haha, thanks for the rant

guess what, the people you're trying to reach dont visit ytmnd

Totally neccisary. Thank you for NOT being a total f*cking dumbass.

sure after 9/11 is hectic and some people are scared of there own shadow nowdays , what next humor sites are now a threat if so then what?

Well played, sir.

"sure after 9/11 is hectic and some people are scared of there own shadow nowdays , what next humor sites are now a threat if so then what?" Well, then we're terrorists. Looks like cyberman wasn't lying afterall :(

thank you

lol, your President and his goons are extremly happy right now no doubt. They have succeeded in scaring you all in order to gain more control haha

kick *ss and massachusetts sucks they are harboring idiotic people everyday

PREACH ON BROTHER! Also I notice how Americans just LOVE to shift blame towards others instead of accepting some f*cking responsibility (i.e. Columbine, 2004 Black outs, getting burnt by hot coffee, etc.)

*golf clap*

Boston never could take a joke, save for Pete Rose.

/rant

I concur

This is very inappropriate. Think of all the lives that could have been lost if these devices were actually bombs. I mean, we have to deal with terrorism everyday. America is the toughest country in the world to live in. Everytime I get on a bus I think to myself, "This is un-American." Yet, we are forced to because our gas prices have risen to levels that rival the half-price levels of gas in Europe. The terrorists are to blame. I, for one, hope for the day when our streets are as safe as those in Israel.

Korf 41, TAKE YOUR HEAD OUT OF YOUR ASS! LEDs that look like moonanites cannot be bombs; terrorists are not THAT bizarrely creative; they are minimalists. WE don't have to deal with terrorism every day, that's mostly our government's job (and they are pretty bad at it). America is still magnitudes safer to live in than Israel, as far as paramilitary and military threats, that being terrorist attacks against Jews and reckless attacks by the Israeli military that kills innocent Palestinians.

My thoughts exactly, although those dreadlocks should be a federal offence.

Also, I'd just like to remind everyone that our tiny little nation of 260 million people has been attacked AT LEAST twice by terrorists in the past 2 decades. This is obviously unacceptable and we should hold all Muslims responsible which entitles us as the Chosen People the right to eliminate the threat through reeducation of the true faith or by force. It's what God would want. We think. We can't get him on his cell at the moment, but we did some interpolation from the Bible and... well we're pretty sure.

Also, anyone who disagrees with me is either a heathen or a terrorist, so I'd watch what you say. Wouldn't want to have to get Patriot[ic] (Act) on you. And don't cry for the "innocent" Muslims. Jesus will be here before long and he'll deal with them. It's not like they have rights. They're not even Americans! The thought makes me laugh.

OMG that means anything could have been a bomb. I better isolate my stapler!!..They were lite brites that had been up 2 weeks prior. "America is the toughest country in the world to live in." Its getting that way due to commander dick weed and elmer fudd in office, not because of terrorist which have always been around and will always remain so.

Had me going with that first post of yours Korf41, my bad

einstein rly

Upvoted, because I care.

you sure went into detail, haha 5.

If you think you're safer in Israel than in America, you've got a serious disconnect from reality.

Well exxcuuse me, I didn't see his last two post till after the fact. Happy now Professor Sh*t Lips

+5 for true

"Go about your business. Watch your primetime TV." Yeah, complacency is always great advice. Also, Monday-morning quarterbacking is always an easy crowd-pleaser.

I think something like this happend over here (england) a while back, the bomb squad were called to blow up what turned out to be a pair of trainers in a shoebox

It's in the first post. The reason it was in the first post was to establish the disconnect from reality...

No bomb in history has had decorative lighting, AwesomeBob. Also, the terrorists we're dealing with don't plant bombs. Why would we ever worry about a bomb that has been PLANTED? Only people who want to get AWAY from the bomb would PLANT it. We worry about fundamentalist suicide bombers. If we see a bomb planted we can pretty much assume that it is an AMERICAN or at least a WESTERNER such as good ol' Teddy McShack o' Montana.

