Look... We don't allow liquids cause they may be explosive, so put your possible explosive with all these other potential explosives in the busiest and most congested and concentrated area of this airport....i think I may of found a flaw in this plan

If there ever was proof the TSA is a clown show security theater it's in this bin. Too bad it's never going away because the average citizen simply doesn't care and no administration wants to be responsible for making a bunch of poorly educated government employees lose their jobs.

Well I wouldn’t say no administration is above the responsibility of making a bunch of government employees lose their jobs.

I feel like their job is to stop people from blowing up terminals and planes. They literally can’t stop terrorism on the public side of the gate. They have no means.

May of what? "May have" and not "may of".

I feel like putting a Mentos in there.

Drop a box of baking soda in there, you'll be through that TSA line in a jiffy.

I can only guess that this is a man, because only men have thoughts like this.

The panacea

My dad worked at Gatwick Airport as a cleaner in the 70s when he was a teenager. His first week there, a woman drops a duty free bag with a bottle of booze in it and he rushes over to clean it up. He's just about to put the bag, full of liquid booze and broken glass, in the bin when one of the senior porters stops him and tells him to bring it in the back. Turns out they had a filtration system in the break room for this exact scenario. They'd pour the booze out of the plastic bag and through a sieve that would collect all the broken glass, it would all go into a big container at the bottom and voila, free booze! They offered my dad some, but he declined. Anyway, I guess if you were working at Gatwick in the 70s you could have had a chance to drink some airport jungle juice, you'd just need to be brave enough.

Too dangerous to allow a liter of liquid on a plane.

Let’s mix them all together in an airport where nothing bad can happen.

what if terrorists brought actual bomb juice and poured in in there and then just flicked a match into there and the whole fuckin airport blew up? things to think about when youre on your way to the airport.

Every time I'm at an airport I'm just struck at how much it's changed since I was young.

In the olden days, it was like a big, clean bus station, people were free and happy and kids were running around, no barriers or guardrails anywhere. Now it feels like a funeral procession getting on a plane with the amount of searching and scanning and poking and prodding and massive walls of rules being posted about what you can't do or say and one-way labyrinths of security hell.

And you could even smoke on the plane

[-] ameancow@lemmy.world 0 points 4 months ago

Okay, some things have improved.

Or something which acts like a catalyst to make all kinds of soda explosives! (I'm not a chemist, so please don't judge me for this ridiculous statement)

[-] brendansimms@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago

[-] sirico@feddit.uk 1 points 4 months ago

Move beyond. Focus forward, your goals, your life, your family. Let it go.

Everything that matters to me is in that bin.
