Terrapin Posted May 12, 2012 Share Posted May 12, 2012 I must admit that on first inspection I perceived it as 9:11/eleven minutes past 9 or 911. However, I was thinking in terms of the year 2111, a year before 2112 and perhaps a kind of "prequel" to 2112, given the "seeing the future from the past" rhetoric and the Time Machine Tour... Then I realized that I was looking too deeply. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ancient Ways Posted May 12, 2012 Share Posted May 12, 2012 Hooters has a flavor of wings called 911. They are so supposedly so hot you might need to call 911 for an emergency. Does anyone think this is offensive and should be changed? I sure as hell don;t Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tarkus406 Posted May 12, 2012 Share Posted May 12, 2012 I guess it's politically incorrect for us to have to dial "911" whenever we have an emergency? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tigershark2112 Posted May 12, 2012 Share Posted May 12, 2012 The swirling red clouds on the cover are clearly a direct reference to 9/11. I am OFFENDED! And the Watchmaker is obviously Osama Bin Laden. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe; but if you're talking about my new religion, you're way out. As we all know, religion is never funny...at least not on purpose. Although I do think there should be one holy day for humor...but only dark humor...or silly humor...or Good Humor (ice cream, that is). Still, a little ice cream does not a funny religion make. And depending on what direction it takes, that suggestion may even be sacrilegious. So be careful or you'll burn in a lake of really, really hot sauce that burns your tongue forever and ever.
