AI Thread Summary
The discussion revolves around the dilemma of whether to run to catch a train or play it safe, especially in a context involving armed police and heightened security alerts. Participants emphasize the importance of complying with police requests in potentially dangerous situations, particularly in cities with high terror alerts. The conversation quickly shifts to dark humor and satirical commentary on terrorism, with users joking about t-shirt slogans that mock or trivialize serious topics related to terrorism and violence. This leads to a series of absurd and provocative ideas for merchandise that play on the themes of terrorism, often blending humor with a critique of societal responses to such threats. The thread culminates in a mix of laughter and absurdity, reflecting on the bizarre nature of the conversation while acknowledging the serious undertones of the initial question about safety and urgency. Ultimately, the original poster admits to being late, choosing not to risk running for the train.

Don't be silly.

If you are challenged by armed police, I'd suggest you do as they ask you, particularly if you're in a city on a high terror alert.

especially if he just walked out of a terrorist hide out... have you just walked out of any terrorist hide outs? WEAR A T-SHIRT!
 
Just bec carefully mapper. If armed guys come up to you, put up your hands and give them all your money - you never know they might be cops.

Maybe the sign saying "Terrorist Hideout, Beware!" was off being repainted that day.

It's a great idea. let's think here, target market would be youths, college students and maybe even high school students. It would appeal to the goths and punks too due to the fact it would highly offend such a huge portion of the population.

Jeez, these fakers on Xiang Yang market are very fast! I saw some near perfect copies already this morning next to the Adadis and the Tomy Hillfrigger:
" Fruit of the Shanghai real-estate boom"
" Bombers do it with 74 virgins but play safe and follow the one child policy"
"My other car is Chinese"

In the CD shops they sell "Bomb and circumstance" again.

I also saw a new line of "throw away" rucksacks. Padded Jackets were also abundant on the market, I heard they are genuine because of a Brazilian order that was cancelled.

Yeah, it's a great one. We can do it in bold red blood font overtop of a picture of OBL with a big grin/grimace on his face holding a big Nintendo-esque bomb (you know, the big black round thing with a fuse on top). It's a gold mine.

Gotta work in a Milk Mustache though to go with the quote.

(Do any non Kanuks understand what the f* we're talking about? That is the Canadian Milk Marketing Board were quoting!)
