9/11: Forbidden Thoughts

Seems as good a place as any to post this from Chris Korda, the transgendered founder of the Church of Euthanasia:

The forbidden thought here being I couldnt stop thinking about it and wanted to keep listening to it. It made me feel weird.

I listened to this audio just now out of curiosity and it positively terrified me....

Theres something visceral in his screams that are just ... I cant.

i almost got into a fight at a cuban restaurant on the night of 9/11 when some kids were laughing at the falling man and saying "who's so stupid they jump out of a building"
fwiw, i was downtown and watched the second tower go down from west 4th and 7th ave. i have some stories but so does everyone.

Pretty sure I saw 9/11: Forbidden Thoughts among the erotic kindle novels listed on Amazon

heh heh 'twin towers' heh

is there a real time ILX 9/11 thread? i remember reading through the something awful one and finding it interesting

yeah, there were a couple:

v strange and eerie to read these now

i tried rereading some of the election night 2016 thread a while back and had to stop because it was giving me a mild panic attack

I went back to the very top of the Onion thread and realized it was started by Ned the week after 9/11.

wow, disturbing stuff. i also re-read the 2016 election thread... i don't think many nights are as etched into my memory as that one unfortunately. probably because i was 12 or 13 for 9/11?

Weird timing, I re-read this thread over the weekend

Ilx is watching you

The weirdest ones are the 2008 primary threads, hard to wrap my head around that being 10 years ago

My life held such promise (j/k it didn't)

I started looking at those threads and it's too fucking traumatic. What a horrible, nightmarish day.

Almost makes you believe jet fuel really could melt steel girders.

Yeah we had a whole series of threads. ILX had the perverse advantage of being up and running when just about every news site as such had crashed. I pretty much was on there all day with the exception of going into work and back.

Same.

Was I here? All I remember was crowding in the break room on base and we were trying to figure out who were getting to go to war with. And marching in formation everywhere with extra dorks on duty with loaded weapons because we were at FPCON Delta.

I think I remember posting on ILX in 2001, but not much for those five months I was stuck in Texas, one of which was September.

I'll admit I was partly looking at those threads to see if I was posting here yet, but think I joined some months after.

I just pulled some people out of the WTC towers and saved their lives (193 new answers, last updated September 11th, 2001)

I wasn't here that early.

Re forbidden thoughts: I just finished an otherwise very good book (which I won't name because to do so would be spoilery) and discovered that the author decided 9/11 was the perfect way to end the story and provide her protagonist with spiritual catharsis. Damn near ruined the thing for me. I had thought we were past that, especially in an otherwise hilarious novel that's all about solipsism, voluntary withdrawal from society 'cause people are annoying idiots, etc., etc.

The good old 'surprise, it's 9/11!' twist ending

Last 17 years would’ve gone much better if we as a nation had just taken 9/11 in stride

i was thinking that very thing the other day!

Sry dude it’s forbidden
