It reads like a hoax, but I did some Googling, and prisons apparently have been using “anal” scanning chairs for a while now. Reportedly the British embassy in Kabul, Afghanistan is now using the creepy chairs as well. (How long before we have to sit down for an anal exam at the nation’s airports too?) Oh, the chairs do vaginal exams too. (No word on whether they offer you a cigarette after.)

Many Russians consider beer a soft drink – a light refresher that can be guzzled on the way to work or sucked down in great quantities before a picnic and a swim in the river.
