20 years since them slags smashed into the twin towers...

Who was the guy who had that tower seven song on YouTube?

Looking through the 991 songs list on Wikipedia

Monty Milne   America Rocks   Rock Stars Don't Eat Cookies   2001   Lyrics include: "In terrible days and horrible shocks; Always remember that America rocks; When the Enemy aims and the trigger cocks; Always remember that America rocks  h

"sometimes time heals... too much."

The ad itself is hilarious imo. It looks like it was made up for Curb Your Enthusiasm or something

when you've got jokes with 9/11 in them you can't lose!

Because they go down with everyone?

[Phoenix Lazarus]

Do you ever imagine what it would have been like to have been in one of the towers a floor or two beneath where the planes hit? You could just belt it down the stairs and away from fiery death. I bet it would have been just like Krypton Factor. What a rush.

Imagine blazing fuel leaking from the plane and pursuing them downstairs.  I bet three-minute miles were run that day.

[Milo]

My main memory of the day is being 19 and working in a call centre and I was absolutely over the moon when they announced we could go home for the rest of the day.

[Twit 2]

Was the call centre in the twin towers?

[Uncle TechTip]

Those women who won a nightclub Halloween fancy dress competition dressed as 9/11

Rosie's nightclub in Chester, so proud. It was widely condemned but I still thinks it's hilarious. Look at it, in some comedy show it would be a classic moment. They went, dressed as 9/11.

[Mister Six]

Because they go down with everyone?

Outstanding. I mean that.

[FredNurke]

Could also work with the fancy dress picture.

[Goldentony]

I dont know what 911 is

[Blumf]

I dont know what 911 is

A boy band.

[Goldentony]

and the bald one clearly did it

To right. Shits on escape rooms.

[idunnosomename]

Had the pleasure of meeting the World Trade Centre towers at a charity do once. They were surprisingly down to earth, and VERY funny.

[Voltan (Man of Steel)]

Oh Porsche! What a terrible name for a car. Reminds me of that tragedy.

Wow. Just going into a shop and buying 19 box cutters is brave

20 years ago tomorrow I found out through talking to a couple of clients that other people had TVs in their offices. WTF, that's next level cushy. We had a radio, and the internet, which didn't really play videos in those days and which went down shortly after the second tower did.

[imitationleather]

I'm always amazed by how shit the offices inside looked.





If I worked there I would've jumped out of the window long before 9/11!

[bgmnts]

The six year old girl working there looked miserable.

I'm always the same on bring your dad to work day.

[Video Game Fan 2000]

They hated our liminal spaces.

I had a three week secondment in Manhattan and my office was within 2 blocks of the WTC and I thought "quids in here ferris!" but it was literally the bleakest fucking space I've ever been in.

I think it was furnished the same as those photos (only reason I remember it was because it looked exactly like those photos which triggered a horrible remembering) except this was like 15 years later and no one had bothered to update it. Manila cubicles out the wazoo, a complete shithole.

[H-O-W-L]

Those look like the kind of offices where Selected Ambient Works Volume II is always quietly playing in your head.

[Sebastian Cobb]

Bleak as they are I'd prefer the more private boxes compared to the small partitions you get in UK offices with even less privacy, or bench desks, as you get in call-centres.

[Ferris]

Having pissed away my life in both, I far prefer open plan offices to cubicles (apart from the ~3 months I had my own little office and I could close the door and drink whiskey and play snake on Firefox).

[chveik]

there would've been a mass shooting in there anyway

[Butchers Blind]

Probably a good thing they knocked those towers down then.
