Number One in the Hood, G
Aqua-teen is apparently a terrorist group now
Shut down the city of Boston
Ignignokt
Or was it Err?
On a panel of tiny christmas lights
Hooked up to some D batteries
Blinking and giving Boston folks the finger
I'm sure you've seen the pictures
"Paralyzed our city"
"It is outrageous, in a post 9/11 world, that a company would use this type of marketing scheme"
Bomb squads
Tunnel closings
Half a million worth of police running around
And for what?
Public safety?
Safety for what?
From what?
Bombs made out a fucking Lite Brite?
They're advertisements
Which
Incidentally, have been up for weeks in NYC
No one seemed to mind
Which also worked
You can't buy this type of publicity
Anyway
The leaders of Boston have saved the day
Saved it's citizens from the grips of evil
Thwarted the threat
One problem though
There is no threat
And if there was one
It's not going to be fashioned out of blinking signs
Adorned with cartoon characters
It's not something you are going to see coming
You want to feel safe?
You want, as George Carlin called it, the "illusion of safety"
Stay the fuck home
Lock yourself in your basement
Drink bottled water
Breathe bottled oxygen
Eat canned foods and that powered astronaut ice-cream
Stop ruining shit for the rest of us
There is no such thing as a safe world
You're taking the fun out of life
Leave everyone else alone
It's your panic
Not mine
My name is...
Shakezula
The mic rulah,
The oldschoolah
Ya wanna trip, I'll bring it to ya
Frylock and I'm on top rock you like a cop
Meatwad you're up next with your knock-knock:
Meatwad make the money, see,
Meatwad get the honeys, G
Drivin in my car, livin' like a star
Ice on my fingers and my toes and I'm a Taurus.
Check, check it, yeah.
'Cause we are the Aqua Teens,
Make the homies say ho and all the girlies wanna scream

So I wrote this in another blog, and here's the response I got:
Mike, get your head out of your ass. Without informing anyone, unknown devices were attached to bridges, intersections, and a room in a medical center. Going on that plus the fact terroists walked through Logan a little over five years ago, I gotta say, that was a good call.
You're also using a false parallel with quoting Carlin. Homeland Security raising terror alerts that coincidently occur when the President needs national support for his latest bullshit falls better into the 'illusion of safety'/fear pschology. But to locals unaware of a cartoon marketing campaign, it's suspicious. It's fucking stupid, Mike, and shows no concern for unattended consequences and I'm glad Boston cops didn't say, "Oh, it's got a picture of a cartoon on it so muliple strategic placings of these boxes can't be dangerous."
I think what you got a problem with, now that the story's in is that Aqua Teen doesn't want to admit that they were stupid on accident and that politicians never admit that they're being stupid on purpose, or just plain dipshits.
Can't take a hit on the feds because it's convenient or usually correct.
nullAnd my response to the above comment:
Get my head out of my ass
Interesting beginning
Anyway
Hundreds of these advertisements were placed all over the country
Not only in Boston
Austin
Seattle
NYC (to name a few)
And, incidentally, they've been there for weeks
How is it no one noticed these things beginning put up?
Two guys walking around, arms loaded with these things
Climbing on, as you said, "bridges, intersections, and a room in a medical center)
And for them to be for upwards of three weeks
And therein lies the illusion of safety
They could have easily done what they've done everywhere else: kept it quiet and took them down
But instead they made an issue out of it
Thereby giving more publicity than the Aqua Teen folks ever dreamed of
If it was something
Like the bombs everyone was so afraid of
It wouldn't have been out in the open
It wouldn't have been flashing lights
But it was nothing
It was a joke
Just like the terror alerts
Homeland Security
And the fact that almost six years later there's still a fucking crater in downtown Manhattan
My point
When does it end?
5 years after the fact?
10?
Resurrecting 9/11 ever time something like this happens
It's pointless and goes to ridiculous lengths
