And what codes are these? the pen-squiggle? the highlighter-check-mark?
Is it your hobby to try to sneak past TSA checkpoints? Are you successful often enough that you have been turned away at the gate for not having the proper 'codes'?
There are codes that indicate the level of screening you should get along with codes that have "Special screening" indicated on them. And then the TSA is supposed to squiggle in response. Buying a one way ticket usually means you get special screening, I hope the terrorists don't figure this one out.
>Is it your hobby to try to sneak past TSA checkpoints?
In a way yes. It is my hobby to get through these things as quickly as possible. Sometimes I go through the staff/express line, you get a long way by being friendly to TSA agents.
>Are you successful often enough that you have been turned away at the gate for not having the proper 'codes'?
Yes. TSA agents make mistakes and don't always check the passes properly. I swear with half the agents I could give them an ID for someone completely different, all they do is check that it "looks" real.
One time I almost missed a flight. One of the gate agents was nice enough to run back to security with me and hurry them along. Someone else watched my bag rather than wait and get it searched properly. Security theater at its finest.

Hey ho.
You can of course also edit these out while you're busy changing the name. It's all a joke.
