I was so desperately wishing that:
Everyone had several snickers at the undies, as they toured around the carousel about 20 times before Air Canada finally started spitting out baggage. I pity the fool whose luggage landed on those underwear, and can only hope they were a CLEAN balled up pair of orphaned underwear.
Once the couple beside me realized I had taken a photo, (you know, and after they accepted the fact that I was very odd), we all made cracked some solid one-liners to each other. I think it is the first and only time another traveller has ever spoken to me at the baggage carousel.
The moral of the story?
ORPHANED UNDERPANTS UNITE.
Also?
The New Husband AKA the Former Feyoncé™ is the zipper king.
Also?
I was still totally buzzed upon arrival after those 3 triples in the departure lounge. But at least this wasn't an I-remember-seeing-random-underwear-in-the-airport-while-drunk stories with no photographic evidence. I took those photos to share with YOU, dear reader.
Once again, you're welcome.
Or whatever.

Pin It Now!
- This would have been tagged with a fluorescent orange Air Canada "priority baggage" tag, stuck somewhere. Anywhere.
- Someone came running back to the luggage carousel, out of breath, exclaiming "THERE they are!!"
- That I could have temporarily ignored my disdain for germs and run to the carousel, shouting back at The New Husband AKA the Former Feyoncé™, "Honey, honey! I got them! Don't worry, the carousel didn't put a hole in 'em!"
- People wouldn't hear my non-smart-phone's EXTRA LOUD shutter sound whenever I take a photo, thereby completely revealing that I took a shot of this rarely-seen luggage carousel gold mine:

| There, in the centre, lies a balled-up pair of men's underwear. So lovely. |

In the 00's, a bro's awesome quotient was multiplied by the number of popped collars he was sporting. 2-3 was awesome, 6 was god-like.
ReplyDeleteIn the 10's, I'm guessing we can let zippers be the new measuring stick. Go Hubs!
@Lost.in.Idaho - He had no zipper-management skills that day, whatsoever. If he'd have done up the outer zipper, all this mocking would have never even happened. But I like the way you think. hehe.
DeleteThat...is a lot of zippers. And neat, underwear. Ick.
ReplyDelete@Gia - (In a booming "Wizard of Oz" Wizard voice)" "BOW DOWN BEFORE HIM!!")
DeleteLove the zippers. The underwear is a strange thing to see at the airport. That is what is so exciting about going out. Anything can happen.
ReplyDelete@Belle - Extra exciting for me, since I tend to not leave the house. ;)
DeleteI once watched a suitcase fall apart bouncing off the walls of the conveyer belt. Clothes everywhere. A few sex toys. A shaver (male). An umbrella that opened and added to the chaos. It was quite the scene.
ReplyDelete@Keith - If that's a true story, I wish I had been your travelling companion. Hey, since you never specified, was it your suitcase? hehe.
DeleteNo. I've just spent a lot of time in airports. All sorts of odd stuff happens, if you keep your eyes open.
DeleteTrue enough. My eyes were half closed at this point, so I'm surprised I saw even this.
DeleteI had a pair of boys jocks fall out of a shopping bag one day at the supermarket checkout. A little embarrassing.
ReplyDeleteA sure bet those carousel ones never get claimed
My New Blog – “Lizard Happy”
@Mynx - I sure wouldn't want to be the baggage claim attendant to have to handle those babies. I wonder if they still have to tag/file/hang on to them, in case someone came back or called looking for them?
DeleteAs for your fallen jock - at least people probably knew you were a mom and they weren't yours. lol. Oooooh, new blog!
oh god
Deletei may never EVER fly with checked luggage again
-so creeped out-
Just be sure your zipppers are secure!
DeleteIf only a frantic looking naked man had come sliding down the luggage chute with the baggage.
ReplyDeleteAlso, ALL HAIL THE ZIPPER KING!!!!
@Tom G. - That is freaking awesome! I can picture it so clearly... wish I'd thought of that! lol.
DeleteThe zipper king apparently didn't appreciate being admired via the blog. But maybe one person hailing him will make up for it?