I agree completely. I'm all for keeping an eye out for specious devices. But there was no harm and no harm intended.

i definitely agree man.

It's "utmost", not "upmost", you C average American. No, really, great site! It be Tops!

Yeah, anything with decorative lighting couldn't possibly be a bomb. Most especially if it's a device with protruding wires running to an section covered in black tape and placed in a high traffic area. Of course, if Boston law enforcement weren't completely at fault, Turner Broadcasting wouldn't have agreed to pay all costs of the security scare and take out a full-page newspaper ads apologizing to Boston residents.

Free the boston two!!!! Down with bullsh*t fear mongering control freak governments!!

whats the youtube thing conference URL?

slow it down please!

Stop whining! +1 for awesome hair

COOKIE 4 U ^_^ If the devices were bombs think of all the cookies that would have been lost!

upmost?

I've seen alot of people say, "if those were bombs...something" If those truely were bombs, planted by some terrorists then this shows the kind of job the department of homeland security is doing. Boston would have been blown up weeks before anyone realized the devices were present... devices made of blinking LEDs in public places. Anyone who has every taken a highschool electronics votec class could now be a suspected terrorist... brb, fbi is here to detonate the christmas tree i havent taken down...

somebody set us up the bomb!

'70s haircuts awesome!

The media makes everyone ludicrously paranoid, then when the paranoia finally bubbles over and gets us to flip the f*ck out, they're there to report it, of course. BTW, typo on "hysteria"

Blue-staters are such pussies. We red-state bastards would have shot the signs up ourselves.

I think it was three years ago, a kid dropped a part of his science project out side of the school, and the bomb squad came in. That is not a joke. On a different note, I think the retards that phoned in thinking they were bombs should have to pay the money the city spent.

The longer I live, the more faith in humanity I lose.

http://youtube.com/watch?v=zx2ytr2Oyv4 press confricne thingy, lol

well done sir

that was the wussiest rant i've ever heard

yawn, motherf*cker. you're boring as sh*t I couldn't get past the fist 4 frames, you worthless piece of solidified gorilla sh*t, gtfo with your gay little story, save it for your little role-playing azn forum. I hope you never have kids.

agreed

Chill the f*ck out America. GJ

The company was forced to pay the money to the city because of the media coverage, that much is fairly obvious. Had the media instead addressed the story as "Boston Police Act Ignorantly In Response To Marketing Campaign" as it obviously should have been addressed then the company wouldn't have paid a dime and the city would be apologizing to its residents. However, because the government loves to fearmonger and Americans are retarded, they are forced to in order to save face.

I AM SO SICK OF DUMBASS LOSERS WHO DO NOTHING BUT SIT ON THEIR *SS AT HOME WATCHING CARTOONS AND YTMND GO ON AND ON ABOUT HOW THESE TWO DOUCHEASS MOTHERF*CKERS ARE THEIR IDOLS. THEY ARE NOT FUNNY. TALKING ABOUT 70s HAIRCUTS WAS SO UNFUNNY I YAWNED SO MUCH MY MOUTH ALMOST EXPLODED INTO THE UPMOST LARGE *SS EXPLOSION. OH AND BTW ATHF ISNT FUNNY EITHER.

I can kinda understand how people might be alarmed and the little panic could've started, that's fine. But don't f*ckin throw those guys in the brig, that's uncalled for, completely.

There are hundreds of thousands of objects in a city which contain wires and batteries. The REAL problem here is that Boston was the ONLY city out of 10 to react the way they did in a COMPLETELY irrational and ignorant manner. Also, the fact that they failed to assess the threat until TWO WEEKS after the devices were planted and proceed in acting the way they did makes them look EXTREMELY incapable of acting in a timely fashion and obviously they have no conception of "appropriate measures".

