I attempted a minimal-clothing adventure. I knew I had been SSSS'ed because my boarding card wouldn't print at home. So I deliberately wore soccer shorts and a t-shirt. No socks, no shoes, nothing else (yes, it was winter.) This stopped nothing. I got my bare skin wanded and patted down. Who knows? Maybe I had put on FAKE SKIN! Better safe than sorry!
It's sad but I decided to forego a trip this weekend in part due to SSSS. I was asked to fly to Washington. I knew that if I bought a ticket to DC with less than a week's notice that I'd be a guaranteed SSSS. I really just don't want to deal with it, so I'll stay home. It's pathetic, but I really don't need a pat-down and a wanding right now. I'm all stocked-up for this year.
