Fashion Board - Muse to the Fucktards

Airport security workers made out like bandits today. They all went home with good booze and expensive perfume.

And if passengers aren't allowed to bring liquids on board even if they bought them inside the security gate, the duty free shops are going to take a big hit.

On the radio, some interviewer guy was talking to some airport guy, and saying, well, how do you stop the TSA people from taking the stuff? And the airport guy was like, oh, no, we just dispose of it all. Can they not like send it to the lost luggage place at least and auction it off? Or auction it off for charity or something? I mean the unopened stuff, not someone's half-used lipgloss.

I don't begrudge the TSA people or anyone from taking half-used perfume and makeup and stuff. Better than it going to waste, for chrissakes.

Do people really think "I'd rather have my half-used bottle of perfume destroyed than the TSA person have it"? That's fucked up. Or, it's a completely understandable initial reaction, but it should be recognized for the bullshit it is after some reflection.

I find it amazing that even stuff sold at gift shops inside security could peddle stuff that could be combined into a bomb. Is MacGyver working for Al Qaeda?

Maybe they reverse-catheter-ed stuff into their bladders, and then dump out the water from the Aquafina bottles from the store and pee the chemicals into them, and then combine the various chemicals now in the Aquafina bottles into a bomb on the plane.

The person on the radio was also saying to leave the fob thingy that locks and unlocks the doors to the car and opens the trunk and stuff behind. Mine is part of my key -- wtf am I supposed to do?* I guess maybe put the regular key in the glove compartment or under the seat, and take the valet key with me.



*in theoretical world in which I have to fly, and in which I drive to the airport and park instead of taking a cab.

I just assumed the TSA people would get to take the confiscated stuff. They probably deserve it for dealing with passengers who are pissed about having to dump their stuff and take it out on the TSA workers.

Ditto. Hence surprise at radio thingy.

Yeah, that would look good. "I must confiscate these panties because they could be used as a bomb. And that gold ring, because you could use it as a bomb."

Sure it's wasteful, but it's better than the alternative.

Puh-leaze. We are talking about things legitimately confiscated. Like ncs's Kiehls moisturizer.

I can´t be bothered to read all the posts I missed over the last couple days, so I may miss some board inuendo about this but ...

why do different airports have different rules? Shoes on, shoes off. Laptop out of the bag, laptop in. Show your boarding pass to security, or not. If a brilliant mind at TSA has determined that taking my laptop out of the bag somehow enables them to better determine wheter it is really filled with Semtex, then shouldn´t they send out a missive that tells the high school drop-out with a magic wand who used to make fun of me for knowing four-syllable words to enforce a rule regarding laptops or not? And, if they haven´t determined that the machines are somehow confounded by a nylon shoulder bag, why do they allow these Cletuses to make up their own shit as they go along?

This is where it is important to be careful with your grammar. Because she said she wouldn't be caught fucking dead, and not that she wouldn't be caught fucking the dead, I assumed that she wouldn't be wearing Gap on any dates with a necrophiliac.

We'll have to leave it to the grammar Timmies to settle whether she is the necro or merely the future object of a necro's desire.

The answer is subject to change depending on whether you are talking above or below the neck.

Although it slays me that wonk thinks I'm fat [cause I know him*], how can anyone really care what some high school student from Kansas who posts on a message board says about him or her?
















*I'm "dating" his daughter when I have the money to do so.

I like to think of it as putting her through college. And she charges double because he's that fat.
