this was a handwritten "SSSS" ? Didn't know they could do that?
Which is why you should carry two copies of your boarding pass. One from your on-line check-in and one re-printed from one of the kiosks at the airport (or two from the kiosk if you could not olci) so if the TSO scribbles SSSS, as you are placing your "stuff" in the little grey trays, simply swap out the SSSS bp with the one "strategically placed" in your bag or jacket pocket for just such an occasion and once thru security, simply tear up your SSSS bp into little pieces and drop into 2 or 3 different trash receptacles while on your way to the gate. Worked for me and no-one was the wiser nor was the terminal dumped
