our government sucks"!! Sheesh Cleetus!!

I fly Quantas a few times a year to go from LA to New Zealand. What exactly is the TSA afraid is going to happen while we all wait to crap ourselves? The thing is Quantas has individual movie screens in the seats of their 747's, and most of the movies seem to end at the same time, so naturally there is a queue (line for us Americans) to take a dump. I'm personally not concerned that Muhammed is going to be up to no good while the pissing masses are waiting to go. If we're all cleared at the security checkpoints, what could go wrong?

I never flew until a few months after 9/11, and I've flown about 10 times since then. It has never taken more than 15 minutes to get through security, and the most scrutiny my luggage ever received is when the screener pulled an alarm clock out of my carryon and looked it over.

I really don't know why everyone biatches about security so much. What was it really much different pre-9/11? Are international flights more of a pain in the ass?

Seriously? Crap.

If people don't use the airplane toilets as often as they used to, how are the plane operators going to have enough "giant,blue, blocks of ice" to drop on houses?

Ewww! I should know better than to eat breakfast and read Fark at the same time. *icky!*

If you end up pissing your pants, will they arrest you for using a chemical weapon?

This policy has existed for a while...the last two flights I took with American and Southwest had this policy albeit only for the front bathroom since it's right by the cockpit door.

Damn, now how am I gonna pick up chicks?
