The Rules

Posts must be:

  1. Links to news stories from...

You can’t. My guess is, it was a party or off the clock silliness.

You can’t even wear your own clothes in those machines. Hospital gowns couldn’t handle the weight of even the smallest handgun.

The details are purposely scant because it had to be reported but they didn’t want to share what really happened.

Had an MRI a couple of weeks ago. Wore my own clothes. Tech did say I should lower my trousers to my knees when I pointed out that there was a fly zip, but didn’t seem too bothered.

Zips are brass alloy and non-magnetic

I’d never considered what they were made of. Live and learn.

I've done MRI 3 times. Wore my own clothes all three times.

I had a head MRI a few weeks ago. They didn't make me take off my clothes, they just triple checked I had nothing metal on me or inside me by asking me several times.

There don't need to be additional details. She snuck a gun into the MRI room and found out why you shouldn't do that.

She fucked around, then she found out.
