I flew to Denver this weekend for a company event.
I don’t mind doing these things. They usually are fun and you get to see people that you have worked with before and tell tales about this former co-worker or that former co-worker. You get to watch others schmooze the bosses and get brown stinky stuff all over their faces. You usually get to eat for free.
I have one problem with these trips that comes up each time.
I do not like the TSA.
I appreciate their function and intent, but I hate the fact that every power hungry ineffectual asshole in the world works there. It is a veritable magnet for spineless twits that have a need to push other people around.
One of their overzealous people pushers pointed out to me that my deodorant would ‘cause problems’. I had a choice at this point; to say what I was thinking, or say something that would not result in a strip search and anal cavity probe. I chose the latter. I told the twit that he could throw it away.
I was pissed at him because the man next to me had the same container with even more product in it, but the TSA monkey said nothing to him. It also did not help that the container when full was less than 3 ounces, but he clearly did not know or care about his own rules and chose to pick on me.
I think it is clearly Troll Discrimination.
We Trolls need our deodorant to pass in polite society, and I feel that this asshole sensed that I am a Troll and deprived me of my personal deodorant in order to make life hard for me. I feel that he is a racist and that he took it upon himself to cause me emotional harm in order for him to feel superior.
If there were justice in this society I would sue the TSA.
I will not do that because I would end up on some list somewhere that makes it impossible for me to board a plane without a strip search and an enema, or find out that my driver’s license is suspended because it was also issued to a retarded pedophile in West Virginia.
They have the power.
Someday I hope that they learn the difference between power and responsibility.
