Those are terrible jokes, and not in the 'in-poor-taste' variety.
Honestly, I'm not particularly thrilled at another 'hyper-nationalistic day of remembrance'. We've already mourned, we've already gone over a decade of 'too soon', why can't people stop flooding my Facebook with flags and other shit?

You're right. I don't see why people still think and care about this. I become so bored when I hear people talking about this. First time I heard about it I researched about it a whole day and was so interested in it, but then it became just a piece of history that no one really cares about anymore. This honestly just brings more bad things than good

Nice jokes. For those of us who are old enough to remember the time, what were you doing when you found out about it? I woke up on September 12th which was a Thursday and found out the Dragon Ball Z was cancelled that morning and watched some of the TV footage which was on all the channels.

The first class at school that day was religious studies and we just sat around in a circle in the school hall (there were only a few of us) and talked about what a horrid event it was and how people had jumped from the tower and stuff. Thankfully it was a Buddhist class so it fit in quite well with "existence is suffering". I don't remember doing much else for the rest of the day though.

I remember being in School when it happened. Everyone who was an adult was freaking out and us kids were trying to figure out what was wrong. The next day, there was this huge assembly about it, I remember being bored because most assemblies are either sports related or kids receiving awards I'd never get because the school district's superintendent was hell-bent on making my family suffer for some reason I still don't understand to this day.
In any case, while I did feel sad for people cause they died, ultimately it never really effected me. Like, people freakin' died, and I couldn't really drum up the sympathy other people felt for their families.
Hell, even when I would be outwardly vocal about anything related to it, ultimately it was all a show, a means for me to show people, 'Hey, I care about this thing, so don't lynch me for not actually giving a crap'.

can we direct the hate to the correct group this time?

ahh, what am i saying. this is the US of GUNS AND BURGERS AND BIGOTRY! we're just gonna keep believing some planes were hijacked despite architectural facts, footage, and logic.

edit: why can't people stop flooding my Facebook with flags and other shit?

because the event made our population significantly dumber. it was the intent.

Skurn did 9/11!

I would have to say I don't really care either, it's basically another terrorist event, even though it was bigger. Heck we should have a holiday for the wars that have happened, they cause a lot more deaths for both sides then just the terrorist attack.

there's more to it than that. there's footage of one of the buildings exploding before the plane even touches, there's the fact that a plane smashing into the top of a tall ass building wouldn't collapse the whole thing in seconds. and yeah.

this is why we have demolition teams that blow up buildings to make room for others. because ramming into something massive like a barbarian isn't gonna do the job cleanly.

(and also a president, not sure which, was once requests that a plan very similar to 9/11 be carried out. not sure what, but it involved sacrificing people. the president declined. now, picture bush, a huge war monger and war criminal, being presented with a plan just like it).

Daniel, there are clowns. 
I was sitting in a not particularly challenging computer-aided design class doing some sort of bullshoot. We had a TV in the room, so we got to see most of it happen in real time. I remember thinking, "Well, that's shitty. Maybe the US will finally take a hard look at its Middle East policy and take steps to deal with the root causes of this kind of thing."

Wow, did I get that one wrong.

15 years ago, most of the world loses its sense of security and, understandably, everyone loses their shit.

Now a gorilla no one knew dies and everyone loses their shit.
