Everyone's favorite pill-popper Steve-O did a video on how "service animals" is total bullshit. Cringe or based?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M3Yj2XmwEL0
>>
>>4798566
Steve O is whack, and I'm not watching the video, but most times "service animals" are totally bullshit. The "legit" ones are the ones that actually do something like help the blind or smell heartatacks or whatever, but anybody anywhere can get something like picrel and bring their dog all over while telling people that "it's okay because it's a service animal".

The worst part is people who really need a service animal for the previously mentioned legitimate reasons, but have to deal with the decreasing status of said service animal now that so many people are abusing the trust based system of it all.

Presumably they'd land on you while sleeping like a Tsetse Fly. You can't cover all the holes in your head and all times and even if you feel it when it lands you can't do much against a swarm of flies.

Sunken cost fallacies. They own one or know a relative/friend that does. For them to acknowledge that they are dangerous they would have to acknowledge that the one they know is and they are uncomfortable with the ramifications of that.

Clearly most JP commentators have not read the fucking book. Crichton is EXTREMELY explicit about why he wrote the book the way he did. It's not a book about dinosaurs. It's a book about man's hubris.
