Fly Off, Killjoys! Carbon Cranks Grizzle And Whine!

I was looking at the Australian channel yesterday, not always a fun experience…

…

W.

.

…but was amused at a report of a new craze, flying to nowhere!

.

I don’t like flying but many do.

.

As far as I can make out, some airlines, desperate to earn a few bob/bucks, are offering to load up aircraft with people who love air travel, then zoom into the sky, swan about up there for a while, then bring them back!

I do not enjoy flying.

I do it, but only because there’s no alternative to reach Australia, or anywhere these days.

But if some folks have the money and the time, who am I to criticise them –

.

.

 – to each his own!

Just as I like meals similar to those in the above photo, whereas muesli-munching stuck-ups don’t.

Muesli-munching stuck-up

….

My characteristic tolerance is not everywhere replicated.

Almost inevitably, killjoys have reared their ugly heads.

…

..

And equally inevitably, the grouchy pinko Guardian has given them a platform…

’Climate Campaigners Condemn Joy Flights For Travellers Who Miss Flying!’

…to whine and grizzle about ‘carbon emissions,’ of which the fun-fliers are naturally guilty.

I dislike killjoys…

Pinko Killjoys Target Hallowe’en

All Set For Unlawful Sexual Intercourse On Thursday?

C’mon, Brits, Vote – Thumbs Down To Pinko Kill-Joys! 

Jennie BlackPink – Just Another Outbreak Of Aurat Outrage! 

.Stuff Uptight Killjoys! Vote For ‘Baby It’s Cold Outside!’ 

Alas For Australia, Lucky Country No More! 

Asian Uptights Bleat Against Beauty! 

….and have often railed at them.

Now here’s another one, 

Anna Hughes, director of sister campaign Flight Free UK, said “I understand why they are doing it – but it really is insanity – a flight to nowhere is simply emissions for the sake of it. If that’s the society we’ve built, where we’re that addicted to flying, then we have a serious problem.” https://www.theguardian.com/travel/2020/sep/18/climate-campaigners-condemn-joy-flights-for-travellers-who-miss-flying

No, honey-chile, it’s you that has a serious problem, just as those examples above in various countries around the world have a serious problem with golliwogs, songs, Hallowe’en, Valentines, bikinis, alcohol…

One Daily Bacon Rasher = Cancer Risk? 

…oh, and bacon!

…which, like flying to aerophiles, are a source of pleasure to many.

Nobody’s going to force Agitated Anna to board a plane.

 In the year prior to the Chinese Virus, despite my aerophobia, I flew to Bali, Labuan Bajo, Banyuwangi, Sydney and Indochina.

No Regrets!

For fun!

What does Agitated Anna do for fun?

Count carbon emissions?
