Wii Balance Board and the War on Terror

"Not only will we now be able to take down terrorists who are nervous about carrying out thoroughly planned missions which they believe will end with them being taken in open arms by an army of virgins, but this balance board test will allow us to find those other bastards who are afraid of flying, nervous about going to a new place, distraught because they're flying to a funeral, or worried about getting to a business meeting on time. Once we reveal their nervousness we'll cavity search and interrogate the fuckers"

Every day I wake up and somehow the world gets just a little bit weirder.

Because this is totally ridiculous. How many fucking false positives would something like this give back? Just because you fidget does not mean you a a terrorist for fuck's sake. Maybe you hate flying.

That was exactly my point. Yes it was sarcastic. Nothing I said from what I can tell makes it look like I "hate freedom". I was just kidding about how rediculous this idea is.

no, i just love freedom and security and feel like this just preserves both of those things for me, and i am thankful for that. i am in NO way offended by this tactic, whatsoever, at all, and i think it is well thought-out and very ingenious.

america wins. eat a dick, freedom haters. a big, red, communist dick.

If it makes you feel better, aaron, I suspected you were being sarcastic the first time around. Suspected.
