Running Airport Stories Thread

[Songbird]

So I just went thru the airport scanner without my belt. I've lost 10 pounds since the diabetes diagnosis. My shorts are way loose now. I raise my arms so they can pat me down. My shorts fall to my ankles. Hilarity ensues. I'm sure I'll be on America's Funniest Airport Videos soon. Good thing my drawers are clean.

Sounds like a fluid situation.

I always wear an Arcade belt like this one -- Foundation (Heather Grey) | Arcade Belts -- when I travel (and much of the rest of the time because they're very comfy) because there's no metal and I don't need to take it off. Well, typically I don't. Some TSA folks can't seem to process that not all belts include metal.

Delayed in Detroit.

Better than them finding a giant double ***** in your carry-on, I suppose.

I've lost 20+ pounds since mid-July, and that, combined with my longtime battle with noacetol*, would make me awfully leery of going beltless in any public setting.

Airports Don’t Have to Be Miserable. Marvel at Them Like a Pilot Does.

At least you weren't commando.

Sorry to hear you aren't getting any. I figured you were married.

So you are a longback.

Or a cucumber.

I was on a layover in Hartford and went to take a leak. I didn't see anyone else and let out a long series of farts when a voice from a stall yells out "why don't you sing a song, too?"

Oddly enough, with MTM's avatar, this is the post above mine, since I once saw Ed Asner at O'Hare. Next time I'm flying I tweet the joke about not seeing him this time. He responds 'Sorry to disappoint' or something like that.

This story pops into my head from time to time when I'm in the men's room, especially when I need to let loose a massive fart or I hear someone let one go.
