Yup this is an oldie. Of course no one was on the observation deck that morning since it hadn't opened yet. I do believe some of the staff of the businesses on the observation floor were already there and died. I seem to recall hearing a Sabaro's employee died (there were a few NYC style eateries on the observation floor.)

Incredible core strength. All of it.

The shitty writing is also hurting Netflix viewership. As is cancelling shows that are well written and have a fanbase just because you have to pay the actors and staff more after 3 seasons.

No planes in this one. In fact, you have to have lived through Duhbya's presidency or be very knowledgable of it to understand the humor this subtle 20-oughts meme.

From around 2007

Nah. We now have videographic evidence of who was in control of 9/11

Looks about right. Also spotted this antique of a 9/11 meme while there.

In 2000 users on airliner's message board discussed what would happen if an airliner crashed into the World Trade Center.

You can still view the discussion here.

IIRC the FBI did investigate and determined no foul play, nor were any of the terrorist involved in this post in any way. Just a coincidence.

Heres some internet history for the 25th anniversary of 9/11. One of the earliest memes posted online about the attack. Often called "9/11 what if they'd missed" or "9/11 the happy ending."

There's were other versions of it I remember that had the towers bending in multiple directions as other planes attempt to fly into them but they seem to be lost media, aka the Matrix bullet dodging trope.

It was a bit harder to find than I'd assume it'd be. Someone had saved it on youtube and I've converted it to gif for posterities sake. The original was probably in Flash which is why it's so difficult to find these days.

A bit of internet history for the 25th anniversary of 9/11.

This is one of the very first memes/jokes about September 11th to become popular online. Often called "9/11 what if they'd missed" or "9/11 the happy ending."

There's another version of it in which the towers bend multiple directions as other planes attempt to fly into them but it seems to be lost media, aka the Matrix bullet dodging trope.

I actually had to go hunting for it and came across this version which is the original. Someone had saved it on youtube and I've converted it to gif for posterities sake.

A few years back someone posted a photo they claimed was Elon Musk trying to roll a doober while attending a babyfur meetup.

We never got a confirmation from Elon about it but it sure does look like him.

Remember that time someone posted an old photo of a dude they claimed was Elon Musk trying to roll a joint at a babyfur meetup?

I remember.
