The thing that interests me most is that neither of the two articles I read on this guy's shirtless lavatory shaving escapades took a moment to question:
HOW DID HE GET A RAZOR ONTO THE PLANE?



message 2: by [deleted user] (new)

Is a safety razor considered a disposable razor?



message 3: by Sarah (new)

Sarah | 13814 comments I've had mine taken away at least once before. And as of last week they made my roommate check her entire backpack.


message 4: by [deleted user] (new)

I guess that was what I was wondering. We have thousands of razor blades(single edge) here at work(not used in razors), and if you could take these out of a razor in flight they would be quite deadly.


message 5: by Sarah (new)

Sarah | 13814 comments Cheapo plastic razors can do some damage too, say my legs.


message 6: by [deleted user] (new)

Where's the shoe bomber when we really need him?


message 7: by Sarah (new)

Sarah | 13814 comments Still in jail, I hope.


message 8: by RandomAnthony (new)

RandomAnthony | 14536 comments Are they still doing that "hands in lap" thing?

I think everyone should wave their hands in the air while flying, and wave them like they just don't care.

Youndyc | 1255 comments RA, I'm going to try that on my next flight. I wonder what hijinks might ensue?


message 10: by [deleted user] (new)

You would certainly think he could have found a better place, but like you say maybe they are trying to see how far the envelope can be pushed.

janine | 7709 comments pushing the envelope can be tricky, push too hard and they will invest in better envelopes. that's probably not what terrorists are after.


message 12: by [deleted user] (new)

Then again maybe the goal is to get regulations so tight that there is a revolt that loosens restrictions way up.

More than likely though there was some logic in his mind that I will never understand.

No alcohol on planes!?!? But that would make the crying babies and the loud talkers behind me so much louder!


message 14: by Sarah (new)

Sarah | 13814 comments It has been pointed out to me that this thing exists called an "electric razor" which one might also be able to plug in while in the lavatory.

But if he were using an electric razor that would make the need to remove his shirt even more bizarre, right guys?


message 16: by Félix (new)

Félix (habitseven) Yes.


message 17: by Youndyc (new)

Youndyc | 1255 comments He was trying to eradicate the giant L someone shaved into his chest the night before when he was passed out on the couch.


message 18: by Youndyc (new)

Youndyc | 1255 comments I have no reason to belive that is the case, I'm just making shit up.


message 19: by Félix (new)

Félix (habitseven) Good job of it, too.


message 20: by Youndyc (new)

Youndyc | 1255 comments It seemed like L would be the appropriate letter to shave into this guy. LOSER!


message 21: by Youndyc (new)

Youndyc | 1255 comments Or, is that too judgmental?


message 22: by Félix (new)

Félix (habitseven) I think it's appropriate.

Sally (mrsnolte) | 17373 comments Mod
I was wondering why "L" in particular. If I were to shave a letter into a drunk inebriated man I'd make a big P.


message 24: by Youndyc (new)

Youndyc | 1255 comments Sally, I'm afraid to ask. But I really want to know...... okay, why P?


message 25: by Youndyc (new)

Youndyc | 1255 comments Sally?

L, like for looooser. You know, like the sign on the forehead with the thumb and forefinger.

Good question.

::settles in and watches for Sally's reply::

Youndyc | 1255 comments Prick? Party-pooper? Poophead? Piddles?

scratches head and joins Heidi

Piddles - that's my mom's dog's name... sort of - Daisy Piddles




message 30: by Youndyc (new)

Youndyc | 1255 comments Is she a cocker spaniel? I had a cocker spaniel when I was a kid that piddled all the time. Never got housebroken. So the word reminds me of her - we called her Toodles.


message 31: by Heidi (last edited Jan 13, 2010 07:20AM) (new)

Heidi (heidihooo) | 10825 comments Her pic is on my profile page, youndyc. :) She's a cute little FLUFFball. That's what she iiis.


message 32: by Youndyc (new)

Youndyc | 1255 comments She IS a cute little fluffball!!! That's the kind of dog I need. Scooby never cuddles.


message 33: by Heidi (new)

Heidi (heidihooo) | 10825 comments She doesn't cuddle much. She mostly chews and bites (CUTE bites and chews).


message 34: by Youndyc (new)

Youndyc | 1255 comments It'd be all cute until she bit into my favorite shoes and then we might have a problem.


message 35: by Heidi (new)

Heidi (heidihooo) | 10825 comments Well, that's where we luck out - she wants skin. She isn't eating shoes... at least not yet.

A P would be funny. "pee" hehehehehe.


message 38: by Youndyc (new)

Youndyc | 1255 comments Sally, I'm so glad to finally get your answer! I had to wait like, what, a day?

Sorry, there have been lots of new unread threads. I forget which ones to return to.
