Plot Twist - Pipe Bomb
DicksmackMcgee
Some men just want to watch the world burn. Others have shit to do.

Seems like the main quest was still completed.

What weould Ragnarros the fire lord say to executus?
88wut
His delivery job is his main quest.

When there's some crazy shit going on but you have a quota to fill so you don't give a fuck

Dedication!

I always feel terrible laughing at 9/11 jokes but God they can be funny
FatThor89
I'm level 46 in skyrim and I've done 6 main quests. I don't think I'll do my seventh until 60.

Not like he could really do anything but stand around watching. He just elected to be productive.
eightbitrevolt
this is front page material.
welcomestranger
Well, it wasn't going to deliver itself.
Glaynus
Thats kinda fucked up
He'd get fired if he didn't continue.
zarkingphoton
That probably wasn't too bad of a day for him. All the people staying home watching the news probably cleared up traffic. Got home early.

I understand the joke, but I'm not sure this is appropriate.
GlitterInTheDarkNearTheTannhauserGate
Have you never seen any 911 jokes on imgur?
I don't think those are appropriate either. I'm a 9/11 survivor, I apologize if I seem a little touchy about the subject.

Can confirm. That industry has huge expectations to keep going ... No matter what.

Few years back my mom ended up in the hospital & they had to put in a pacemaker ASAP. My dad called while I was on a job site...
He said I should still finish the job, then come home after. It felt so cold, but at the same time, only I could do the job & I gots rent
Ultimately, she was already in surgery so leaving wouldn't make a difference. But still, priorities!
TripUpStairs
If you're 27, I don't get how you can joke about this.
icookfoodandfightfire
cause it can be funny? Finding humor in dark scenarios is a major step in moving past something regardless of how terrible it is
TheGirlInTheFireplace
I'm 27 and this is hilarious. If you can't laugh then guess what? You're still scared. That day is still affecting you. And that is what the
terrorists who did this WANT. Do laugh. Chuckle! Or just shut the fuck up. Because I am laughing at this. And that means WE won.
SherMattLockSmith
Tragedy + time = comedy.
LitteralyHitler
That would mean comedy - time = tragedy. Maybe all Amy Schumer needs is time.
highevolutionary
True that.
Pacifistic
Gonna have to cash in a wat voucher here because...wat?
op has another post that says they are 27. That's old enough to remember the tragedy of 9/11. I just don't get why people meme about it.
myusernameismyrealname
i wasnt around during WW2, i think im gonna start making more holocaust jokes. thanks for the inspiration!
Oh man. That wasn't my point at all. Sorry if I came across as "it only matters if it happened during your life".
too late, ive already emailed all my friends and family puns about Auschwitz and memes of Hitler speeches. and its all your fault!

To be fair asking for access to Spectre intel without giving a good reason is shady as shit.

I hooked up with Miranda in Me2 and no one would hook up with me in Me3

never forget 911

I'd hope not... it's your phone number for Police after all!
JJSparx
Wow, people still touchy over this. How long do we have to wait until everyone's over it? 20 years, 50, 100? Move the fuck on people.
While you could have worded that slightly better I do tend to agree. If you can't laugh about it then the terrorists won.
I'm pretty blunt at times and I was genuinely surprised that people are still touchy over such a tame joke from the original post.
I've heard far, far worse than this regarding 9/11. I guess the further away you are, the less it affects you (I'm in the UK).
It depends on the concept of the joke. If the joke had made fun of the ones who died, say for example the famous picture of someone jumping
from the higher floors, and had captioned it something mean, that would not be too funny. But this is an innocent joke. It in no way makes
LapisLazuli94
Dont be that cunt.
I'd have to know who "that cunt" is before I try to be them. This isn't even an offensive joke! GET OVER IT, MOVE ON OR IGNORE!
Im not sure i get this whole 'i dont care if youre offended/upset, just ignore' shite. The other option is of course you be a nice/..
Like you're being nice by implying I'm a cunt. Yeah, good one. I haven't said anything offensive, not rubbing it in, just saying move on.
I didnt imply you were a cunt, i said dont be that cunt, ie stopping you veering towards the cunt mentality outlined above. Good day :)
..respectful person and just chosen not to provoke raw emotions.
If this is about "provoking raw emotions" then I suggest you call the OP a cunt. They're the ones stirring the pot.
*choosing
RoyFuckingMustang
Still scrolling, but I haven't seen a single person offended by this yet. Certainly not enough to rant angrily about it.
Pleanty of people commenting on it's too soon, I can't laugh about this yet. I haven't made it up, what would be the point?
iamthisguy247
I don't think anyone fully appreciated how serious this was until the first tower collapsed.
Ninjainslippers
I think the people in the buildings did.
True but depending on where in the building they were they may have thought they could evacuate without concern.
OOroks
I'm sure the people inside did.

Last podcast on the left did a good job on this subject

Plot twist the mailman is a Alien lizard nazi chaos wizard serial killer.
Nikagor
When the first plane hit I just came home, was going to play some games and just thought "meh just a bad accident", before it unfolded..
moopuss
This is why I love seeing old footage of 9/11. It's fascinating how people react when the 2nd plane arrives.
Candyman216
They only realized half of the seriousness of it at that point
TahSpah
I would agree that people thought it was an accident when the first plane hit but when the second hit, which was well before the first 1/2
Jikai1966
That's a really odd place to break off your sentence. I like it.
Collapsed, people took it pretty damn seriously.
Well I just mean, he probably didn't feel any sense of personal emergency that would stop him from doing his job, until the collapse.
whatupmyknitters
well yeah, obviously not an accident at that point

yeah, planes hitting skyscrapers in NYC wasnt exactly common. But had happened enough that people thought it was accidental at first
....when else did that happen?
dangerkitty
There have been a few times when small planes have flown into towers. This is actually what I thought when I heard the news.
Counterfit
Same here. Beginning of French class, teacher said "A plane has flown into one of the WTC towers" I figured it was like the B25. I was wrong
The Empire State buildings been hit a few times and i believe the WTC was hit once or twice
carolousrex
The Empire State Building got hit by a B25 in 1945 dense fog was the culprit

Plus a bombing in the parking garage underground in 91, I believe.

RanchoCucamonga
We've let them win (bit by bit). We gave up our privacy out of fear. We're afraid of others now. Free media is self censored out of fear.
CultofCedar
I mean as far as I know my dads attitude didn't change. He worked a few blocks away and once they allowed him back he went to work1/
He now works in the new tower 7 iirc but they don't allow visitors like they used to when he worked in his old building
RandomThingiesHere
Years later, sure. But about 3000 people were killed, more than double that were wounded, I don't believe we should have just let it go
Mourn, but don't give them what they wanted: fear. The perfect example of which is the security theatre in airports now.
(not trying to take a stance on the actions taken by the US govt, just that such a thing should never be brushed off so quickly)
BillyMaysHereWithOxiClean
I think there's a difference between pretending it didn't happen and acknowledging it yet moving on in spite of it.
There is. But in just the days or weeks immediately following? That's too soon.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm fairly certain the 9/11 attacks happened over a decade ago, not a few weeks ago.
Regardless, who made you the authority on when it's okay to make jokes? Why are some ways of coping okay and others aren't?
