TORONTO – Practical jokes are supposed to get a good laugh out of people, not induce rage around the world.
Such is the case with certain hyper-real stickers of wall outlets that are being placed around airports. Available for purchase on Amazon for about US$9, the stickers have already been spotted this year at various airports in the U.S., including Los Angeles International Airport and St. Louis Lambert International Airport.
Sometimes they’re placed on sensible spots along walls where outlets should be, while other times they pop up on items like garbage bins that make no sense at all. Either way, they’ve tricked one too many travellers and have caused a firestorm on social media.
People putting outlet stickers on walls at airports are the real terrorists
