I have a friend who traveled the entire world. He said flying in the US was worse than anywhere else. Anywhere else included over 70 different countries.

E it’s all just security theater

Right, that’s the worst part.

Frankly, I think the worst part is that TSA agents are far more likely to steal things out of your luggage than any random person on the street. It’s a real problem.

They used to freak out over face wash or a moisturizer that was over the size limit, and now they don’t even check. As far as I’m concerned that’s just them admitting it was stupid to begin with. They’re all stupid. The organization is stupid. Everything is stupid! Gaaaah! Okay, I’m done. Thanks for listening.

Check ebay for TSA items. You can get 100 nice Swiss Army Knives for a couple of bucks each. Or fuck it, buy by the pound.

Seriously, put TSA in the search and see what all you find.

To be stupidly fair, they are familiar with what a nail clipper looks like so it’s easy for them to find and screen them.
But if a legit bomb part went through security, they’d probably not recognize it due to its novelty.
The next bomb through TSA is going to be some popular toy like a Tickle Me Elmo or some other shit.
