This is the very definition of a rage-inducing prank. Bravo, Dave. You devious bastard you.

United Airlines cannot catch a fucking break this week, dude. As the utter PR catastrophe that was Dr. Dao being forcibly removed from a flight (suffering concussion/other injuries in the process) unfolds, seemingly destined to only get worse...they get stung with this nightmare. Bruh. You can't have locked and loaded scorpions falling from overhead storage areas on your flights. Sure, this kind of madness probably pops up every now and again; but I can't think of a worse time for the company. Truly.

Is that a sword in your pocket or are you just happy to see me?
This 80-year-old woman probably wouldn't be able to answer because she accidentally tried to carry a sword onto an airplane. She didn't realize that her innocent looking cane was actually a secret sword sheath. What's the point of even having a cane sword if you're not gonna use it.
Imagine having the coolest kind of sword (one that looks like a cane) and not even knowing it. What a waste. But apparently, this is a pretty common thing, according to TSA.
“She had no clue it was in there,” said Mark Howell, TSA regional spokesman. "“It happens a lot, actually. People pick them up at a thrift store and the sword isn’t found until we X-ray it.”

You might remember that terror of a tale we recently ran over here, involving news of a woman being kicked off her flight for showing too much cleavage. Blasphemous! Am I right? Well, we've come full circle on the matter with her latest little update about the whole unfortunate occurrence. And let me just be the first to say here, that Spirit Airlines has yet to fail us in the way of keeping their flights predictably chaotic and absurd.
