X-Ray my arse! Skin-tight government issued uniforms instead
Well it looks like it is going to become a reality in the not too distant future. Walking through an X-Ray machine to catch a freaking plane. As if the whole ‘plane catching’ experience wasn’t a soul destroying enough they want to add another indignity to the game.
This just blows in so many areas I don’t know where to start. You have got the increased dangers of cancer and other ailments as a result of exposure to radiation and… well…. some random bloke will get a look at the size of my willy…..that’s about it I guess, but surely that is enough to get fired up about!! I think I would rather submit to a mandatory rubber glove cavity search than this X-Ray crap. At least this way both sides are having to ‘give’ a little.
I think we are starting to see society move from ‘free to choose your own’ clothes to a government issued skin tight uniform similar to that which is so prevalent in all those sci-fi movies and television shows. These uniforms won’t be a fashion attempt to make everyone look sexy, it will be more about making sure nobody is carrying guns and other concealed weapons. It’s just easier to make everyone wear the same skin-tight uniform than have X-Ray machines all over the shop, I mean there are only so many places to ‘carry’ a gun.
Good old science fiction, once again it leads us to the solution of a problem never worth investigating.
i can just imagine all the security guards now giggling at all the fat guys with tiny willys walking through the scanner
Hmm, I’m not sure it’s blokes’ willys they’ll be focussing on…..
Be very careful about singling out fat guys on this site Velcro……..very careful…….especially those with ‘tiny willys’ as you very childlessly put it…….next thing you will be slandering those with squidies……
Velcro you are an absolute Moron.
However I believe these X-Rays will provide an important safety factor for future travel. Anything that makes things safer, no matter the cost, is always worth doing.
Safer?, when was the last time somthing happened in Aus?.. this is all about voyerism and getting a good perv at some hotties. Special thanks to to the press for publishing the skinny broad x-rays instead of some salad dodger.
are you saying there are fat people with tiny willys that read this site??….Gee I would never have guessed.
Hope I didn’t offend any of you
Rob B….it’s OK to use the cubicle mate
Cancelling air travel altogether would make it even safer Rob B, so I assume you’d be an advocate of that option too?? Or how about we stop people travelling from country to country, or just be done with it and make it illegal for people to leave their homes at all??
“No matter the cost”??? Please get that pea-sized brain of yours out of sleep mode for a second or two before you speak.
And whilst Velcro may well be a moron, I think you’ll find that concerns about exactly what the security guards will be able to see under people’s clothes is the headline that all the press are going with, and we all know that what they say is gospel don’t we…..either have a giggle at the jokes or give us something insightful to think about.
PS. Apology accepted Velcro.
