Just Check your Fucking Luggage

Just got in from Denver, one day business trip.

What a colossal cluster fuck flying out this morning was.

Listening to the radio on the way in, they said No liquids of any kind would be allowed on the planes. This includes, but is not limited to: Bottled Water, Hair Gel ('Sup Raider James?), Lotions ('Sup half of T1B), contact lens solutions or any fucking thing else that is not a solid.

If they any of the aforementioned articles at Security checkpoint - they are going in the trash. No if, ands or buts.

I was on Frontier, and as I waited to check my carry on I heard the same arguement 15 times; "Why can't I bring my Salve, Juice box, lip gloss, etc" and the only thought running through my mind was "check your shit, shut the fuck up and go outside to stand in the 2 hour security line"

The best was watching this idiot who had gotten in from Mexico argue with the flight attendent about his 4 bottles of Tequillia as he was trying to board his connection. Him: "I'm not leaving my bottles here" Her: "Well then your not leaving here"

Classic.

I've never hated traveling more than I do now.

They said they were making allowances for Infant Formula, and aside from Pa liquid resecription can't think of anything else you really "have to have" with you when your airborne.

Watch the media turn this into a fucking "their trampeling our rights" circus.

I would rather stand in a long line, get searched and be told I am not allowed to carry certain items, than to be blown up on a plane. I don't understand why someone would think otherwise.

I get annoyed that people get annoyed! Just deal with it and follow instructions!

(It's just a ban on liquid items in carry-ons, correct? We can still put them in luggage that we check? Because if so, there's the solution. Not so hard, people!)

ANYWHERE? Hmm...so that means any time I travel I have to find a Walgreens for toiletries? Bummer.

About the only thing you can say to most of these spoiled lil Bitches is....

"Hey! Ever done a freefall from 37 thousand feet without a chute?"

"uuuuhhhh whaaaa? buuuuttt my Evian Water......my hand lotion

my uhhhhhhhh no I don't thinks so."



"Damn that's to bad. Sucks for us."

'Flammable Pepsi' banned at Hancock

Travelers at Syracuse Hancock International Airport today seemed confused by the new regulations that prevent them from carrying liquids or gels onto airplanes.

While most travelers seemed to be accommodating, many said they were surprised by what were suddenly banned materials. Deodorant, baby formula, ear drops and lipstick were all items travelers said they didn’t realize would be a problem.

“I bought a Pepsi. They said it was flammable,” said SU women’s basketball player Nicole Michaels, as she was about to board a plane to New York City. “I was just going to drink it.”

from syracuse.com web site:

we're living in a fucking MADHOUSE---
when are we going to actually look for

TERRORISTS !!!

and not searching Aunt Tillie's purse ??

IT's a lot safer to search Aunt Tillie's purse; she's not likely to put up much of a fight and even if she does, the cops can probably kick her ass

Fuck That
I would personally kick her ass for holding up the line and not checking the son of a bitch in the first place.

Seriously
Have you ever boarded early and seen all the carry-on items getting crammed into overheads? Busy flights are always a bitch cramming shit everywhere they can.

Jesus Christ, some crazy fuckers could probably blow up a large chuck of the terminal let alone an Airplane.......

Well.... its good to know that all the plastique and other liquid / gel explosives will be safely and securely stowed away in the baggage compartment where they will be able to blow away the fuselage and fuel tanks with a barometric detonator.

Nah, that shit would make too much fucking sense.

You need some shit straight out of MacGyver like a sports drink/liquid explosive cocktail to be detonated by a flashbulb. First you had planes turned into missles by box cutter wielding nutcases. Then some asshole tried to turn a Nike into a bomb. Now we've got Gatorade bombs.

What's next? Is Kit from Knight Rider going to be involved in the next terrorist plot?

Seriously, if you wrote this shit as a suspense thriller 10 years ago, it would have been rejected by any decent publishing house.

Pretty much all of the above came out of the Bojinka plot.
I still blame MacGyver for putting these foolish ideas in their heads.

I fly every other week and I'm on the fence on this one. Well, I at least know they've gone waaaaay overboard with some things. As far as I know, right now, you aren't even allowed to bring a book or newspaper onto the plane. WTF? Not so bad to Michigan next week, but for my flight to Portland the following week? Yeah, that'll be nice.

Putty: ~on a plane staring straight ahead~

Elaine: Aren't you going to read anything?

Putty: Nah.

Elaine: You're just going to stare stragiht ahead the entire flight?

Putty: Yeah, that's right.


On the other hand, how nice it will be for the plane to board so much more easily. No more shitheads trying to fit their oversized roll-a-boards in the undersized overheads. Asswipes. On the other hand, how boring it will be not having the dumbfucks to watch.

I was never one to bring beverages on board, so no big deal for me there. What will be a pain the ass is my lap top. I've gotta check that thing? Motherfucker.

I'm quite certain that you are allowed to check lliquids in your luggage. You just aren't allowed to carry them on. Toothpaste, hand cream, liquor, etc. are allowed to be packed in your checked luggage.

if the cia and fbi knew all about this shit and got this guy to talk so much, then why were they caught off guard by the september 11th incident?

arrogance? ignorance?

when are we gonna finally come to the realization that we need to start profiling. If you are an arab or even look like a fukking arab, the airport cops are gonna crawl inside your ass and have a look around.

Is this fair? No. So fukking what.

Okay. So they "tip off" the authorities about the nitroglycerin stuff, causing a diversion to do what ?

I'm intrigued and am anxious to read your thoughts.

Probably when they attempt an attack on the World Bank, I got a hunch it's inevitable.

My guess

Much like the rest of this country they needed a swift kick in the ass. Obviously you can't kick the BSmack's of this world hard enough. As I stand in line in the near future with my girls and the rest of my family I swear I going to kick some whining bitch's ass.

This is to much...McGyver, it's made up, conspiracy,... yadda yadda ....

Thud!

Go fuck yourself......

Probably the best perk of my job is not having to stand in those godawful security lines. I'll miss that at retirement. Unfortunately, half my travel is with my wife and kid so I just have to stand around and wait anyway.

Eventually, they're probably going to ban some electronic devices that can be used to trigger explosions. No laptop on the plane to watch some DVDs will certainly suck.

Oh well... whatever makes things safer is fine by me. Minor inconveniences are better than being dead. Hell, I'm all for how the Israelis handle security on El-Al flights. Seeing a soldier standing in the aisle with an assault rifle is probably a great deterrent.

Thank God I don't have to fly anywhere anytime soon.

The only thing more annoying than having to deal with airport hassles are all of the morons who have no clue as to what the fuck is going on around them ... or in the world, for that matter.

Yeah, I've found it's fairly annoying when fork-lift driving gimps with broken-down air-conditioners offer "humor" while traveling along ankles. Or a ton of War Wagons in airports.

You must've seen the wire pics of the Brits downing bottles in midday and become jealous, Wags.

Do try to keep up Wags. I was trying to save this thread from degenerating into yet another Clinton bashing/defending thread. ~ yawn ~
