They make them for birds too -- no kidding. They also make little harness
leashes for birds. So let's say that my bird is a service bird, okay?
There's probably an argument for it in the therapy pet category. So I have
this bird with a diaper and a leash on my shoulder, while I'm tooling around
town in my wheelchair promoting disability rights. Since he's a service bird
he's got to have a little one of those things like the service dogs wear on
their backs. What should it say?
"I'm a service animal," or "I'm with stupid?"
