Twixperiment 01: Nine Eleven
I’m often fascinated by the replies I receive on Twitter. Sometimes they’re ironic, often they’re hilariously sarcastic and occasionally they’re downright poetic. As such, I thought I’d throw out a topic, adjective, verb, whatever, and see how people reply. Today, because it permeated the airwaves with a nauseatingly thick vibe, I twittered “911″ and received this in return:
crc0427: we have forgotten what it means to be American
Pir4cy: When I think of 911 I think.. AMERICA FUCK YEAH WHATCHA GOING TO DO WHEN WE COME FOR YOU NOW…
Doomguy13: We got through it. We remembered the fallen. I believe we did our part. I just feel so bad for the family’s that lost mom and dads
hydraMIRAGE: Pain. Shock. Disbelief. I’m only 10 minutes from the city. My University was evacuated. I watched both towers fall
tr1gun: i think 911 is a good choice for an emergency number, though i do think 111 would be easier to remember.
giggleloop: 7 yrs ago, @ 8am husband woke me up to tell me a plane had hit the WTC. We watched CNN from then til I had to go to work @ 2pm.
Murphy1d: Sad thing is I moved a project deadline off of 9/11 just because the day seemed like bad luck
vinceruth: 9/11 is a day I saw too much and made me realize I didn’t “live” enough-ultimately getting me to change the way I was living
DominickEvans: 9/11 hasn’t taught us much of anything, except when in doubt, attack a country that had nothing to do with the attacks!
Suhaila: that was the topic? Man i totally forgot what day it was….i suppose that means i did my part to not let terrorists win.
Beatsmith: 911… Unneeded preventable destruction and death.
TheCroft: was told I could go home then. We didn’t have any customers anyway. Very uneventful.
mgrovesensation: Doesn’t Guliani get royalties whenever someone says that?
rachiebachie: quiet skies. Loud hearts.
A_lexj: Surprise ButtSecks!!!
