Morning of 9/11 what were you doing? | |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 77104996 United States 09/11/2019 12:46 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I was one of the first planes out of Baltimore to go to Louisville to visit my husband the following Friday. It was a horrible experience. Never saw an airport like that with so many terrified people that just wanted to get home. It was so scary just being there and getting on a plane but I forced myself to go regardless. I'll never forget that week. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 31251681 United States 09/11/2019 12:55 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Off work, hung over, in the midst of a divorce and sleeping on a buddy's couch waiting for an apartment to be ready for move in... woke up & was walking through the kitchen & saw the first tv was on in the living room & he was watching a report about a 'light plane' that'd just crashed into one of the World Trade Center towers... the report had a cam on the smoke rising from the tower, live. Quoting: ScrumpTheTexan I thought it was a movie at first it was so surreal... and then I watched in disbelief as the second plane crashed, live. Damnedest thing I've ever seen... No shit. It was same I was watching and the second plane came along. Weird shit. |

They really did time it perfectly, considering I'm on west coast. I dont really remember the towers as a monument before then. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 77225670 Sure as fuck didn't go to school that day. Progressive ass junior high had us visiting a Mosque within 6 months. Imagine how much worse the leftism is today, 18 years after 9-11. Even non-liberal George Bush Jr, on the day following the collapse of the Twin Towers, said one of the most foolish lines of his administration: "Islam is a religion of peace." . |

He was quite ecstatic about the whole thing. We spent the rest of the day watching news coverage. Didn't wake up to the reality if it until a almost 10 years after. |

My wife woke me up and I got to see the second plane hit not five minutes later from the window. I hate reading the 9/11 threads here like it never happened. Fuck anyone who says it was fake! I saw it, heard it, felt it. Don't get more real than that! Reality leaves a lot to the imagination... John Lennon |

We all rushed down to the lobby when we heard what happened. Lot's of Americans there. Never forget the old lady screaming, her husband worked in one of the towers. Didn't use the tube that evening when going home, I can tell. It was some tensions in the air. Lot of police out. |

When I came home the TV was already on and showed the first tower burning and just before I could hear what was going on, the second plane hit. What happened on 9/11 has changed our lives for ever.... Last Edited by Vigilo ex Umbra on 09/11/2019 01:44 AM — ANNIS RELIQUIT XXI |

Got to the first tee and heard the chatter. Came home in time to watch the second tower get blown up. So surreal, all of it. To think at the time I actually believed the narrative. Scary |

User ID: 77755577 United States 09/11/2019 02:14 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I was riding the bus to school in third grade. At this point game boys were massive so i was distracted until we got to the school. I remember the faces of the adults. The crt tvs were all on showing it live. We were on lockdown and got home later than usual. It was very surreal. :memorybanner: |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 73622748 United States 09/11/2019 02:15 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I was looking forward to picking up my girlfriend up at the airport in a few hours, then she calls and asks if I heard the news. I said "yeah what's going on, they're going nuts on the radio" she tells me the towers are on fire. I had to drive to a different airport instead of the one I normally would late that night and remember talking to her about what happened and how crazy it all was. Strange times but somehow not as strange as now. I'll never forget that period of time, there was just something in the air, I'll never forget my friends then and my girlfriend then and the music I listened to during that time. It was an exciting time in my life, I was in my early 20s, in love for the first time.. It was the end of something. |
