To no real point, except security theater.

Period.

The Transportation Security Administration geniuses only imposed the rule years after the “shoe bomber” failed, maybe simply to distract us all from the also-maddening restrictions on liquids.

Enforcement has long been inconsistent, with some lines at some airports mysteriously exempted.

(No one dares ask why the rules are looser that day, and so risk TSA-agent revenge, whether a pat-down or enough delay that you miss your flight.)

Travelers under age 12 and over 75 apparently can’t hide explosives in their shoes, as they’ve long been completely exempt.

And of course forking over $78 to join TSA Pre-check also lets you stay shoed.

Even if TSA higher-ups pretend that tech advances allow the end of this idiocy, we have to suspect it actually reflects the nation’s new political leadership.

Maybe someday soon someone will pay some attention to the matter of the ban on toothpaste over 3.5 ounces . . .


Let’s be honest—no matter how stressful the day gets, a good viral video can instantly lift your mood. Whether it’s a funny pet doing something silly, a heartwarming moment between strangers, or a wild dance challenge, viral videos are what keep the internet fun and alive.
