sometimes it's funny others not so much.....

the wife and I went to subway a few years back (just remembered the story today) for dinner. there were 3 guys in line ahead of us wearing prison guard uniforms and no one else in the place except the two gals working. the guys got their food and sat down, we ordered and bless one of those gals pea picking heart! she looked up at me and said 'where'd you get those muscles?'

without missing a beat I said loud enough to be heard every where  "in prison" 

three prison guards snapped their heads around so fast I'm surprised they didn't get whiplash! one was raising his sandwich for a bite and froze halfway to his pie hole, and I swear he had the deer in the headlights look. I glanced over at them and said "just kidding guys, just kidding" the wife was already dying laughing.


then the last time I flew the TSA guy asked me if I had any weapons in my checked baggage I said "well let's see, I got a flame thrower, a rocket launcher...."  he said 'sir you can't joke about that anymore'  the wife was pissed for like 5 minutes I had to tell her to stop looking so constipated     didn't go over so well

I heard a lady in front of me being asked something similar a couple years ago. The TSA dude asked if anyone had packed something she didn't know about. She looked at him dumbfounded, then told him if so....then how would she know about it. All of a sudden the guy got a real sheepish look and joked that maybe he needed to rephrase the question.

joking about carry on  weapons usually will get you at least a 1-2 delay.

This has been a few years now, but my buddy and some friends were flying somewhere and he joked about a bomb in his pocket and he got to stay a while with TSA while his friends flew ahead. The whole town knew about it the next day

I was asked to place my shoes in a plastic tray so I stepped into the tray.  They didn't think it was funny, at all.
