airport security

its getting ridiculous. I was at the sanfrancisco airport today and theyre were signs everywhere saying that they can arrest you for making jokes about security. & some poor old lady got pulled out of line for having a little pair of sewing scissors in a sewing kit. it pissed me off the way they treated her...like a criminal. they put her in a little room and searched her. she almost missed her flight because she was detained. she was just a harmless old lady so that pissed me off.

 

I know, man. Life can be so unfair sometimes.

 

Lol...I was playing on a gameboy with my kid in an airport and told him to use the bombs to hit the lil dudes on the screen....you shoulda seen how many peoples heads turned when the word "bomb" came out in that sentence. I'm quite happy that I didn't get detained. Next time we go to the airport we're not bringing anything that might make us accidently say the word bomb...or boxcutter....or constitution......

 

LOL!!

 

I wouldn't know anything about it....I've never been on an airplane, nor do I ever plan to go on one in the future.

 

when i went to LA in 2000, i got the random bomb check about 4 times on the way there, and felt up by this really creepy old security guard woman because the underwire in my bra set the metal detector off. and i was like 14...i can't imagine what a song and dance i'd have to go through nowadays, especially if my nipple rings caused problems at the metal detector...

 

It's a little better then the past couple years I think. Still pretty bad though. I seem to get randomly checked every time. I think it's because I look really impatient when I stand in long lines.

 

i got called over for extended search last year
and, after he asked for my bags, my belt and shoes....he asked me if i liked al green

i started to feel uncomfortable and slightly violated.

 

I gor the "turn your head and cough" treatment by a creepy bald guy......


does the T.S.A. attract all the people wanting to live out their homosexual fantasies without actually having to come out of the closet?

 

He coulda at least offered you a ciggarette. I feel violated when anyone brings up soul music.

 

hah, suckers. I've never been checked at the airport aside from having my bags xrayed. Even in American airports, where I'm not a citizen but some creepy redhaired chick from Canada

they never suspect the short ones, Mwahahahahahah

 

so, do you like al green?

 

Beat me to it!
WELL?
Do you like him?

 

this is gonna kill me till she answers

 

They should issue box cutters. Hijacking an American airliner is never going to work again. It did not even work 100% on 9/11 when the folks on the Pennsylvania flight got the word that the hijackers were crashing the planes they tried to take back the aircraft. We are as usual preparing for the last event. Ever time since 9/11 that someone has acted up on a plane they have been overcome by the passengers. People will no longer sit in their seats and wait for the hostage negotiators to show up.

 

<worst case scenario devils advocate>
I'm just waiting for some actually organized terrorist group to go out, hijack 70 planes all at the same time, even it the "slam them into buildings" thing failed the crash casualties would be destroying to national morale.....

we only have x capacity to monitor rogue planes and only y capacity to actually hunt them down..... neither of those numbers is as high as would be impossible for a good sized well organized group to be able to overcome.....
</worst case scenario devils advocate>

 

under the circumstances, i told him no.

 

but otherwise, you do like al green?

 

Nipple rings don't set off metal detectors. I would rather drive someplace, unless I am going across seas. My car has a hole in the floor board, I'd hate to get my carpet wet.

 

you're unrelenting with this......



i guess, i'd have to say yes, yes i do like al green.
