I hate when I arrive in Toronto, only to find that my little person is in Calgary.

airport staff decided against filing charges even though they were "shocked and humiliated" by Wednesday's stunt.

In what way were they humiliated? Suitcase full of horse manure explodes in your face when you insist on further inspection of someone's baggage? That's humiliating. A dwarf pops out? Not so much.

You're not really going to get away with jamming a dead one into the coffin of his also-deceased lover, either.

Well, it would be kind of cruel to stick them in the overhead compartment. Checking them is far more humane.

So, Swedish Airport staff don't have a sense of humor either (or it had long since been worn down by asshat customers). At least they didn't send the little guy through the x-ray machine, I'm betting he would have been exposed to a few more roentgens than at your average doctor's office.

FTA-' Kanal 5 spokesman Dan Panas told Swedish news agency TT that the show was meant to be "provocative and entertaining."'

yeah, right.

Little people are so cool and funny.

Ya' see that's what is really wrong, ZenGuru's pic has 6 tiny nipples in it and I refuse to question the gender of the cute lil things but what if only one happened to be...um...of the female persuasion?

If midge-titties are appropriate viewing material at your job, then you must have some interesting stories to share about your workplace. Do tell. It's just between us.

Oh please. Packing toenail trimmers is more than enough to get into with those freaks. (Not the dwarves, the airport staff)

 
wildcardjack 2008-07-24 06:24:42 PM  
Other suggestions?

Use aluminum foil to create gun shapes for carry on baggage.

Actually, aluminum foil shapes of all sorts come to mind. If you have the proper lead time you can sew the foil in between layers of material, really screwing up any chance of making it through quickly.

If this happened in the U.S., there would already have been fifteen lawsuits filed, including one by the ACLU. The reverand Al would have issued a statement, and Greta van Sustern would be interviewing the head of the Lollipop Guild. Those involved would be sitting in a TSA holding cell. God bless america; we're all going to hell.

 
Ikahoshi 2008-07-24 10:42:23 PM  
Airport security staff deserves to be humiliated once in awhile for being such self righteous a**holes. Especially considering 90% of what they do is ineffective from a security standpoint.

Metal detector, x-ray of luggage is pretty much the best that can be done. Everything else is either a waste of time to reassure the paranoid folks, or to remind the plebes that they're to obey authority without question.

As for Toronto's airport... Worse is O'Hare in Chicago.

My personal #1 for worst airport: Vancouver. Designed by a moron, operated by morons.

 
Supplenuts 2008-07-24 11:14:50 PM

Death at a Funeral. Hilarious movie.

And frankly, it's kinda surprising they even found the midget. Must have been a sharp bunch.

/Flown into/out of O'Hare a couple times...wasn't that bad(Compared to Montego Bay Jamaica. Holy christ, that's a biatch of an airport. It's actually gotten a bit better over the years though)

These guys need to get some original material. Mancow did this a decade ago at O'Hare. Since it was pre-9/11 hilarity did, in fact, ensue.
