I do love the Brtish sometimes. Well, most of the time, actually, but that's beside the point. London gets bombed, and we all go "Bollocks, the tube'll be shut again. Lets go down the pub." Kinda makes you wonder what would have happened in New York if they had the same mentality as us.
"Oh my god, someone just flew planes into the World Trade Centre! But the explosions were pretty, and I grabbed a bit of rubble after it fell for a souvenir!"
Quotes! Best quote so far: "They did their worst, and they managed to disrupt our transport network and get fatalities in the low double figures. That happens on a fairly regular basis anyway, you twits. What's your next trick - a fiendish weather control device which makes it rain on a bank holiday weekend?"
Scrap that, Best quote yet, from
metaquotes: "Al Qaeda say: 'Britain is now burning with fear, terror and panic in its northern, southern, eastern, and western quarters.' Bitch, please. Osama, you live in a fucking cave. You're like an evil Batman or something. No wonder you have a thing for blowing up commuters, because you will never commute because you live in a cave. You see transport, and you are filled with rage, because you? Live in a cave. You could try forming a political wing to... oh, wait, you can't because YOU LIVE IN A CAVE. Twat.
The BBC paused news coverage to show *Eastenders*. That'd be the nationwide fear, terror and panic, then."
ETA: Thanks to
kittiy, I am now having to fight the urge to go into London and steal a bit of the Bus.
