    I have yet to have a TSA person be an asshole to me. Curt, maybe. An asshole, no.

      The latest I’ve personally witnessed was one sadistically mishandling an obviously expensive violin to torture the poor girl that was trying to get through X-ray to embark.

      That was in Houston, and other people I know that live the say that going through TSA there is always between bad and terrible. I’ve been to Memphis and they were fine.

      I asked whether the cancer box was compulsory or whether I could get a pat-down instead. What followed was a difference of labeling opinion where one debater had ultimate power over the other. I had to get reeeeally Canadian to still make my flight.

      Got my pat-down.

        If you’re worried about radiation, don’t get on an airplane at all. You’ll get a lot more being that high in the atmosphere than you will walking through a security scanner.
