Well dressed Indian businessman ahead of me in security at toilet-town "airport" puts his explosive-proof ziplock bag full of toiletries in the tray. Security muppet, aged about 19 looks hard at it and very condescendingly tells him it isn't legal. He naturally enquires why and is told its an inch too wide...and he must buy a replacement bag for an outrageous amount of money from a nearby slot machine. he looks utterly flummoxed as well he might but complies politely and tries to stuff his goods into the smaller bag which wasn't big enough to close. The jobsworth security muppet-girl accepts this (despite the bag now lacking its explosive-proof capabilities by being open) despite it being as "illegal" as the extra inch had been a minute ago. Businessman looks completely disbelieving and tries to reason with muppet, saying, "I can't see what difference it makes, you are an intelligent person..."
This surely has to be the daftest SLF comment ever!
