I've had it work both ways, Jesse. Sometimes, yes. Sometimes, no.
Mal: We're still flying. Simon: That's not much. Mal: It's enough.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I think one should always assume yes.
Random Batman facts (I haven't checked submissions in FOREVER):
Batman COULD be President of the United States. It's just that he refuses to live in a white house.
Strip poker is the only thing Batman is not good at, by sheer force of will of everyone in the universe.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Bah. Stupid shoebombers. I guess I'm ending up barefoot in the airport no matter what, so I'll give it a shot.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Mmmmm, me too.
Me three.
It also makes me wonder who the same readers would put on the list of 100 sexiest men, if they are into that sort of thing.
It's got to be better than People's.

As teh resident "travels too much": yes, these days they generally even make you take off flip flops.

I can't remember which publication I read a few years ago that had a list of the top ten men found hot by lesbians, but nothing has ever made me feel gayer.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Do they make people with artificial limbs remove them for x-raying?
I'm just remembering a movie that had a meeting between rival mobs in some warehouse. Everyone was screened for weapons, but a guy with an artificial leg had a machine gun hidden in it.
Of course, wackiness ensued....

How many shoebombers have there been, anyway?

Well, they didn't give her the Gay Star (TM), so apparently not
The Gay Star confuses me, because there are several women on the list without one (Pink, Carmen Electra, Jorga Fox) who I thought were out as lesbians or bisexuals.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Do they make people with artificial limbs remove them for x-raying?
Do you mean at the airport or security checks? The answer is no. They get pulled aside and they wave the wand and it beeps and beeps because of all the metal joints and the person says, "I have an artificial leg" and that's it.
