When the terrorists empty their liquid explosives into there, you’ll get to smell like piss while the flesh burns off of your bones.
Liquids may be dangerous, so let’s mix them all together!
The risk is explosive so mixing them with other fluids is probably not a problem.
They are not dangerous, that’s not the reason they are not allowed.
Oh darn guess I’ll have to pour my separate bottles of bleach and ammonia in there since they’re not allowed past security checkpoint.
Thinking the same thing. Oh shoot! I need to pour my bromine out! Proceeds to dump 1 gallon of fuming bromine into liquid receptacle.
Are swamp water and jungle juice the same thing?
I think swamp water is soda only.
I’m imagining them having to change out the bag or… I guess bag-less bin…?
Unless this goes into a drain which is… equally super weird, actually, because it isn’t sink-shaped or anything… so now I’m imagining this super tall trash can with like a weak little drain at the bottom full of straws and bottle caps and stuff.
I am actually a janitor at an airport and these have little hoses on the back that we just put into the drain in the janitor closet. They smell like rotten eggs and midew at the same time and are the single most disgusting thing I have ever had to clean.
Most of them have either a grate on top to prevent trash getting in or a separate chamber on the inside that filters out solids.
Thank you for your service. Right now I feel the same feeling when someone says “ew this milk smells, smell it”
I always tell people " what do you mean? This smells perfectly fine, your just being a sook.
That’s so much worse than I imagined, I’m so sorry. Nobody should have to deal with that for security theater.
What if we kissed 👉😚👈 over a jug of airport jungle juice?
What if we held hands over the burning chemical reaction of the fluids dumped in there mixing together?
Boston Airport won’t even sell you a beer before 11. Damn puritan masshole laws
Calgary has a liquor store in the domestic terminal after security. Not a duty free, a liquor store. Just in case you want a 5th during take off.
My hometown has that as well. We’ve got some of the cheapest booze in the country because of how our taxes work
Sure beats buying 10 tiny bottles before the flight.
That’s pure evil
But, if they’re explosive, wouldn’t emptying your explosive with a soup of everyone else’s explosives, be a bad idea? Unless… is all this “security theater” just for show??
E: grammar
The point isn’t that liquids are explosive, the point is that water messes up the explosives detection. It’s “liquids are not allowed, because water is a false positive for explosives and we want to avoid the false positive”.
That’s why it’s starting to get allowed in many airports - they updated their detectors to newer technology where water is no longer a false positive.
Nobody thinks your bottle of water is a bomb.
That makes sense and would almost reassure me if they didn’t have a 95% failure rate in tests. The data is super old but I can’t find anything to suggest it’s improved since then.
According to several TSA agents in my travels to and around the US, at least, when I asked why my water had to be discarded, they all said variations of the same thing, “it could be an explosive”. And the news broadcasts I’ve seen when this measure was first implemented were telling people that these “new types of explosives” look like water and are hidden inside water bottles, and the water can even be sipped on without harm to the person from the heavier-than-water liquid explosive. So, while it may have been a lie, it was one that approved the measures. “False positives” were never communicated.

Okay. unzip
All liquids you say?
We called that Hairy Buffalo back in the day
Instructions unclear, unzips…
When in Rome, use the Roman urinal?
It says all liquids!
Look, I’ve been in this air terminal for the past three days, no thanks to CrowdStrike…
I dunno where else to empty my [redacted] collection bottle, but I had to entertain myself somehow…

“Sir, you forgot to pour in your blood…”
I bet that smells just like my Mom’s pussy.
Nephew, delete this

When you smelled it last night did it remind you of that?
Oh I haven’t been to Boston since last Tuesday.
Next time you pass, throw a packet of yeast in there.
Some people just want to watch the world burn.
Or get foamy and smell like bread, as the case may be.
What do you mean? It’s probably too acidic to have any big reactions with yeast, no?
Regular beer/bread yeast can handle pH down to 4, so I think it is likely to work.
Or a mentos!
Could even mix the yeast into a bottle of sugar syrup beforehand to give the juice a boost of yeast food. And less suspicious when dumping it.
I have no idea what you’re talking about, that’s my homemade kombucha. I was going to try it for the first time on the flight, but I guess that’s not happening now.
