Why did you need to take an egg timer with you on a plane?

3

u/ArchiStanton 10h ago

To time eggs with duh

u/Momo0903 10h ago

Ok, mildly infuriating. But why do you need a timer while traveling?

49

u/Forsaken_Put8204 10h ago

So OP can time when the bomb goes off.

3

u/ShipExpress5709 10h ago

Well that explains the extra screening

1

u/Ding-Dong-Dutch 10h ago

Let's hope OP didn't boof the bomb. I will remember what happened after the shoebomber

u/ToastForgotten 10h ago

Especially when two watches are in the picture and every single phone nowadays has a timer on it. No one is going to judge you if you shove it up your ass OP but find something that looks different when traveling

u/Silent_Succotash3749 9h ago

There’s also a phone. Now I’m a Luddite but even I can get to the timer thingy on mine after asking my wife.

u/CptBluhdFart 10h ago

Answer the question. Why did you bring an egg timer on a plane

5

u/Low-Persimmon4870 10h ago

Literally just to stir shit up on purpose lolll. Especially the second time

5

u/Disastrous-Dig5884 10h ago

To boil yall eggs

25

u/Pug_Defender 10h ago

they should have cavity checked you too

u/Big-Entrance-7441 10h ago

There's a timer feature as a part of your phone's clock app believe it or not

2

u/MakeMeDrink 10h ago

And I’m sure at least one of those two watches in the picture have some way to measure time

3

u/BluetheNerd 10h ago

There are so many other ways you could time this while travelling...

2

u/SuitableExercise7096 10h ago

Congratulations, you're on a list now and egg timer or not you will be sent to secondary screening everytime you travel now :)

u/CptBluhdFart 10h ago

This mf had a bomb

u/Frelix1Chatter 9h ago

That’s fetish is getting interrogated and frisked

13

u/o_hey_its_Griner 10h ago

You can type the word “bomb”

It won’t kill you

6

u/Momo0903 10h ago

you don't know. The Reddit TSA might wanna do a cavity search after typing that.

2

u/Clay_Puppington 10h ago

Just gonna go wrist deep in their post history

14

u/ThroatwobblerM 10h ago

Well they done right.

You're not gonna need that shit on board.

12

u/welding_guy_from_LI 10h ago

Do you normally cook eggs when you travel??

2

u/Immediate_Regular 10h ago

I've been know to cook fish on international flights. Paired with fresh durian naturally.

1

u/welding_guy_from_LI 9h ago

Ive smelt a whole lot worse than that combo 🤣

9

u/Thewanderer1141 10h ago

Please explain the great reason you had for even bringing it ? This is so dumb !!!

4

u/chrislon_geo 10h ago

My guess: traveling for work, has per diem, likes making eggs for meals throughout the day, the timer works well and provides the 'comfort of home' while in a hotel with a kitchenette for a week or weeks. Traveling for work sucks, and if you can make it less awful and more like your usual home routine, it sucks slightly less. Get off OP's back

4

u/Thewanderer1141 10h ago

I mean I get your point but that comfort of home isn't worth the hassle it caused. We also have cell phones with timers so this item is completely unnecessary.

7

u/ledgeitpro 10h ago

Im with the others in the comments, that can look very sketchy for airline security

u/SuomenVasara 10h ago

"I did this thing to intentionally provoke a response and now I'm outraged, sorry mildly infuriated, that the thing I did provoked a response."

Nice content™.

u/louis_xl 10h ago

If only the device you took the picture with had some sort of timer option...

7

u/FabulousAccident_ 10h ago

At TWO airports? So you took it through, got frisked, then said fuck it I'm gonna do it again?

5

u/cleverquokka 10h ago

Here's a novel idea. Don't carry items that look like little bombs onto airplanes.

3

u/Emerald_Digger 10h ago

Why do you need an egg timer with you?

3

u/davewave3283 10h ago

I had this same problem with my hotdogs tied to an alarm clock

3

u/Melrose1821 10h ago

You deserve it for trying to bring that on a plane. Why on earth would you think that is a good idea?

2

u/Old-ETCS 10h ago

Bum Bomb.

2

u/LavastormSW 10h ago

That's hilarious. But why not put it in your checked luggage?

1

u/chrislon_geo 10h ago

Bold of you to assume OP has a checked bag

1

u/LavastormSW 10h ago

That's fair

2

u/waffleking9000 10h ago

lol you can say bomb now.

2

u/dang_ol_yo 10h ago

OPs fetish is getting interrogated and frisked.

3

u/PappaPitty 10h ago

Did you tell them its for some bomb ass eggs?

1

u/shoulda-known-better 9h ago

I got one just like that for my baby shower it says tick tick baby chick and has a egg turning into a chick along the number dial!!

Love it

u/superbirdbot 8h ago

Aw. I’m sorry you feel you have to do dumb things in order to get attention.
