“I hope they do see the complaint, they’ll look into it and remind their staff that going through people’s personal belongings is a responsibility that should be treated with some modicum of professionalism,” Filipovic said.
– Which is the minimal professionalism one expects if you own the BimFord 2011 John Holmes autographed anniversary model.
Yeah, well, if there’s one thing I’ve learned in NYC, it’s that self-described feminists get just as upset if you bang them and don’t call the next day as other chicks do.

Not always. I find that if you steal something just below the calling-the-cops threshold from their apartment they don’t mind anymore when you don’t call.
Speaking of which, could anyone use a couple dozen copies of Jeanette Winterson’s Written on the Body?
I find it somewhat curious that when the TSA found Ace’s fleshlight the whole affair was not greeted with quite as much indignation by the blogosphere.
Attempting to discreetly explain the “personal item” to commenters on Feministe, Filipovic wrote it was “the most basic lady-thing you can imagine.”
I checked, and my wallet remains in my possession, so I can’t imagine what the item in question might have actually been.
I like Jill. I wrote her a note of sympathy, because it sucks having your privacy invaded. Especially when you’re digging shallow graves. But I digress.
She’s an earnest lib. But overall, she seems a really nice gal. Even though she didn’t write me back.
I commented on her looks because she is cute. Even though I normally don’t go for nose piercings. If she is nice too, all the better. But I am married and I also do not want the wrath of feminists against me. So I will keep my thoughts to myself.
I give her credit for taking the TSA on. Fuck them.
And I have personally been through Israeli customs and airline procedures. Unless you have experienced it, you have no idea how intrusive those are–but you know they are seriously trying to stop bombs not some $40K government employee on some power trip to fuck with you.
I had a friend of mine who imported a volvo into Israel. He was a Danish ex pat and the Danish government shipped the car new to Haifa (it was part of his contract). Israeli customs completely dismantled it and reassembled it in eight hours. He said they were higly professional. He said they did a fabulous job doing so. He said it was amazing to see happen. He got some Maccabees to drink and sat in the shade and watched.
I’m not getting why the Rangers decided to emulate the Brewer’s defense tonight? Should we expect a lightning quick barrage of runs in the bottom of the sixth too?
I think it had to do with the fact that 9/11 was only 5 or 6 weeks old. But the security guy did empty my duffle and flip through every last book. Ich bin Geschichter didn’t seem to mollify him.

Abe,
Next time I’m in town I say we take a poll at the lesbian and hipster bars. (Hopefully you’ve discovered the secret handshake to get in by now;)
I didn’t know she was so cute nobody tells me anything
What about a piece of luggage that vibrates all the way to Nassau? In the carry on bin.
Not that I have any acquaintance with that.
How did she fit an annoying, bitchy friend into her luggage?

Why would she need to be discrete about sex toys on a feminist blog? It’s almost cute.
I didn’t know a blogger for Feministe.us would be so square. Offended by that?
I just don’t get liberated women…
Abe, one step ahead of me again.
*sigh*
Off topic but fans of Breaking Bad will get a kick out of this.

Slightly OT, but is that a huge glowing zit on Jill’s schnozz, or a tiny piece of stud jewelry meant to resemble a huge glowing zit ?

Jill Filipovic is cute. You would think liberal chicks are good in bed but my experience is they are not.

The bitch.
The exception that proves the rule.

It was a basic lady-thing, not necessarily Jill’s basic lady-thing.
Uh oh. Fox had a different headline take: “Sex Toy in Luggage Elicited ‘Wildly Inappropriate’ Note From TSA Agent, Traveler Says”

Oh, that? Must be my alarm clock. Which just so happens to be shaped like a giant cock. Why do you ask?
Because of the painted on veins.
I came home from Germany in mid-October, 2001 with the most basic history über-geek things imaginable.
—75 lbs of german history books in one duffle bag.
Airport Security in Frankfurt was certain I must be trying to smuggle drugs. Or explosives.
You can thank your lucky starts that TSA hasn’t started issuing MP-5s. Yet.
done in velvet for the value

i shouldn’t have watched the 2nd hour of beck’s show today. debbie downer was an optimist.

Heh. That was a terrible tour. Next time, make sure I can find my ID before you meet up with me. ; )
I usually just ask to rummage through the lost and found at the hotel desk for one that got left behind… as it were.
Also #13…. maybe it was indisposed
I have to voice rare agreement with Jill’s sentiments, here. TSA has no business at all leaving notes in anyone’s luggage.
That aside: note or no note they’re showing it around and laughing about it. Count on that.
Note to self: leave the gay midget porn at home next time you do air travel.
Sure be embarrassing if it turned on and started buzzing away in the suitcase while you’re in line, huh?
