Marilyn sez, "It's the "Stop Groping Me" T-shirt, printed up with TSA directions on how to do an 'enhanced' pat-down: 'Breast area: Gently caress, using palm of hand. Try cupping chest area without squeezing...Buttocks: Grasp firmly and release.' There's more. Don't forget: National Opt-Out Day is Wednesday, November 24."

  • TSA: checkpoint groping doesn't exist
  • TSA demands testicular fondling as an alternative to naked ...

I write books. My latest is a YA science fiction novel called Homeland (it's the sequel to Little Brother). More books: Rapture of the Nerds (a novel, with Charlie Stross); With a Little Help (short stories); and The Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow (novella and nonfic). I speak all over the place and I tweet and tumble, too.

    Pah! This policy isn’t a bad thing. You people suck.
    I don’t even fly. When I go to the airport I say “I don’t have a ticket. I’m just here for the groping.” Now that is a T-shirt slogan!

  • Keneke

    You know, “Stop groping me!” would look funny on a tshirt all by itself!

  • urpBurp

    Sign me up for one! This TSA Big Brother crap is ridiculous. Won’t be having any pedo TSA agent watching nude pics of my kids or feeling them up when I refuse the scanner.

  • philipb

    I got to experience the “enhanced” pat down first had today. You now basically have 2 options, be photographed nude or be subjected to a humiliating search.

    Your choice Mr & Mrs American Public.

  • Talia

    I dare someone to wear that to the airport, then come back and share the results.

    Next up, the “Don’t Grope Me, Bro!” meme…

    Whew…for me, there’s an uncanny valley effect seeing the photos of the model with the 2D graphic overlaid. If a photo session can’t adequately show off the actual printed shirt, what chance does it have to be readable in the wild?
