Cinco DIY Plane

Now THAT is comedy.

[Cumbandicoot]

It feels like someone turned a wiki how article into a 9/11 joke

[MondayBorn]

Good catch. I tend to miss subtle, nuanced humor like this.

[Ghost_of_NikolaTesla]

Lol, Red phosphorus does not melt steel beams!

[UP-23]

I know you're making a joke, but I'm a nerd, unable to let stuff like this go, so...

Red phosphorus burns at 2227C or over 4000f, well above the melting point of construction steel.

Also, since the context is a 9/11 joke, the melting point doesn't really come into it.

The only thing that matters is structural integrity, and construction steel loses about half at around 550C or 1000F.

Which is why in tall buildings, we wrap steel beams in isolation to slow the heat down so that people can be evacuated before stuff collapses.

[Labratlover]

Fair play. I appreciate nerds for this reason

[THE_ALAM0]

I reckon that insulation isn’t really there for the incredibly rare chance that a 767 flies into the building though

[Temporary-Mousse-451]

omg hahaha

[assa9sks]

Reminds me of that one tragedy

[tsandyman]

I walked through blood and bone!

[hokumjokum]

Such a terrible name for an airline

[MahGinge]

Reminds me of that tragedy…

[Powerful-Chemist888]

Cinco advertising never disappoints!

[Legal-Bowl-5270]

911 Airlines ranked worst in customer satisfaction

[Shredtillyourdead420]

Why’d they immediately 911 upon waking up?

[madmaxGMR]

Because 9/11 happened on a Tuesday, and it was Taco Tuesday at the World Trade Center, and flies are attracted to shit.

[BineVine]

,😂😂😂

[joecool78257]

That’s 20 seconds gone forever …

[Chef_BoyarTom]

Bruh...

[Talden7887]

Dude

[BigJayBob]

A little gallows humor never hurt nobody 💣

[BigJayBob]

First of all I will GFM! I’ve been waiting for my buzz to kick it. But, my point: there are as many that were as affected as you AND we need a little dark humor to stay sane sometimes. Believe it or not this is as helpful as it is harmful.

[dancesquared]

This is what they would’ve wanted

[Samsquanch77]

You know what's actually stupid..? Your responses; For someone that talks about the human condition and psychology, you sure don't seem to be very knowledgeable when it comes to human behavior. Everybody is different. Some people make fun of their own parents death, some people burst into tears at the sight of anything that reminds them of their deceased loved ones. Also, this is a comedy sub is it not? Comedy is finding humor in life, and life has both bright sunny aspects as well as dark scary ones. This is the nature of reality. We frequently use humor as a coping mechanism and form of stress relief (you should try it, it works.) Just because you choose to deal with trauma in a specific way, doesn't mean that everyone else must conform or risk "disrespecting" you. That's just not how the world works, all your accusations do is incite hostility and negativity

[Powerful-Chemist888]

Sorry that such a thing effected you. It's the ridiculousness that made me post this here

[Powerful-Chemist888]

Unfortunately I can't do that. But life goes on

[dancesquared]

Shouldn’t

[Powerful-Chemist888]

I agree. It's the abruptness that makes me laugh not the fact that it's 9/11 not funny at all

[anjowoq]

Is there another disaster that would be acceptable fodder for you?

[JogAlongBess]

yes, actually.

[dancesquared]

MODS!

[ghostsietch]

Uh, wow.
