Some Maidenfans won't be able to remember the World Trade Centre attacks.

As we discussed in the chat the other week. I was six, don't remember it at all. Don't even remember finding out about it, I feel as though I've just always known.

Aftermath in the sense of the rubble at Ground Zero?

There are three things that come to mind as a bit sensationalist in the sense you mean: There was high altitude footage of the crash site at Shanksville, although it was hard to make out anything other than the general sense of aircraft debris. There was a picture of a woman printed in numerous publications who was walking through a corridor inside the burning WTC covered in ash and dust, which I felt took it a bit too far. But that woman wasn't dead, and was in fact interviewed weeks later. And there were photos of empty body bags set out next to each other for the salvage operations. But that's about it. All the pictures from Ground Zero I remember were taken either from such high altitudes that you wouldn't see any dead bodies there, or focused on the salvage teams amidst pretty much indistinguishable grey rubble. Similar to the Pentagon site, really.

I didn't manage to find the entire video but the parts that I did see are very disturbing. Looks almost like video game footage.

They showed parts of it on the national TV channel and I thought the same, it looks like one of those "FPS in real life" videos you'd see on Youtube.

No, crisps are generally flatter.

Generally flatter? They're a totally different thing.

I misread that. I knew that ''potato chips'' were called ''crisps''. I didn't know they used the word ''fries'' though. I learned all of this from Top Gear though.

Nobody really refers to crisps as "potato chips" or "potato" anything; they're just crisps. This covers crisps not made of potato too like Wotsits & all that.

CHIPS:

FRIES:

CRISPS:

FUCKING TOUCH-&-GO:

Oh, and there were no dead bodies on the BBC coverage of 9/11 (that I recall).

This helps. Good job Cried.

Any time, Tool Aficionado Collin.

It’s disturbing seeing potato pictures between posts about dead people..

Welcome to Maidenfans, buddy.

Wotsists are not made of potato? Mind = blown. I have a craving for them now though.

I just added that for clarity, in case folks thought that a Brit saying "crisps" could only be referring to potato-based foodstuffs.

We do have a lot of fancy non-potato based crisps available now. Beetroot, parsnip, carrot and even apple.

 

[The Flash]

Those pictures made me extremely hungry.

I haven't had crisps in ages. I really should indulge myself from time to time instead of avoiding them forever.

 

[Brigantium]

Wotsits are corn things. I think Monster Munch are too

 

[Black Wizard]

There are also chick pea based crisps available in the UK now, called Hippeas.

Joakim Broden has just posted on the FB Sabaton Memes Community. At least I think it's the real Joakim. Someone posted a vid of him joining in a karaoke version of Barbie Girl.

I think it's a private group

Cried knows what crisps are made of & doesn't care about Sabaton.

 

[Brigantium]

He's not really singing, either, he just did the Ken voice a couple of times and left a big gaggle of drunk girls singing

I managed to find a page of the same name, but can't you just screenshot what Joakim posted?
