Reminds me of the story of the famous TV/movie director who told the TSA agent that he was in town "to shoot a pilot."

What is particularly funny to me about this, is one of my friends had a rotation where his job was to blow up lithium batteries

 

[Let'sgoflying!]

what about the brits who may have a can of shaving cream in the bag?
Their vernacular for aerosols? "Bombs"

*argh* Another XKCD linker without the alt-text (hover text).

The alt-text that goes with this is: "A laptop battery contains roughly the stored energy of a hand grenade, and if shorted it ... hey! You can't arrest me if I prove your rules inconsistent!"

It's OK...TSA is one of the few groups you're allowed to bash outside the Spin Zone!

I was going to mention the alt text, but it was kinda just a rehash of the comic's text this time... I'll do better next time!
