Tomorrow is 9/11. Does it still mean anything?

Anecdotally, I've heard no one speak of it nor seen anything in media. 14 years. Even if you're a freshman in college, the event impacted your youth. It was obviously a day that will live in infamy and one which impacted my life significantly. Still, seems like it's becoming just "history." Tomorrow is Friday; football is starting and kids have soccer games.

It seems like the first year, IMO, the date is minimally recognized so far. That's neither good or bad I suppose, but noteworthy nonetheless.

Without delving into politics and religion, let the day remind you to cherish your loved ones and live for the day because you never know. 9/10/01 there was meaningless game between the Broncos and Giants that people were excited for just like tonight, a regular day. You just never know. Remind those you love how much you love them and don't forget.

You don't think it mean anything to people who lost family or friends?

I'm sure they're sick of always having to hear about it from dumbasses trying to shove it down their throat.

All the memorials/special reports/etc. are happening tomorrow. What is there to report on today? Nothing other than 9/11 anniversary is tomorrow.

I noticed this too

The feeling of overwhelming sadness I used to have on the week of the anniversary seems like it's dissipating

Will never forget though

No, people are too busy looking for reasons to get their feelings hurt.
