My left calf… It’s so much smaller than my right now… And there’s nothing I can do about it yet.

daddywalt said: not me. soooo tired of violent action movies.
That’s like all I ever want to watch… :-/
But now I REALLY want to see it.
Rain? during my field work??
It’s more likely than you think.
Happened to me all the time.
This morning, a TSA officer at LAX humiliated and shamed my 15-year-old daughter. She is traveling with a group of high school students on a college tour and we were not with her when he verbally abused her.
The TSA dipshits at LAX, in addition to the general “we hate our jobs so fuck you for being here” attitude from 90% of the LAX employees drove me to abandon LAX and fly out of Burbank instead, even if that means I have a 2+ hour layover.
Yes, it is worth spending 2 hours somewhere else so I don’t have to deal with LAX at all. LAX is a giant pile of fail.
Know what, I’m not even going to defend this guy at LAX. When it’s my airport and a cranky older gentleman (Chewbacca) says they were GOING to take his cane away, that’s different than this.
The man, who was probably one of the older guys that work there, should have kept his mouth shut. Unless her outfit was causing a security concern, then there is no reason to comment on it, unless you like the clothes and compliment them. I’m constantly telling people that I like their shirt because it’s got something geeky on it.
One of the points of the job is to NOT to try to cause a scene, and this jackass did. It may not have occurred at the checkpoint, but it did outside the airport.
