Look: <\/p>\n
I miss the days when people got dressed to fly.
\nI liked when people thought of flying as something only the elite did, or businessmen.<\/p>\n
I’m extremely displeased that the hoipoloi feel inclined towards air travel. It would alleviate my displeasure greatly, however, if they would simply learn to travel properly.<\/p>\n
1: The TSA is an unfortunate fact of life. Until that happy day when all of Islam has ceased to exist, we are stuck with them. Deal with it.
\n2: “Dealing with it” means a couple simple things. <\/p>\n
a:Approach the security checkpoint with your FUCKING POCKETS EMPTIED OF EVERYTHING. TAKE IT ALL OUT, AND PUT IT IN YOUR LUGGAGE.
\nBy the time the prescreener asks you for your ID and boarding pass, those two items are all that should be on your person. <\/p>\n
b:Wear shoes you can get the fuck in and out of quickly.
\nc: Do not argue with the screeners.
\nd: Do not bring lighters, flamethrowers, crack pipes, sword canes, machetes, steak knives, meat cleavers. Do not bring pointed nail files, pointed scissors, hedge trimmers. Do not bring anything that might be construed as a weapon, used as a weapon, or modified to become a weapon.
\ne: CHECK YOUR GODDAMNED BAGGAGE. If you’re gonna travel with enough clothing to keep a city block of chinese sweatshops sewing for a year, put it in the belly of the goddamned plane; do not attempt to get it through TSA, do not make me sit and watch the TSA guys search through the pile of size 56 bananna hammocks to find the extra large toenail clippers you forgot you had in the pocket of your shorts.
\nf: Carryon baggage should be just that, bags you can carry. Do not have a cart full of bags. If you cannot get the bag in the overhead by yourself, leave it home. If you are a 92 lb woman dragging a 115 lb bag of clothes, and expect to be able to charm your way into getting some other guy to lift it for you, leave it home. If you’re 112 years old and expect the flight attendant to deal with the rock collection you got at the Grand Canyon, leave it home.
\ng: Be a human being. That’s right, queue jumping, elbowing people, being rude, making people’s lives miserable only for misery’s sake, is generating a special place in hell for you. Break from your norm, and be decent.<\/p>\n
Go forth and travel. And save me 18a.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
