Dangerous Terrorists

[danalwyn]

I was told by the nice man at the airline counter that I cannot use the Easy Check-In at airports anymore, even if I buy e-tickets, because my name appears on the Federal No Fly List.

I R DANGEROUS!

....COOL.

Dammit, all my friends are on the No-Fly List except me. Poot.

I wouldn't recommend trying to get on it. It's probably bad for your career.

We have nothing to fear except SCARY TERRORISTS! SCARY do you hear me, SCARY!

Haven't you heard? Liberals aren't allowed to fly any more.

You have to take the bus.

And sit in the back.

I have it on good authority that your name is not only on the No Fly List, but it's on the Shoot Immediately List.

[bladed-crescent.livejournal.com]

Hey, I've been downgraded from the Shoot Immediately and Set On Fire List.

I think that one is reserved for Muslims only in this country.

So... why is that then? Your country is strange, odd, and really feckin' weird from the outside looking in, you know that?

[danalwyn.livejournal.com]

Someone who has a similar name to mine is deemed a threat and is not allowed to fly. Since I do not know which name triggered the alert, I don't know how valid the reason for that name being on there is.

Bottom line, they have to check just to make sure that I'm not this guy with a different name.

Is someone with the same name as you the real No Fly list? Because, if you were on the No Fly list shouldn't that mean you aren't allowed to fly at all, regardless of the Easy Check-ins?

[danalwyn.livejournal.com]

Someone with a very similar name apparently (I don't get to know how similar). Apparently we're not the same person, but I have to get checked so that they make sure.

I'm not sure who this guy is though...

[nightdog-barks.livejournal.com]

... do I know you?

Heh.

[danalwyn.livejournal.com]

Nope.

Or at least, you should hope not.

My first thought on reading this was 'Cool.'.

My second thought was 'I shouldn't be thinking that -- nope, still cool.'.

Possibly I have Issues, but I still do think it's vaguely cool.

[danalwyn.livejournal.com]

I'm slightly impressed myself, so that doesn't mean anything.

It is sort of cool I guess, although it could be a pain at the airport.
