Jimmy Kimmel had some choice words for United Airlines on Monday’s episode of “Jimmy Kimmel Live.”

After United had a man forcibly removed from an overbooked flight, the airline released a statement on Twitter apologizing “for having to re-accommodate” its customers.

“That is such sanitized, say-nothing, take-no responsibility, corporate BS speak,” Kimmel said on the ABC talk show.  “I don’t know how the guy who sent that tweet didn’t vomit when he typed it out.”

Kimmel then introduced a spoof commercial that included some of the cellphone footage of the passenger being pulled off the plane, as well as some potential new slogans for the airline.

“We’ll beat you so badly you’ll be using your own face as a flotation device,” a says the commercial’s flight attendant narrator, brandishing knuckle-dusters with a wry smile.