The press conference was as absurd as the media coverage. If they were to treat this situation as seriously as the media does they would be making a mockery of the process as much as the media does, and that would obviously be insulting to the two men involved. They were the ones who planted the devices IN BOSTON. Since the devices were all placed at roughly the same time there were probably 9 other twosomes that planted the devices in the other cities, yet they are responsible not for their actions...

amen

but for the REACTIONS to their actions? If they did something illegal, then they are as responsible as the people in the other cities, which is to say not at all. However, the fact that they are the only people who were arrested is absurd. Also, the possibility that someone is responsible for the absurdity of the reactions to an action rather than the actuality of the action itself is a terrible precedent to put into place.

One terrorist attack that killed 2,000 people out of 260 million in the last decade allows the government to impose police state like repeals of civil liberties? What a joke. The uneducated masses in this country who will believe anything they are told out of ignorance is a danger to the rest of us. People naturally have a fear of the unknown. Ignorance breeds fear. America breeds ignorance. That's a scary combination.

The worst part is that they address the devices as "HOAX DEVICES". How are they a HOAX? They do not AT ALL look like bombs. They have batteries, wires, and LEDs. That someone could mistake a circuit board with LEDs on it for a bomb yet carries around a cell phone or has ever used a TV remote is ridiculous. Had they been covered, nondescript boxes hidden in strategic locations rather than ATTENTION GRABBING objects placed in HIGHLY VISIBLE areas, I can see how this situation could arise. As it is... absurd.

that ownd

FAP FAP FAP

Also, people are not legally required to hold press conferences and it is NOT a crime (I guess I should repeat this since people are so retarded) it is NOT a crime to lie during or make a mockery of a press conference. The only thing to discuss is whether they were rightfully arrested. That is obviously not true. Now, if you want to talk about Turner's response... they apologized and paid a ridiculous sum of money merely because it was on tv. Had it not been, they would have fought the charges in court.

Nice Adult Swim parody. I'm fine with people reporting a wired device on a freeway support, but I think the BPD should have realized upon taking the thing down that it was harmless. Instead, they said that the things resembled IEDs (they were improvised devicecs, and I guess 2 out of 3 is good enough). And the media reporting this as a "hoax" when the only allegation that these things could be bombs came from paranoid cops is ridiculous. In a way, it shows how the security is still inefficient, though.

No terrorist will set his IED on a two week timer.

+1 because somebody actually made a slide show fast enough to keep up with me.... but who the f*ck do you think you are, CNN? Thanks for the news update, buddy...?

Agreed +5

wow holy tits two weeks? what a bunch of f*cking morons who don't pronounce their R's.

Security is plenty sufficient as there hasn't been a single incident in 5 years. You can never prevent the threat of a terrorist attack completely. Not even close. Anyone can buy the parts to make a bomb anywhere in the country and blow it up at any time. The easiest ones to stop are the ones that are planted, as was supposed in this case, because there is a time between when they are revealed and when they blow up. Suicide bombers, however, give no such opportunity. See: Israel.

Amen. (o^..^)-b

""It's clear the intent was to get attention by causing fear and unrest that there was a bomb in that location," Assistant Attorney General John Grossman said at their arraignment." GOOD LUCK PROVING THAT dumbass Attorney Generals. On the scale of "fear inducing objects" I place small LED devices depicting cartoon characters about dead last on the list. I'm more afraid of spray paint.

"The appearance of this device and its location are crucial," Grossman said. "This device looks like a bomb." Some in the gallery snickered. Outside the courthouse, Michael Rich, a lawyer for both of the men, said the description of a bomb-like device could be used for any electronic device. "If somebody had left a VCR on the ground it would have been a device with wires, electronic components and a power source," he said.

agreed in pretty much every respect. "America, chill the f*ck out." Damn straight.

A-f*ckin-men. Theres some in a few other cities, INCLUDING Las Vegas (where I live). If anywhere in America has to worry about terrorists, its Vegas. Theres a sign in plain veiw on the strip near the Luxor and nobody has freaked. Grow the f*ck up Boston!

Exactly what I've been saying since I heard about this crap.

youre awesome

"Paranoia is just another word for ignorance." -Hunter S. Thompson

qft

Boring, nothing new to say, not funny, long, sparse, it's spelled "hysteria".

