"The problem with all the security theater is the poor production values" --Tim


Today's news is about a woman who was allegedly forced to remove her nipple piercings to board a plane.

The TSA's statement about this shows a picture of a bra bomb that may be used in the future to train TSA officers.

Um, yeah, no. Scarecrow argument. Harassing people with body piercings is neither ok nor a significant contribution to actual security. Especially not with the sniggering.

Just think what might have happened if you'd gotten into the cockpit with that lip balm and moisturized everyone's lips ... I shudder at the terror.

Pilots with kissably smooth and sweetly flavored lips? My GOD, it's possibly as terrifying as someone using smuggled-on nail clippers to give the whole plane a manicure! ;)

The pilot and co-pilot could start macking and crash the plane.

And hey, do you know PAINFUL it is if a terrorist were to hold you hostage with a clipper and cut your nails too closely? Not to mention anyone's Lee Press-on Nails getting utterly ruined?

Ah! Not my nails! (I have beautiful nails naturally, and I hate when they're too short (or too long).)

And now I'm imagining cock-pit porn...shame on you! ;)
