TSA stupid.
This guy, no way TSA had to search him, he wasn’t concealing anything.
ANYTHING!

me, I usually carry a Nitrolon Surefire everywhere I go, and the TSA guy was making noises like I couldn’t have it and he was going to have to confiscate it.
Now, I’ve flown with this thing for YEARS. it’s a bit rugged looking and will never really be clean again. But it works, and it’s very bright. Most guys just look at it and let me pass through. THis guy decided he needed another nice flashlight, so he stood there with it in his hands ready to quote some regulation he made up on the spot as to why he couldn’t let me take it on the plane.
So I said “Damn. I guess I’ll just have to go back to sticking it up my ass again”
he dropped it like a hand grenade and waved me on.

That’s awesome…
I’ll have to remember to use that one next time I’m probulated…
I’m surprised that didn’t get you a visit to the little room in back.
I’ve never quite understood why TSA agents don’t get a strip-search before they leave work.
Would probably minimize this sort of incident…
Oh, hell, been there. I have no sense of shame whatsoever, so being probulated by a tsa goon (or border patrol, which is usually where I have the most trouble) is more trouble to them than to me. The last guy who gave ME a body cavity check is still probably sitting in a dark room drinking hard.
Details, Og, we need details. I’m sometimes a bit short on imagination, but I do have a pretty good memory.

Man, did that bring up a picture. Now if it would have some brown goo on it as well.
Remember a story from back when the draft for sunny south viet nam was in full swing. Seems a guy took a chocolate bar in and when they stripped down for the turn and cough he kind of squatted down and dropped it. Before anyone got a good look he grabbed it up and snarfed it down.
Supposedly was escorted out of the building never to show again. Probably urban legend, but damn, what a trick.
You’re still flying, but there’s a second list, don’tcha know…the “Keisterer List”, or just K-List. I hope that Pen gun you just bought was a private sale, or they will REALLY probe for that one…you’ll be able to TASTE that probe next time you fly.
Bahaha! Whatever works eh Og?
Having a quite giggle here with that mind picture you painted.
