    Default 4chan in the news!!!

    Holy shit, it's been done.
    4chan has made it into the news.

    I'm sure many of you have heard something somewhat like this going around the news lately:
    On Sunday, October 22nd, 2006, there will be seven "dirty" explosive devices detonated in seven different U.S. cities; Miami, New York City, Atlanta, Seattle, Houston, Oakland and Cleveland. The death toll will approach 100,000 from the initial blasts and countless other fatalities will later occur as result from radioactive fallout.

    The bombs themselves will be delivered via trucks. These trucks will pull up to stadiums hosting NFL games in each respective city. All stadiums to be targeted are open air arenas, excluding Atlanta\'s Georgia Dome, the only enclosed stadium to be hit. Due to the open air, the radiological fallout will destroy those not killed in the initial explosion.

    The explosions will be near simultaneous, with the cities specifically chosen in different time zones to allow for multiple attacks at the same time. The 22nd of October will mark the final day of Ramadan as it would fall in Mecca. Al-Qaida will automatically be blamed for the attacks. Later, through Al-Jazeera, Osama bin Laden will issue a video message claiming responsibility for what he dubs "America's Hiroshima".

    In the aftermath civil wars will erupt across the world, both in the Middle East and within the United States. Global economies will screech to a halt. General chaos will rule.
    It came from a topic on 4chan's /b/ which turned into copy pasta.
    Then it spread across the internet, and Homeland security got thier hands on it.
    The result?

    So what would you make of this, free publicity for 4chan, or simply a joke mistaken for an act of terrorism?

    He's excited because of the publicity that we are getting because of the mistaken terrorism plot.

    More like this is a legendary moment for the simple fact that it's on the news.
    Nothing more, nothing less.
