is anybody else shocked that it turned out he was alive in the first place? thought the consensus was that he'd probably died of kidney failure years ago anyway.
― http://i56.tinypic.com/xnsu1g.gif (max arrrrrgh), Monday, 2 May 2011 12:47 (fifteen years ago)
Was that the consensus? Really? Tbh, the way they found him alive and well, not in a cave but in a house with facilities etc doesn't seem that surprising.

I randomly googled 'Osama Bin Laden' before I went to bed last night, just to see if they were any closer to finding him. I wake up this morning and he's dead. Biggest WTF moment ever.

Well, that was 2002, but point take. I don't know, personally I'm not at all surprised that he had relatively quite good conditions and medical aid probably. The man had made some friends for life, surely.

I think it's great that they got him, but it's gonna be hard to forget Geraldo's breaking news report on this in which he started laughing hysterically, could not form a single coherant sentence, and referred to Osama as "Obama" a couple times; I've never seen a guy get a bigger newsboner
― frogbs, Monday, 2 May 2011 13:06 (fifteen years ago)
I bored some friends at length on bin Laden's likely death one evening back in 2004, next morning I wake up and he'd issued the tape condemning Bush & Kerry

I keep seeing people snickering about Fox News' spelling of "Usama". They've been spelling it that way for years, though. I don't know why.
― President Keyes, Monday, 2 May 2011 13:26 (fifteen years ago)
probably to keep their fat-fingered interns from typing "Obama" by mistake

tbh I remember it spelled "Usama" when I first heard the name in the Clinton years.
