[–]HalpBogs 158 points159 points ago

Damn. That would cause one hell of a minor inconvenience.

[–]fecklessness 50 points51 points ago

CARPET CLEANER EVERYWHERE!!!!!!

[–]HalpBogs 80 points81 points ago

The attendants would be busy for MINUTES.

[–]NotaMethAddict 20 points21 points ago

And that's when the terrorists strike!

[–]Bryz_ 12 points13 points ago

You really think the attendants would strike?

Such a crafty edit, well done.

[–]inferno272 24 points25 points ago

this is only a distraction while everyone is busing cleaning up the mess they will unleash their real bomb vinegar + baking soda volcano

[–]Bryz_ 15 points16 points ago

Unlike TSA, which is a major inconvenience.

[–]OCELLARIS_CLOWNING 6 points7 points ago

You don't think the TSA does anything good? Some form of thorough airport security is necessary, if anything to deter crazy bastards from going AWOL on a plane with a hand gun. It may be a horrible inconvenience and totally needs revamping, but it's a necessary evil for now.

[–]vnkid 3 points4 points ago

Is it something about the job that brings out the worst in people, or is it that they're hiring a lot of bad people, or is it that the nature of their work just makes any crazy shit they do more noticeable to the public?

[–]ProsithiusErvingMott 2 points3 points ago

All the TSA folks I met were nice.

[–]vnkid 0 points1 point ago

Well I'm not saying all of them, just maybe a good deal more than in other professions, or at least more noticeable.

[–]Dreamwaltzer 0 points1 point ago

yes

[–]NNYPhillipJFry 0 points1 point ago

I think you used AWOL incorrectly. Also, airport security was fine the way it was. If you think the TSA is preventing another 9/11 I have a rock I would like to sell you that keeps tigers away (only works in CONUS).

[–]OCELLARIS_CLOWNING 0 points1 point ago

Hmm, for some reason I thought it also meant going berserk. Guess not. And I'm not saying it's preventing another 9/11, but hell, it probably has deterred somebody from pulling something on a plane. That's all I'm saying.

[–]bisensual 1 point2 points ago

When I got on a plane in Zagreb, Croatia, there were two guys with machine guns and a metal detector. They didn't ask for my passport or ticket, and just told me to 'have good flight, US boy.'

[–]Bryz_ -1 points0 points ago

I'm not necessarily complaining, I'm just mocking Reddit's typical behavior.

[–]404-shame-not-found -2 points-1 points ago

Are you retarded?

A pat down. Metal scanner, bag scanner. Away you go. Two minutes, and that's for the jerkest of jerkoffs who don't listen to rules about what goes where and carry on rules. Otherwise maybe one minute. Not complicated.

What I don't understand is why someone would bother using a plane in the first place You're still on the plane.

[–]sirmuskrat 34 points35 points ago

It's diet coke so it won't even leave a sticky mess. Amateurs.

[–]NotaMethAddict 52 points53 points ago

You hear that, everyone? He knows a lot about making mentos bombs! He's a terrorist too!

[–]megablahblah 10 points11 points ago

Don't worry, it's been logged by Trapwire.

[–]The_Painted_Man 1 point2 points ago

So relevant.

[–]TheAtomicPlayboy 105 points106 points ago

Prepare to meet your freshmaker.

[–]Wazowski 2 points3 points ago

This guy.

[–]always_horny_guy 27 points28 points ago

This is a rejected cover by Barry Blitt from The New Yorker Cover Department.

Tasteless humor and failed setups are an essential part of the process. “Sometimes something is too provocative or too sexist or too racist,” Mouly says, “but it will inspire a line of thinking that will help develop an image that is publishable.”

[–]emarkd 27 points28 points ago

Damn, now Mentos is going on the prohibited items list...

[–]4danno 21 points22 points ago

Go to airport

TSA checks your bag

"Sir, you are only allowed up to two breath freshening mints, I will have to confiscate this."

[–]bultonic 29 points30 points ago

And then the airport stores sell them for thirty dollars.

[–]jhc1415 0 points1 point ago

And they'll stop serving diet coke.

