I am pretty easy to drink with. I work from a bar with wifi a couple times a week.

Itâs just dumb. Do you know how hard it would be to mix chemicals for a bomb on a plane? Virtually impossible. âŚ

âdo something super stoopid, you are banned. Havenât had rum since.â
Waaaaaaaaaait just a minute there buster. You are blaming the RUM???
(Who gets the ban: the 2/3âs drunk or the 1/3 not drunk?)
Technically yes, but itâs probably illegal, if nothing else itâs going against the spirit of the rules, which could be enough to get you in legal trouble.
No, I blame me, I know the rules and I dun goofed. So I lost my rum privileges.

Not to mention the rules of the spirits.

Thatâs the very point; if the rules are stupid they donât have to be adhered to as long as you donât get caught.
Who does The Man think he is, to prevent people from tasting stuff not available locally?

Did they hold out a basket (yâknow, for the fucking lotion)?
Or maybe, and Iâm just saying maybe, Beijing airport security wanted a bottle of cognac. Maybe.

Nearly got detained once, at Bangkok, for having more than two litres of vodka in my carry-on. Because sheer stupidity. Was on Melbourne to Delhi flight (with Bangkok stopover, obviously) and stocked up on duty-free absolut - my fave - at melb but forgot about liquid restrictions in transit. And somehow missed seeing the enormous and numerous âonly this much liquid allowedâ signs at bangkok. So when I went to board the plane to Delhi, the security people were screaming at me (in Thai, which I donât speak) after my bag was x-rayed and started to drag me somewhere until I put the bottles in the bin. Which nearly brought me to tears at the waste. But lesson learned: donât buy ridiculous amounts of alcohol on the way out of the country!

Yeah, because throwing away your vodka made everyone safer.
Last time I got caught by that sort of thing was when I was flying business and transiting through Copenhagen. Iâd got one of those toiletry bags given to me by the airline so I took it with me, but going back through security to get to my connecting flight they took exception to it, so I binned it. Too much trial sized mouthwash, or toothpaste? Seems weird that airlines would give you stuff on the plane thatâs a threat on subsequent flights, but there you go.

Yeah, I know. Itâs all security theatre bullshit. But trying to fight it on my own, when I donât speak the language, was beyond me.

Maybe they brought the hand lotion, but not the fucking lotion.

Oh I agree, Iâm just saying I personally wouldnât try it.
I dunno. Sounds like she was just taking a principled stand, followed by a principled falling down a lot.
