@blyan-reloaded: And it's terrifying that while I'm the one that needs protection, I'm a suspected terrorist in the eyes of TSA every time I get on an unwelcome 6.5 hour cross-country flight...

@Col1: Actually the "voice" is what passed the bill. The voice of reasonable people (in my opinion) that understand the consequences of the bill voted differently. We were apparently overwhelmed. That's when my healthcare insurance went up to 300% of what it cost me the year before and my deductables doubled.

@blyan-reloaded: Ha ha, and think about the common business man. He takes 2-3 flights a week. His rectum will never be the same.

@Moonlighter: It will get even better. In order to take your flight back to New Hampshire for Christmas, you'll need to live in solitude in a TSA holding cell for one full year in order to monitor your behaviors. Then, once you've cleared, you may board your flight. It's so simple...

@Arken: I <3 this comment.

@Stevox: @Col1: Except that a democracy is fundamentally intended to serve the people, not simply offer policies that will benefit the leaderships intentions, regardless of choice.

@OTCIXS: It's a great plan until a man with hands as wide as your back pulls you aside for the pat-down. Oops.

Jeez... Whenever I have to write a check to a friend, I usually write something like "whoever cashes this definitely loves men" on the "For:" line. Gunna sue me for it? I dunno. I just don't understand jokes...

@Kaiser-Machead v.2.4: With a new caption this can do double duty for the next TSA pat-down article.

@macpatrik: Ha, that's awesome. Some burger places in MA near where I grew up still cut burgers in half for the ladies. I thought that was nice...

@KamWrex: Agreed, it's less likely to be taken seriously with the propaganda screened all over it.

@KamWrex:

Honestly, I wouldn't mind hanging a naked X-ray pic of myself in my bedroom, to remind me how really, really, ridiculously good-looking I am.

I'm not sure that the string cheese I'm about to enjoy qualifies. But that's interesting, since my weekend "ritual" was to go to Whole Foods, buy a small block of unpasteurized cheese and eat it before I made it home. Looking back now, that does seem a bit unusual...

@Scott: Yeh, but looks, now we have a combined 42 seconds of arguably disturbing milk-lapping perspective video.

@jmd1513: Maybe you can squeeze the handles instead, like a pinky-ring finger grasp that links the trigger buttons. That would actually be pretty sweet.

@blyan-reloaded: And when karma steps in to equalize those fools, they usually still think that they are the victim. May they all burn in a fire. Thank you.

@blyan-reloaded:

@CaptainJack: And do they "win" when the first question they ask is "What's the limit?"

@Kaiser-Machead v.2.3: He is an outstanding role model for practical spending and wealth preservation.
