If you are like me, you HATE going through airport security, not because you are trying to hide anything but there is just something terrifying about people in uniform who have the ability to hold you captive and search your cavities. So when I found the TSA’s Instagram account I was happy to see that the officers do in fact have a sense of humour.  The TSA uses the account to post all the weird items they see coming through customs, some allowed and some not, they also encourage flyers to snap photos of questionable items before they pack and tag them on Insta, they will let you know if you can pack it in your checked or carry-on baggage. It’s worth more than a few giggles and whomever is captioning these photos deserves an award because they’re priceless!!