[–]Energy_Turtle 1 point2 points ago

Do people actually buy Mentos anyway? I'm almost 30 years old and I can honestly say I have never actually seen anyone purchase them, and I have seen only a few people with them in possession.

[–]EA_Support_Rep 2 points3 points ago

I quite enjoy the tropical ones

[–]Tactful 46 points47 points ago

If only they could craft a bomb out of popped ears, overpriced seats and disappointment.

[–]clubdepizza 22 points23 points ago

Sounds like something the Joker could do.

[–]naoptovke 3 points4 points ago

Please don't force me to link to the relevant Louis C.K. video.

[–]Dresdin 4 points5 points ago

You should enlighten him anyways.

[–]vnkid 1 point2 points ago

You know you want to, and I want you to also.

[–]scots23 1 point2 points ago

I was damn near deaf in my right ear after my last flight to Florida. Lasted for eight hours no matter what I did. I didn't even get any damn peanuts, either.

[–]AMexicanGuy 8 points9 points ago

I miss Shitty_Watercolour now :(

[–]The_Painted_Man 0 points1 point ago

Si.

[–]ZippyKitty 6 points7 points ago

I bet they'll get everyone to swallow pop rocks with coke too

[–]RossLH 7 points8 points ago

Or eat a couple bananas and chug a bunch of sprite.

[–]MrNapGeo 6 points7 points ago

this is feeding into a negative stereotype.

[–]Otaku_N1 4 points5 points ago

rasict ..... i dont like that kind of picture downvote me i you want

[–]pancake802 0 points1 point ago

We got some badasses over here

[–]drgmaster909 -1 points0 points ago

Clever? Try desperate.

[–]NoSeedsNoSeeds -1 points0 points ago

Source? Based on your title i dont think you created this and i want credit to be given where credit is do!

[–]TomekM 0 points1 point ago

Due*

[–]Epershand 0 points1 point ago

Would you be put into jail if you actually did this on a plane and people think it's a bomb?

[–]Sinnedangel8027 0 points1 point ago

Anyone else think the mentos guy's head wrap looks like a cowboy hat?

[–]ExtraDip 0 points1 point ago

Sad thing is, this would most likely be blown out of proportion by the media because of their appearance

[–]gulpeg 0 points1 point ago

Mentos - "the boommaker"

[–]footbdude 0 points1 point ago

Dude with the diet coke looks a heck of a lot like Liam Neeson. Ra's?

[–]TheDudeAmI 0 points1 point ago

Liam Neeson looks good in a beard.

[–]bignasty160 0 points1 point ago

is it just me or does the one on the right look like liam neeson?

[–]D_Hero_Reddit_Deserv 1 point2 points ago

It's not the middle eastern who are the terrorist always! Stop profiling!

[–]vifoxe 0 points1 point ago

Before I noticed the diet coke, I though this was implying that a catchy jingle was going to start playing and he was going to strut into the cockpit.

[–]arghnard 0 points1 point ago

DEATH TO INFIDELS!

........[pop!]............

.......

Fuck.

[–]ChewChewSwallow 0 points1 point ago

i imagined a goofy mentos commercial that makes light of some poor attempt at hijacking. Doo-doo-doo-doo doo-doo doo-wahhhhhh

[–]chattyWw 0 points1 point ago

thats why they only allow 100ml of liquids

[–]old_calico_cat 0 points1 point ago

Wow, I'm shocked. Is that actually a cartoon from "The New Yorker" that's kind of amusing?

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point ago

r/worldnews in 3...2...1...

[–]spiral_of_agnew 0 points1 point ago

Doesn't even look remotely like a drawing of Muhammad.

[–]bisensual 1 point2 points ago

"Let's wear totally different cultural attire, they'll ever suspect a Saudi AND a Turk!"

[–]MrShanty 0 points1 point ago

Remember kids: "they" are people who are different to you, and "they" are out to KILL YOU!

[–]manominous -1 points0 points ago

The guy in brown even seems pissed off about the flight attendant's exposed calf.

[–]FAMAJAH -1 points0 points ago

[–]Blade22 -1 points0 points ago

All Arabs are terrorists but not all Terrorists are arabs.
