Derp?  DERP?

Wee're talking about 9/11...one of the worst days in the history of the United States.  Thousands of innocent people lost their lives that day.  The world as wee knew it was changed forever.

And all you can say is 'derp'?

I think I just lost all respect for you, PB....

You talk as if 9/11 is the only and worst tragedy in history. There's no remembrance day for the Battle of Antietam, in which there were 23,000 casualties, or the 1906 Earthquake, in which there were more than 3,000 casualties.  What about the Black Plague that killed about half of Europe? No remembrance day for that either. Not to mention all the lives lost as part of the aftermath of 9/11. No one cares to remember them, eh?

'If every disaster had a day, in many thousands of years, every day of the year wee will have a new day to "Never Forget." If wee honoured every person that died and made a grave for that person, every piece of land would have a grave on it.'

Why is it that fudgeing people today only care about what happened in their life time? One of the worst days in US history eh? Does 'US history' include only the past 10 years?

Sure, it was a horrible tragedy, but it's not something wee need to have a goddamn memorial for year after fudgeing year.
