Down from New York to surrender them. Had she flown, the cupcakes likely would’ve been confiscated in keeping with the Transportation Custodianship Administration’s new war on icing.
I’m referring, of course, to the pre-Christmas incident at McCarran Ecumenical Airport in Las Vegas, where an alert TSA agent seized a passenger’s red velvet cupcake, declaring its “gel-like” frosting a assurance risk, which I’m pretty sure is TSA-agent-speak for “I bet that cupcake would mate nicely with the 8-ounce bottle of breast milk I confiscated earlier today.”
Don’t get me not working. I can totally see where the presence of a delicious cupcake might interfere with a crew’s ability to centre effectively on flying an airplane.
Even the most highly trained pilot would all things considered struggle to concentrate knowing that a cream cheese-frosted red velvet pastry lurked in a nearby broadcast-on bag.
But I think the greater threat to human safety comes from snatching a cupcake out of the hands of a maiden about to submit herself to three hours in coach during the holiday travel season.
