Comdex Bans Bags From Show Floor

Posted by timothy on from the bring-large-hands dept.

ckd writes: "CNET is reporting that COMDEX organizers have a new security policy--no bags except vendor supplied plastic bags will allowed on the show floor. "While on-site, you should CARRY A PHOTO ID (DRIVER'S LICENSE OR PASSPORT) ON YOU AT ALL TIMES." They want you to leave your laptop in your hotel room, too! Oh, and no cameras at the keynotes, either. But they haven't announced that they're planning to strip search people ... yet."

    Oh, man, that's beautiful.
    Simply beautiful.

    Although I thought CmdrTaco was named CmdrTaco because he likes to shove taco shells up his ass and have CowboyNeal spank him, smashing the shell inside and driving the shards into his puckered filthy anus.

    Eh, just a guess.

    It's not 'Commander', it's 'Commodore'.

    You remember the Commodore 64, right?

    A search I can stand, using it as a means to ensure you buy their SHITTY, overpriced food is another thing entirely. Am I the only one that thinks the enemy can win without ever lifting another finger ?

    Not true. There are PLENTY of age 35+ people making a more than decent salary these days. To most of these people a $20 movie trip and then $40 dinner is not a big deal.

    There will always be customers.

    I suspect the reason you would have to close your door is that guy porno theaters just aren't in demand anymore, what with home video and all.
