Conspiracy Theory

Even the locals have taken issue with my baggage. As we were checking in two days ago, some random guy says to Mike, "You brought a shitload of stuff, eh?" I'm not sure Mike realized I was within earshot before responding, "Not me, man, it's her."

As this exchange is taking place, the handle on one of my bags has a suspiciously clean break from the bag itself.

Coincidence? I think not.
