B.S.
Before a flight, a highly paid (given what they do) security theather monkey tried to demand that I forfeit an expensive bottle.
Knowing full well how it works in most countries, where the loots are split at the end of the day, I said "watch this", chugged it down, and voluntarily surrendered the now empty bottle.
At least I enjoyed it partly!
Even if later I did throw up during the flight, I prefer being sick than my luxury bottle being stolen by a security theater monkey.

- 1996 6y agoThe human body is wonderfully done: you then throw up. It was a smelly flight however. Sorry, plane ground! Sorry, seat neighbours! But it was funny when the stewardess asked my why I was sick: I just told the truth, I was drunk! What was she going to do anyway? Throw me out of the first class and into the main cabin?
