I know it's easy to laugh at these efforts, but seriously, many other countries have checks that are just as thorough as the TSA's without pissing everyone off. First, they greet and treat you as if you are a customer, not an annoyance. Second, they never, ever bark at you or paw through your stuff with you not there. And they certainly never give you that "do you want to fly today" nonsense. At least 50% of the problem with the TSA is in their attitude.
