TSA-holes

May 31, 2012
En route to Long Beach

As I'm going through security, you know -- taking all my clothes off, removing my shoes, emptying my pockets,  taking a breathalyzer, trying not to lose track of my stuff, pulling out all the plastic bags and tiny bottles of liquid in a frenzy --

TSA Agent:  So I see you've got a thing for chickens... [referring to my hen tattoo]
Me:  Heh!  Yes, I do.
TSA Agent:  How many do you have?
Me:  Just one.
TSA Agent:  You know chickens get lonely...
Me:  <laugh politely>
TSA Agent:  [looking at me intensely] You know chickens get ... LONELY ...


Oh god. Did that really just happen?
