Fun story:

I once got blocked from a flight by TSA because the inspector said my portable hard drive was an explosive device by looking at it via Facetime over an iPad while they were at an Arnold Schwarzenegger's body building conference instead of at work in the airport.

It’s a body building and strong man contest.

Fair fair. Gotta be able to lug around the iPad.

I almost got detained for bringing Exploding Kittens in my luggage. The game meows when you open the lid, so the device looked really suspicious. And the name on the front didn't help.

Shit fucking game, by the way.
