I can't help but laugh and at the same time be pissed off about how ignorant these idiots are. Seriously. How the **** would CARTOON CHARACTERS giving the finger be a terrorist plot?!

Quote
The bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives has confirmed  that this is a hoax. Some of the markings on the devices found resemble a cartoon character.

1) Not a hoax of any kind
2) OF COURSE IT'S A ****ING CARTOON.

No no it's definately a bomb. Look. it has wires. Blinky lights, and a bunch of batteries taped with electrical tape. What else could it be?

Well, you have to ask yourself, what would you do if you saw a blinking electronic device planted on a bridge? Keep in mind that you might not recognize it as a cartoon character at first; the resolution is quite bad. Keep in mind that as a citizen, you may not have watched these cartoons. Even if you have, many, many people drive past them on a morning. It only takes one person to pick up their cellphone and report it.
Interestingly enough, this signature is none of the following:
A witty remark on whatever sad state of affairs the world may or may not be in
A series of localized forum in-jokes
A clever and self-referential comment on the nature of signatures themselves.

Since when do bombs have lights on them? What a bunch of idiots. If you ask me, they should file charges against the guy who reported it for making a disturbance, not the guy who put them there.

If you watched the coverage on the website, at the end it is stated that there were about 10 of these in 10 cities for over 2 weeks already. Someone in Boston, though, went Ape****.

It doesnt even have enough volume to be a bomb of any worth. And no bomber in his right mind would put it in a publicly viewable place with blinkig lights.

I just saw a fairly long apology bump on Adult Swim, basically saying how they're sorry for the misunderstanding, didn't mean to alarm anyone, are calling the proper people etc. I believe this was some kind of ad campaign they hired out to a 3rd party and it got out of hand.

I was hoping for a punchline at the end of their apology, but unfortunately, they were completely serious.
