I got caught with 15 bongs at the Vancouver Int'l Airport Shocked

Only took about 3 hours to clear customs. Was all good.

Also, many Koreans are good people, but many of them are not. Don't ever expect a Korean airport worker to have sympathy for you/your situation. Remember, if yoou are not part of their inner circle, friend/family/coworker, you are nothing, just like a rock on the side of the road.


Hey! Well it could be worse. At least you are not considered as meat to be eaten. I guess in parts of Papua New Guinea that's what you are if you're not part of your own tribe. Wink

This is not just annoying, but pretty largely grandstanding. I don't feel safer from this. Maybe someone really does. I seriously hope not. They keep decreasing the volume of liquid steadily with no real justification, and generally give vague responses regarding heightened risks.

If you want to get something through security, you will. I just think most of us are not quite as dedicated to our, uh, cherry butter as your typical revolutionary to whatever cause they support.

Yeah dude, I thought about putting the cherry butter in a baggie and stuffing the baggie inside a jar of peanut butter.

Good point, but I did get through with my finger-mount vibrator so it's all goot.

Thanks for the reminder and heads-up.

I've got to fly back home soon; I don't want to lose any of my precious toothpaste or other personal hygiene items in the security check.

All-in-all, nowadays, I'd rather have more security of this nature than less. It's a pain, and I need to plan to arrive even earlier and to allow for more time before boarding the plane, but it's all a result of a few assholes who decided they have a right to kill anyone the want who ruined it for the rest of us.