5. It gets pll thinking. A bright lighted device was in place for two weeks before it came to the attention of the authorities. I wonder how long a bomb could go undetected. kinda scary if you think about it. but the truth of the matter is, terrorism is a tactic, not a nation-state. Not an Ideology. You can defeat a nation-state or an ideology can be proven false. A tactic can only be defended against, not defeated.

all of that aside, how many ytmnd users saw stickers with the moonites all over their cities? Lex, KY is covered by them

Needed to be said.

After 9-11 Everyone went batsh*t. I can't even listen to the news with all the Flags flapping in my ears.

You are a moron. And the hippies who are now incarcerated for placing the devices there deserve jail time. Simply because they're clearly filthy hippies.

i hate douche bag down voters who think its dumb to care about this but then bother enough themselves to tell us that

elyk, is your last name Cartman? Cause I could have sworn you're an obese irrationnal *ssh*le just now.

hell, I live in Boston. It was retarded what happened. I had seen one on a wall near an ally and thought it was cool! Goddamn, I'm moving to the suburbs.

I'm sorry to hear your delimma

also it wasn't big enough to be a very bomb

Frag your thesis, lolz?

f*cking awsome. the US has alot of problems. after seeing the way we treat our own country folk let alone other nations its no surprise people wanna atack us >.< i love America and i love being a American but this country is f*cking up on epic levels. welcome to controlled back stage communism (middle finger to the man)

rantmnd

well said

The problem here isn't America or the fear of terrorism, it's the city of Boston being greedy and wanting a lot of money from Turner. I'd 5 this if you weren't so darn critical of the wrong people.

Very well spoken and i agree with you whole-heartedly. Music was a great choice too. Thank you.

teksoqp

theaftermath911.ytmnd.com my ytmnd about 9/11 this boston case is a perfect example

also, c*cks

OH NOES HE'S GOT A BREADBOARD. BOMB!

5'd.

I agree 100%.

Oh yes, little LCD lights are the PERFECT cover for a bomb. If we saw an LCD light on some random building around here, we wouldn't think twice. Boston people are dumbasses, just check out their baseball team.

Touche sellsman

Sh*tty Short Film, d^_^b

We already no all of this dumbass

Much love to this, you pinned it right on the nose. How can people honestly mistake those for bombs? Idiots.

Korf41, chill the f*ck out. First you come on ranting here that all Muslims are evil, and then you start calling yourself one of the "chosen people." F*cking die in a ditch. I can't even begin to explain how mad you people f*cking make me. Your not the son of God. You seem to know so much about the Bible, yet you forget that Jesus is a forgiving person. Why the hell should we hold all Muslims for what only a few did back then? But then again, I'm sure your "God" would love the eradication of innocent people

i concur. people these days are too god damn paranoid of terrorism. terrorism is suppose to cause fear and panic. If people will no longer fear terrorism, it would be much less of a threat. If the goverment would censor the stupid media, maybe there would be less gullible people. Also could be a conspiracy about the goverment using people's fear of terrorism to their advantage.

Because if you're trying to hide a bomb somewhere it's a great idea to cover it in blinking, bright LEDs and put it in a place where thousands will see it.

mondo you bastard ! i wanted to make something about this cause i completly agree.

Agree. Nice hair.

Jesus christ, people are morons. "Oh noes! The cartoons are launching a terrorist attack! Quick, shoot randomly in all directions!!!1"

lol, nice comments, guys

your arguement has a flaw... it is ILLEGAL to do what they did. it is against the law, period. although im laughing with everyone, i do believe they should be prosecuted. mayhaps not to the extent of the law, but still, if they do something illegal and stupid (which i do find that to be) then they should take responsibility for it. as well as anyone they worked for who ok'd the project. im not talking jailtime, im talking a slap on the wrist. again, i still think its hillarious, but...

Googlebomb.

YTMND is not your soapbox.

