Interesting

I dunno but I think I’d write dirty messages on these. Via Joe, who has other suggestions on how to fool with security theater.

True story: was leaving Hawaii, the TSA screener was doing a hand search of my backpack (lots of wires seen on the x-ray, from various electronic items). She reaches into the bag, and jumps about ten feet into the air.

“Something in there is rattling like a snake,” she says.

Knowing there are no snakes in Hawaii, I offer to dig into the bag and determine the cause. I come up with my trusty rechargable Norelco razor, which turned on as it was jostled.

I avoided laughing out loud at her.

I recommend this to all and sundry.

I’ll take the one on the right for 30, Alex.

I think x-ray pasties would be a good way to get pulled aside, strip searched and miss your flight, and have your carry on bag stolen.

That’s what I figure the most likely result would be, too.

I also expect there’s a line hidden in the statutes somewhere that makes it a crime to “attempt to defeat or interfere with” either these scanners specifically or any airport security device in general. It’s probably a felony, too.

Remember, I do this to entertain me, not you.
