If it makes you feel better, my face has grown a thick coat of white fur.

...costs money, which goes right into the TSA’s pocket. You’re literally not helping by getting PreCheck, you’re just encouraging the TSA’s bad behavior.
Couldn’t agree more. THe long lines are a pain in the ass, but if they were at least consistent I could deal with it. The fact that i wait 90 minutes one day, 5 the next? Makes planning a real bitch.
This has always been proof to me that the threat of terrorism is a complete sham. Every time I’m stuck in a huge line BEFORE security, I think, “they could take out hundreds of people - thousands, depending on the airport - before they even reached the point where someone would scrutinize their bags.
Frequent flyer here and my opinion of the big picture/problem.
Nobody flies out of Dulles. It's too far in the sticks. Everybody goes to Washington National instead.
It also links to Twitter so ladies can now send Twats......
As I understand it, the PreCheck fees aren’t funneled back into operations, they’re siphoned off into god knows what other uses. Plus most terminals have a (inadequate) fixed space for screening operations.
Which is exactly what happened in Brussels in March. They literally walked into the Check-in pre-security area with a luggage cart full of explosives.
Yeah, it is a lot more civilized to leave your shoes and jacket on, but I’ve seen the pre-check line take just long - and even had them close it with people waiting so they had to go to the back of the regular line.
Unfortunately not, it really depends on the airport. I flew out of JFK not long ago and breezed through security. Ditto New Orleans and Austin, TX. Newark Airport, on the other hand, had me in line for somewhere around 90 minutes.
Which is great when it means anything. I just flew out of Newark and precheck at terminal A literally meant I didn’t have to remove my jacket or shoes - I still had to wait on the long ass line (over 90 minutes at that point)
One of those tweets is the pre-check line, 350 people deep at 5:30 AM.
Oh, yeah? Tell that to my coy little ladyparts. You think you're cruising along, enjoying a flow-free life for two-three months, when all of a sudden you sneeze and BOOM - you've gotta make a quick run for the nearest bathroom and restock on the tampons and such you thought you'd never have to buy again.
is 350 people deep at 5:30AM at ORD.
If I was a terrorist these huge lines would be wonderful soft targets.
A worthy second step on the road to the interconnected vagina. But let imagination fly. Next on my list is a counter and quality monitor for Kegel exercises. Then on to greater apps, and the IoV!
Because they couldn’t think of the marketing potential of having the string connect to their specialty brand underwear?
The best part is, even when the battery fails, with an extra long string and a little capillary action, all you have to do is look down at the now-bloody string in your waistband to know the tampon’s saturated. Genius!
