I'm don't like TSA just as much as the next person but they are just trying to do their job and people like you make it increasingly difficult. What's wrong with making $10/hour? I make way more than that but I'd never stoop to that level of being derogatory. You may feel like you stuck it to TSA but you come off as pretentious.
While I understand the criticism of the OP, I have to say, I fully empathize with the OP. As frequent flyers, we are constantly pushed to the limits. Being nice and friendly to the TSO's is acquiescence plain and simple.
Why make it easy on the gropers??? If you believe they are "just doing their jobs" then we have already lost the war for the hearts and minds of the people. There is no such thing as a good grope. Yes, it's much better when they don't touch my testicles, etc., but it doesn't make it a necessary or pleasant.
I don't often go throuh A at IAH, but I have had an unpleasant experience with the barking, threatening, testicle-groping, etc. I would give any of the blue monkeys any benefit of the doubt, especially the angry toothless guy at the A CP.
