Re: 9/11 is tomorrow what do you remember about that day and why is it still so powerful? [Re: DeadHearts]
    #18822940 - 09/10/13 11:04 AM (10 years, 4 months ago)

Anyway back to the question in the thread title -- it was a surreal couple of weeks after it went down. I was in class at the time. It was pretty early. My teacher's cell started blowing the fuck up and she went outside and took the call and didn't return for like 30 minutes. Then she came back in and told us that the entire school was dismissed due to the WTC towers getting attacked. The gravity of the situation didn't really hit me until I got to my car and started driving home -- and every single radio station across the dial was talking about what just happened. Every single one.

Then I got home and saw the video. It was unbelievable seeing it unfold live like that.

And the next two weeks were unlike any two weeks I've seen in my life. The news coverage was 24 hours a day for 2 full weeks. Every fucking channel. I would stay up til like 4 in the morn just getting high and watching the coverage. They halted everything, including the NFL. All games were canceled. You know it's huge when they're freaking canceling NFL games. And I'll never forget the moment where FINALLY when I turned on the TV (2 weeks later) there was some actual television on other than 9/11 coverage. It was a Seinfeld marathon.

I must have watched 10 episodes in a row. I was just so fucking happy to get my mind off the WTC.

So how do you feel now that your government has used it as a catalyst for abuse and surveillance? A
ten year war?

9/11 didn't make me feel any more vulnerable than before. It's a waste of time spending your entire day worrying about the absolutely minuscule chance you're going to be blown up in a terrorist attack. The anthrax attacks were a different story - a combination of not knowing the true extent and the serious potential harm a bio attack poses compared to a few pansy-assed bombs or hijacked planes.

I remember getting out of school early, I imagine when the plane was brought down in PA they were just like "fuck this, send em home". My older brother was at the bus stop on his bike which was weird because he was in high school and usually got out after us. He told me the Pentagon got hit by an airplane, I remember asking what the Pentagon was. Part of me kind of wishes I was a little older so I could've understood all the shit that was going down but I was just happy to get out of school early.

Imagine how intense it was if you were just say in a convenience store or something watching a tiny TV with a crowd of strangers? That's how my Dad saw it. That would've been crazy.

ity was my first dfay of grade 7, i sorta overheard 2 teachers talking about outside the classroom, but didnt realize what they were talking about, it sorta sounded like they were talking about vandalism or something

than the next class the teacher opened with this is a very important day in history, i thought it was going to be some bullshit about being the first day in class, then she told us what happend

when i went home for lunch my mom was watching on the tv and i saw the replay of towers getting hit

Yeah totally. Imagine running from that giant cloud of dust down the streets of NYC, as it slowly catches up no matter what you do. Total anarchy.

I was trying to find that video of the people that were running from it and ducked off into a store and beat the cloud by like seconds. Then they put the camera towards the window and it just went black. It was eerie.

Brilliant logic. Paper and plastic IN THE PLANE did not survive the blast that brought down a fucking

Now paper from the building and surrounding floor around the impact spot was tossed about sure.




The logic appears to be beyond you.

As are physics.

Bodies survived. Why couldn't paper?

Some workers found bodies strapped to airplane seats and discovered the body of a flight attendant with her hands bound, suggesting the hijackers might have used plastic handcuffs.

You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity by legislating the wealthy out of prosperity. What one person receives without working for another person must work for without receiving. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for that my dear friend is the beginning of the end of any nation. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it. ~ Adrian Rogers

No his comment about him having no emotional connection to 911 because he personally didn't know anyone who died. As long as Sheekle didn't know anyone who died I'm cool....:crankey:

Shieeeeeet that would've been so intense. I get amped up a bit thinking about it. Also kind of forgot how everyone looked kind of like zombies or something like that after the dust cloud settled and they were all chalked up walking around. Pretty fucking nuts.

No shit man i got nothing to show for the past year at all.

AS to the thread question I hardly remember 9/11 I was in first grade when it happened and all I thought it was, was an airplane crash. had no idea why that seemed like such a big deal, I remember seeing it on the news before I left for school and wondering why the hell people where talking about it still when I got back. I also didn't know about the plane crashing into the pentagon until years later.
