I think there's a scandal on the horizon for this guy.

lmao

when he confessed that he prefers to be frisked at the airport, instead of undergoing a proper body scanner.

Hey! After I got scanned, I started sucking dick in the airport bathroom too.

After my scan, my stance got really wide all of a sudden

In 1999, Craig became sharply critical of U.S. President Bill Clinton for the Monica Lewinsky scandal. Speaking on NBC's Meet The Press, Craig told Tim Russert: "The American people already know that Bill Clinton is a bad boy – a naughty boy. I'm going to speak out for the citizens of my state, who in the majority think that Bill Clinton is probably even a nasty, bad, naughty boy."

He just couldn't maintain the dissociative barrier that he used to hypnotize himself into pretending he was straight anymore once he saw that cute twink flight attendant. Now all those repressed feelings are drowning him and he's desperate to blame literally anything outside his own biology for the strong feelings of attraction toward men assaulting his senses from every direction.

Know what else can turn you gay?

Being gay your whole life.

But, because your were brainwashed to believe that is wrong, and that it's a "choice," and because of course everyone is like you, you decide to go on a Jyhad to help other weak "sinners" like you wanting to slob a knob.

But hey, the flesh is weak, and sometimes you end up in a motel room with a twink and some meth, but you keep that shit on the down low low. Because a "demon" got in you.

After glancing at the picture of this person, I can honestly say that even stripped of this damning, projection laden context, I would have guessed the person pictured was gay.

Such a weird cope. "It's not me that's gay, it's the xrays, and the self checkouts, and the drive home from work, and the 5g, and..."

I think when you think all sorts of everyday experiences can "turn you gay", you might possibly be gay? And what do the scanners do to gay people? Turn them straight, or somehow more gay?

Like, I've tried all sorts of things in my life, including same-sex sex, and am still straight - like even if I were actively trying to change my sexuality it doesn't. Sometimes to my despair, as I get older, it would be easier to not have such a strong preference.

Can confirm. I was super straight until I locked eyes with that tall dark and handsome TSA agent on the other side of the machine. Sounds like this dude has a similar story.

[–] [email protected] 16 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Mate, you had to go through the scanner first …sorry to tell you, you’re still straight. Thoughts and prayers.

He's using that as an excuse to have gay sex on when he travels. When you get scanned on the way home it turns you back straight. Or makes you gay^2 more research needs to be done.

Yea! Always opt out of the scanner and get groped by a male TSA agent instead. That's definitely the less gay option!

...he sucked dick at airport toilet, didn't he?

Narrator : "He did, in fact, suck dick in the airport bathroom."

He doesn't want to go into the gay machine so he prefers to get patted down by other men.

Finally a conspiracy theory that's fun. Unfortunately, I keep going through the airport body scanners, but for some reason I'm not feeling gay

[–] [email protected] 17 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

They don't put the gayification beam on at all times, otherwise it would be too obvious.

When he used to suck off all his friends and their buddies, it was just doing some brothers a favor. But ever since getting scanned at the airport, he's starting to suspect that he might have tasted 300 dicks because he likes it.

Ok, this is obviously stupid, but if we can turn the power of the nutjobs against airport scanners and biometrics and such, I say bring on the crazy.

To be fair, every time he goes through one he has gay sex in the airport washroom. I mean, it is EVERY time for him. Quite the correlation for quite a lot of cum in his mouth.

[–] [email protected] 19 points 1 week ago

It turned him gay after one scan! That is why, when his wife called the hotel room, a random guy answered the phone. He explained to her that her husband is now gay because of the airport scanner and he would be turned back once he scanned again. "They work like switches, he said to her, and then added, "and boy was your husband turned on!” He went in to explain it always makes her husband gay when travels.

We need to encourage this belief that way we can keep those plague rats contained

... and adds, "so if anyone catches me sucking dick in the airport bathroom, that would be why."

In case anyone is wondering why they say stupid shit like this, it's because they need to be able to convince a whole lot of stupid people that being gay can be "cured", just as it can be caused. And the cure? Religion.

It's all a big scam.

"Refuse airport bodyscan searches!"

"Because they're a means of privacy invasion and demostrates the TSA's pointless existence yet dangerous power?"

"No, becuase they'll turn you into a sausage-loving twink!"

Stop it! Stop giving stupid people attention. Seriosly. They feed their stupidity with attention. Just ignore, dont't share and they will dissapear.

As stupid as this is, I see mostly positive consequences coming from this: either they'll oppose TSA, or they'll refuse to fly. Both sound like a win to me.

Then why was I gay before I ever flew? Seriously when I was young and my peers were getting crushes on girls, I was getting crushes on boys. Seems I always liked boys and was never interested in girls.

Hmmm... Every gay person I know has drank water. He should probably stop drinking water just to be safe.

Maybe they just got the full scope-and-grope experience and decided they liked it.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 week ago

Dude, you were gay already and just hadn't admitted it to yourself.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 week ago (1 children)

So now that the airport scanner made you gay, what are you going to do with your new gayness?
