Agreed, thanks for the insight.

“Some species of snakes eat rats. Let one or two of those loose on the plane.”

Saw a Warner Brothers cartoon made back in the 80’s on that. Release snakes, then mongoose to eat the snakes, then lion to scare off the mongoose, then elephant to scare off the lion, then rat to scare off the elephant. Circle of life.

Ha.

Insatiable appetite.
Movie producer on the plane phoned his aide: “Got a great idea. We combine the old Willard plot with a cannibal angle and make a thinly disguised life of JB Pritzker movie. Actor’s face dissolves into the rat one like Lon Chaney in The Wolf Man. Can’t fail.”

“Hey, if you’re gonna get stranded Aruba is the place.”

They weren’t stranded. They got an extra night on Aruba on KLM.

Rats On A Plane

[Mr. K]

I cant believe any one goes to Aruba after they allowed vanderslut to get away with murder

[Hyman Roth]

Unless you’re Natalie Holloway.

I’d go see it. It would be the first movie I’ve gone to a theater to see since Titanic.

The new Bubonic Plague. Lock it down. Phase 2.

No prob 👍

Airplane full of girly men.

Something similar happened to me. A rat jumped into my first class seat, then drank my complimentary glass of wine.

Was I upset? You bet I was.

[Organic Panic]

And there was not a single person on the plane with the hue so to kill the stupid thing?

[Rocco DiPippo]

Adam Schiff’s so damn cheap that he snuck onto the plane rather than pay for a seat. Typical scumbag Democrat. . .

You can’t just stomp out a rat on an airplane.
Can you imagine the reaction?

[antidemoncrat]

The only good rat is a dead rat.

[Organic Panic]

I would be happy to stomp a rat to death... although. Now days, it would probably be a hate crime.

I HATE rats

"Mom! CAN WE KEEP HIM!?!"

I started volunteering at the food pantry, sometimes
we find that some varmint, likely a rat, has chewed
thru the cardboard for a ‘lucky charms’ find. Rest
assured whatever is leftover usually goes to the local
hog farmer.

Of one thing I’m certain, most of them get away or
stow away with no one normally the wiser. Sure it
could be catastrophic if chewed thru vital plane wiring,
but most of that vital stuff usually gets backup
redundancies and/or is detected before the worst outcome.

Last what would Michael Jackson say, it could be one
of Ben’s descendants!?
