    Which is more mysterious, “Area 51″ or “Area Recombobulation”?

    Filed under: Uncategorized — anne @ 3:03 pm

    The cognoscenti at Consumerist never disappoint.

    Their latest: the “Recombobulation Area” at Milwaukee’s Mitchell International Airport. Now, don’t get all excited — it’s just a “patch of carpet with a few chairs”. Apparently so you can put yourself together after the discombobulating process of “going through security.” Okay, I get it: it’s just a matter of getting you to smile.

    Or is it? Let’s see what Consumerist readers had to say:

    “Recombobulation” is what happens after you’ve been beamed down and all your particles must reconstitute themselves.”

    Aha. This reader, for one, will eschew further recombobulation:

    “Feh, who needs to recombobulate? I love traveling with my shoes on the wrong feet, my pants down around my ankles, my cell-phone stuffed down the front of my trousers and my underwear on the outside of my pants.”

    Amen, brother.
