What if FTers ran airport security?
What would happen if FlyerTalkers took over airport security? What would you expect some of these security screeners to say? At the very least, going through security would be a lot more interesting.

(Thanks to AlmostThere for the idea for this thread!)

"What do you mean you didn't sign up your cat for the frequent flyer program?"

"Nice rollaboard.... you know I'm gonna have to give you the secondary just so I get to check it out."

"Um, ma'am, friends do not let friends fly coach."

(glances briefly at the carry-on)

Okay, take this back to the check-in counter, because that thing ain't going to fit in the overhead.

Sir, I'm sorry but I'm not going to be able to let you past security until you take a shower and get a change of clothes. You're a health hazard.

Security: Sir, your cats will have to go through the x-ray machine.

Me-ow: Sir, My cats don't do x-rays. We will walk through that medaldetector thing. And they are United premiers so we'll take the dedicated line

Everyone would wear GAP leggings without the bells and whistles!!! (well at least all of the girls!)

I have gotten rid of all of my fancy cosmetic bags and use Ziploc!
