Friday Rant

[psychocandy]

I was stopped a while back at UK airport for jokingly mentioning "I am not a terrorist". I was arrested and told by a jobs worth that that kind of language is banned. I argued my case re: free speech?

Iasked to see where it was written that there was a restiction on language and told "no you cannot see a copy of the rules".

Probably the rule that says staff are sick of people who think they're funny and have to listen to this all day long.

Last time I flew I told them I had a least a liter of liquid with me, upon asking me to show it to them I pulled my penis out and piddled all over the place as I had just had 4 pints of lager

Don;t get me going on baby milk though. Whole system sort of falls down here to be honest.

Baby has got to have milk otherwise babies wouldnt be able to fly. 100ml doesnt really cut it so they let you on.

In reality, you're only supposed to take as much as needed for consumption. But who measures this? Also, they're supposed to make you taste it but then they;re supposed to make you taste most of it.

Sort of knackers things because you need to keep milk sterile so cant go and open all the cartons.

Last time we flew fronm Gatwick and they've got a family security bit which was nice. The security people were fine but it did highlight that this causes the system to fail somewhat.....

Then again, babies on 9 hour flights is hard work as well. Not helped by tossers at Virgin decided we could have the front row (with baby bassinets) after all because they'd now sold them as upgraded seats to someone else.

Is breastfeeding on the plane not allowed?

Is breastfeeding on the plane not allowed?

Far as I know. My baps arent big enough though.

On a serious note though, not everyone breastfeeds out of choice or for other reasons.

Only for nazis.

And why is this thread still here? Its a Friday rant not a Monday rant.
