Can't bring it up anymore because no one wants to offend Muslims.

I was eating chicken wings when it happened. I remember that.
Honestly, I was eating a breakfast burrito at a non-English speaking restraunt and hung over when first saw.

I would keep my eyes open and watch where I went. No telling what may or may not happen.

I know that last year when I was working at OSS in NOLA I called in sick...
I know it wasn't a big target, but that's why it's unexpected. I wasn't going to be on the 43rd floor of the tallest building in the city on 9/11...
Thanks, hard pass though.

Even if you're a freshman in college, the event impacted your youth.
They were fricking 5 when it happened. No it didn't affect freshmen in college aside from the years of aftermath. They do not remember a play-by-play of that day as all of us do.
I always somberly remember 9/11, and that day really did change my overall opinion of the world and humanity at large. I was staying with my grandparents at the time and my parents were in Amsterdam. Their flight back to the US was scheduled for 9/12, but they weren't able to make it back until the end of September. Sorry, but that was the end of my innocence on the ignorance on how awful humanity can treat each other. Everyone should remember this day who was alive to see it.
Sad to say, but tomorrow will be the halfway point in my life since 9/11. I was 13 soon to be 14, and I will be 28 next month. Been living 14 years of pointless fear mongering, and it is sad.

Antidotally, I've heard no one speak of it nor seen anything in media. 14 years.
Is there an antidote for stupidity?

This is how our grandparents thought about Pearl Harbor. Every generation has life altering events that will never mean the exact same thing to subsequent generations.

It's the day Obama's countrymen changed this country forever.

9/11 is clearly worse than Pearl Harbor. The only generations that have lived a worse atrocity than that in America lived during the Civil War. Pearl Harbor was a military base, and JFK was just one guy. Pearl Harbor I don't think has highly affected things in the long run because I think our involvement in WWII was inevitable. 9/11 changed everything though, even to this day on the way we live. 9/11 they attacked the single greatest city in the world and our very hearts as a free society.
Attack our military, ok mother frickers, game on. But to attack innocents where they work and change the most iconic skyscraper in the world, holy frick. These people are clear irrational monsters who don't give a flying frick about anything but making sure society collapses entirely and we go back to the Stone Age. That is much more disturbing than anything the Japanese attacked us over.

I am 3 miles west of the World Trade Center right now. It is a queztion too stupid to be asked. So many in my town died. I stared at the dust cloud and you could both smell it and hear it over head all night. My wife and her parents saw the second plane fly over.

In 3rd grade. Teachers cell phone rang, she answered, and dropped it on the floor. Then ran to the front office. I'll never forget. God bless America.

Man, a couple of days ago I just watched 9/11 documentaries and listened to audio from that day.