... put yourself in the place of someone working for the MBTA who has no idea wtf a mooninite is. its a small electronic device with lights... of course it could look like a bomb. not everyone is an expert on a bomb... im guessing the vast majority of people who found these have no idea whats necissary to make a bomb. lost story short, clever, but its like illegal imigration... nothing wrong with the people who come here, but they know they are BREAKING THE LAW. btw 5d to be nice :P

well done I would give you a six no one has made a ytmnd info yet. I would still slow the frames down for the downvoters they can't read that fast... :D

OMG reporters are retarded. Seriously, listen to the sh*t they say. They make basic f*cking errors. Why is it none of them talk about tha absolute ridiculousness of those boards being considered bombs? How can any of you watch the news when they're that way? How can you trust anything you see on the news?

lol, america

Yes, anything can have a bomb it it. F*cking grains of sand might be granulized C4. ACCEPT THAT YOU CAN'T BE 100% SAFE AND GET OVER IT! Jesus how can any of you argue that what they did is wrong? I don't think I'll ever go to the US again.

Very good (if you know the music PM me). The news is so retarded,at first I heard that they were designed to look like bombs but when I saw it I was like WTF?I seriously hope we get over the 9/11 paranoia.As a person who is half arab,I would like to be able to move around without getting suspicious looks.

1d without reading more than 1 line of text

Done in an adult swim-like fashion, gotta love that

YTMND is not your soapbox.

bloodsworn lol

lol at people missing the extreme amounts of satire in my posts. lol at zorgzorg's hypocrisy. crying about a guy using ytmnd to cry. awesome. i've stopped using capital letters this time around. william: extreme ignorance on the part of the city is not an excuse to prosecute a person in excess of his crimes. he did the equivalent of littering or graffiti. he did not incite a panic as they claim. the city of boston incited panic due to their irrational paranoia.

also, c*cks

in order for the two guys or turner broadcasting to be prosecuted for the alerts and panic they will have to pass a law stating that all people who place objects in public with visible wiring and a power supply will be subject to arrest on charges of attempting to incite a riot. That will include all electronic appliances in windows and on exteriors along with a host of other things. streetlights placed near or under bridges or overpasses will all be taken down due to their bright lights and wiring.

Nice work.

YTMND is a good soapbox.

Well said, they should've investigated it more and not go and start a big panic over nothing. And Allthough I like Hunger Force, I don't like those Atarians. But you made my Fav of the day!! By the Way DTA!!

hyseteria*..

http://youtube.com/watch?v=fJkTNJ7BM9I for the press conference. And I totally agree.

NEDM

Considering that Bush nuked the towers himself for oil, why the f*ck are you paying any attention to what anyone is doing on the streets, when the terrorists are in the Whitehouse?

Good title. Definitely a rant, and not a very entertaining one. Also, it's not really topical anymore because theyve been released, right?

amen, brother or sister

nice use of brackets.

It's post-9/11.How many people have even heard of Aqua Teen anyway?

1 until you add "also c*cks"

I've mentioned this before elsewhere. I was once asked by SWAT to take cover because they needed to detonate a lawn lamp with wires sticking out of it that someone had stuffed in my neighbors mail box. This was pre 9/11. People have always fed on fear; that's why the local news is on like 5 times a day letting us all know who got maimed and murdered.

Love the Adult Swim bump style.

That's not a hair rant. I agree with everything you said though, too much f*cking paranoia, but the text flew by incredibly fast, might want to slow that down.

Thank you, sir. And thank you, few rational Americans.

5'd for great justice

They are gonna get off the planes in grand theft auto IV because the city looks like NY....WTFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF??!Q?!?!?!?Q??!?E?Y?!E?!

2nd!

that's what i love about rants. extremely funny, yet extremely true. GET UR HEAD OUT OF UR *SS AMERICA!!!

I wish Adult Swim would have ran something like this.

finally someone speaks out and tells everyone how f***ing stupid Boston was, thank you

Finding something to be terrified of is the only means some people have to feel significant. Pity them
