it was a conspiracy. If you look closely it's clearly a controlled demolition of the planes, and the explosions start before the buildings hit them. learn the truth!

I like how about 45 minutes ago you were at -2, and now +9.

[–]pokie6 92 points93 points ago*

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

The difference between 9 and -2 is 11.

e: also 45 minutes... Hm. 4+5=9!

Ask if "Mr. Jass" is there.

The gif is at the :58 so no one is discouraged by the almost 10 minute video although I highly recommend watching the entire thing.

I didn't think a suicide bomber clown could bring joy to my heart. I was wrong. sniff

Nice one.

No one was prepared for terrorists flying two buildings into the sides of planes.
No one was killed, but a lot of people were surprised.

Wait, why did I get downvoted and you didn't? We both cracked roughly the same joke. Makes no sense.

Most comments on Reddit are sarcastic! The fucking OP is satire! We're in a forum called "WTF"! What?! What.

Facepalm.

[–]jaydeejj 0 points1 point ago

Yeah but as someone who has been a redditor for at least 10 months you should know that Reddit is serious business to some.

This reminds me of this time I was flamed out of r/politics for "trolling".

What really happened was that I made some hyperbolic joke about how I couldn't imagine such a small town as 100 or fewer inhabitants in America. Two dozen other users read it literally and went out of their way to tell me what a fucking idiot I am. When I tried to explain that I was kidding, they accused me of being facetious. This was before I realized what a terrible place r/politics is.

Now try pulling that shit in r/gaming and realize the scope of stupidity that exists out there. For an encore, try writing something blatantly sarcastic on youtube and watch the shitstorm brew up.

Really, after seeing some youtube comments, I no longer question why a god, or aliens or any other entity has given our race a pass. WE ARE SIMPLY BUTTFUCK STUPID.

In my experience, r/gaming is one of the friendlier places around here. Just last night I made a post asking for suggestions for games to pass the time with. Not one person got pissy or told me to Google it or anything.

[–]wd0511 0 points1 point ago

Try mentioning something that goes against the hive mentality there and you'll see the other side of r/gaming.

You can respect something and still make jokes about it. Humor is a way deal with bad things (Comedy = Tragedy + Time). Just because you don't find it funny doesn't mean it isn't funny.

Making a 9/11 joke would've been inappropriate ten years ago, but today is just a day that happens to be ten years after something happened. Today only has any significance to those who give it significance. It's just as appropriate or inappropriate to make a 9/11 joke today than it is any other day. If anything it should be expected today in the same way that all the tributes and services are expected.

But we do make fun of the perpetrators. Jon Stuart had a good time of it when Osama was killed.

I'm pretty sure the way in which a loved one dies unexpectedly doesn't matter. My friend got hit by a car a few months ago, would I be more devastated if he was a victim of a terrorist attack? Not at all. In 10 years am I going to be a dick to anyone who makes a funny video involving somebody getting hit by a car? Nope.

If you're offended by 9/11 humor, today was not the day to go online. Anyone could have told you that every social media site would be flooded with it. People aren't going to restrain themselves for the tiny minority of people directly affected ten years ago.

So you're a dick, in the same way as someone who complains about the content of a TV show that has a "not suitable for all audiences" warning in the beginning.

People never make jokes about the Holocaust, slavery, or gay people. Wait they do. Lighten up.

[–]militant 4 points5 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

20% of Americans knew someone who was killed or injured that day, according to various stats I've seen.

What I think makes 9/11 easier to make jokes about is the joke our government, economy, and foreign policy have become, as well as our reputation around the world, as a result of our reaction to the attack.

Rofl america has just as much innocent blood on their hands as well, unless you are directly related to the victims on 9/11 you should stop giving a shit to.
