Haha. Michael Vick is such an idiot.
They made me chug and throw away my bottle at Busan and Tokyo (Narita) airport, even though I had bouht it after security.
In American airports, no problem at all (probably because i wasn't smuggling weed with it).
Why are the koreans more concerned about it than the Americans? |

Now I think it was North Koreans who used some kind of binary explosive to bring down an airliner. The whole "keep the world safe from water and hand lotion" thingy is based on the belief a person can smuggle in such a binary explosive. Although ostensibly, the only way to create a binary explosive that you could smuggle on board a plane that looks like water and hand lotion is also to smuggle in a small lab and dry ice.

i've flown about 10 times internationally since the water ban, and quite a few domestic in the us
havent had a single person tell me i had to throw away my empty water bottle
i did, however, have a giant unopened jar of peanut butter taken, but not the half dozen grapefruits |

i flew with an infant to the US late last year... i didn't have a problem with the security at incheon airport and the US airports... but at narita, coming from korea they confiscated my baby's bottled water... i tried to reason with them but they wouldn't listen... on the way back to korea, at narita airport again they were gonna confiscate a tube of gentle naturals baby cream i bought in the US but when i told them it passed security at LAX, they let me have it...
at the US airports, LAX and Port Columbus... never had a problem with baby's water |

apparently they dont since i see people hand over bottles with two sips worth of liquid while complaining the whole time
i didnt say it was an ingenious thought on my behalf, but there are some people who just didnt know
get over yourself |

blynch, lately you have very little productive material to add. Are you a troll, bored, taking your frustrations out on the Internet or all of the above? |
