I am leaving on a jet blue plane.

I cannot bring a drink on the plane. I also cannot bring a lot of other things. I don't think I could make this list any funnier. Or maybe I am just too lazy right now. Do they really need to tell me that I cannot bring a hand grenade on the plane?

Yes, they do.

I am thankful for this. It cheers me up.
