Today, at the Eurostar customs, an officer asked me if I had packed my luggage myself. I teasingly answered "No, I was helped by a member of Al Qaeda." which earned me a body and luggage search and a missed train. FML

Hahahaha, that is hilarious. I agree with everybody else that it is a dumb thing to do, but I myself am fairly sarcastic and probably would've said it before I realized the repercussions that came along with it too.

That OP could have answered snarkier. Customs: "Did you pack your own bags?" -"No sir, Allah packed my bags."

I just find comments like this very islamaphobic.

This I think is hilarious! I am in the Marine Corps and in 2007 I was in Iraq (yes for the whole year) well for two weeks out of that year I was able to come home to see my family and while I was at the airport getting ready to fly back to Iraq the security stopped me to search me, I was already running late because it took the check in desk like 45 hours (not literally) to give passes to my family so they could come to my gate... I had my United States Marine Corps ******* uniform on and they stopped me for a "random" search, I was pissed and I let them have it! So anyway, knowing myself and how irritated I am by the pointless security and customs I would probably have made some sarcastic comment to them too!!! Definitely hilarious!

So? Just because you're a marine doesn't mean you should be excused from being searched; or is that only for the Muslims in the airport...

Aren't you out of regs by wearing your cammies at the airport?

...It's pretty common knowledge that you don't joke about stuff like that at security checkpoints...

yeah, even if they know you're joking, they have the POWER TO SEARCH YOUR ASS. Just be polite.

Customs officers can do damn near anything if they feel it's warranted, if you're driving a car across the border, they can tear apart your car to search it for drugs or anything else they don't want in the country, and no, they are not required to put it back together for you or replace anything that was damaged in he process.
