"That is not a hair question."
"That is also not a hair question."
These guys are kind of funny.
Uh oh... my LAPTOP has a circuit board... and a BATTERY!
Argggghhhh!!!
Quit using 9/11 to cover your gullibility.
I agree. I bet these guys thought that if these things got a rise out of anybody it would be because the character has flipping the bird, not because somebody would take them for bombs. Boston and the media probably gave them more for their marketing dollar than they could have ever dreamed for.
You said it best. There was plenty of blame to go around but what do you think would have happened if these things were planted at the Super Bowl...
LOL! This clip is pure comedy gold.
But this reaction didn't happen in other cities over the past few weeks...
And yet nine other cities managed to survive for three weeks without hitting the klaxons and looking like buffoons.
A couple of typical left-media conformists reveal their true priorities. Millions of these idiots glorify the terrorist Che Guevara, and therefore advance his murderous cause, simply because they dig his hair. These creatures are not human beings.
Until yesterday afternoon I didn't know there were Lite Brite movie handbills. OKAY!
People would think it was a promotional and maybe steal them? Stadiums are swept before games so if it were to happen they would be found before the fans were even allowed in.
Please speak to your case worker about upping your meds.
Boston's reputation as a city of morons remains strong! :-)
Non-sequitar. What does the benignness of a sneaker have to do with my (granted) Spock-like intelligence?
"I watched it - they had it on the local affiliate. These two are a couple of morons. Generation X slackers, probably never worked an honest day in their life."
This is our future.
(Shudders)
Wait where are we? 7/11? Motel 6? How can you be in a date?
It is apparent quite a few 'conservatives' need to face the fact that marketing is changing. The Fuller Brush man isn't coming to your door calmly in a tie. The new marketing is in your face, it has to catch your eye. A study was released awhile back that stated the average person sees twice as many ads as he did 30 years ago. And because of that, you've got to catch the consumer's eye. It's the same idea as posting orange colored flyers. It's meant to catch your eye The market this was aimed at probably knew what it was. And probably would have looked for more information on it.
By your standard unless everyone knows what a product is and does, it shouldn't be marketed in public for fear of offending or scaring the other parts of the market. I don't know what half the crap is I see ads for. I've seen flashing signs, scrolling signs, even some signs in public that would give an epileptic seizures (very fast flashing bright lights). Some in expected places, some not. But damn my first thought is not to call the police and report a possible terrorist threat
It's the greatest generation... of idiots.
Before seeing this, I was sympathetic to these dopes.
Oh my God, you have NO CLUE what their politics are. Are you one of those who sent the family down to the bomb shelter when this broke on the news yesterday???
I am not the one obliviously discussing hair styles while standing accused of disrupting an entire city.
Humanity is defined by reason and the ability to process reality. Guevara as hair-hero does not meet this criterion, and niether do these two slackers.
FYI....from your haven in NC this looks like a big laugh.But we here in Massachusetts are more than a bit skittish about such matters because 1)two of the four planes involved in 9/11 originated here and 2)largely as a result of point #1,Massachusetts,along with NY,NJ,CT and CA suffered the large majority of the casualties of 9/11.
If I'm a jihadist I know what I'm using for my next bomb casing.
