Fucked up, yet still funny

[Jaged]

[Heavygain]

Yeah not nearly enough time has passed for me to laugh at that. Quite the contrary actually.

[Hamma]

Nope.. Not Funny at all.

[Giovanni]

As much as I hate saying it... you fucked up there buddy...

I don't like the U.S much... hell I don't like the fact that they're not over it after 5 years... I hate the War in Iraq... still doesn't make the event funny. Aids thought... (southpark flashback)

Appearently two of the tallest buildings in the world disappearing with a few thousand people in them leaves quite the impression. The nerve of us clinging to it.

We really do have some gall don't we.

I just hate that it comes up every time there's a debate...

"Apparently there's alot of mad cow..."

*interupts the first speaker*
"WELL THE WTC AND 9/11!"

[Infernus]

Yeah. Well thats because politicians and most idiots misuse things.

What you said is that we haven't gotten over it. Which is something different.

Touch�, I have the tendency to do that sorry. I should elaborate more.

I really meant the whole fact that it ALWAYS comes up... I could be talking about how I fucked a girl and all of a sudden some random redneck will come up to me and say: "THINK OF THE PEOPLE WHO WERE IN 9/11!!!!!!!!"

Get my drift?

[Infernus]

Yeah I do. And to be fair, I hate that shit to. A lot of people do.

[LimpBIT]

yea....thats not the least bit funny. I had an "acquaintance" who died in the twin towers.

Agreed.

[Ghryphen]

It took me a while to even get it. How many people played Starfox? 7?

[Giovanni]

I played it... doesn't make it any funnier...

Curiously, I was on top of the towers, 1 month and 1 day before 9/11, and as many tourists there, I was filming, got the day-time to night-time breathtaking views... I was filming for more than half an hour when I told myself: "Stop filming, you've already filmed enough, and when you get back to New York the next time, the Towers will still be there!".

When I returned in 2002, I was the one facing a camera, after me and my dad conceded to be interviewed by a german tv-crew about "Ground Zero" that was desperate to get a statement of anybody who would be there talking german (they must have overheard us...).

At 9/11 itself I was sitting in front of my PC as I got an SMS from a swiss friend of mine who also is a pilot saying that I should turn on the TV because the WTC was on fire. At first I thought it was pure bullshit, because that simply couldn't be happening. After a while curiosity got the best of me and I went to the living room and put on CNN, just in time to see the aircraft get the second tower... I couldn't believe myself. I stayed in front of the TV for the rest of the day, and I must say, I felt myself falling those 400 meters when the towers dropped... It's an experience I'll never forget. And although I'm half german and half portuguese, I must say, all the footage from the towers and of the towers (during that first trip I also visited the Empire State Building of course and filmed the Towers from it) are some of my most cherished filming that I've done from all my life.

It will always remind me of how unique moments can be.

Meh, mildly amusing, I was too far away from the towers when it happend, and don't know anyone who was there. No one really even mentions it down here.
