Toall law enforcement officers, thank you for taking the utmost caution in your job. For the times that it has been the only line between utter disaster and another happy american day, thank you. To all officers who had the common sense to google aqua teen, ask someone what it might mean, look it up, or look up historical occurances of NEON illuminated WOMD's, thank you as well. Everyone makes mistakes, and if youre worried about neon signs clearly you are paying close attention. Cudos. :-)

[i9incher]

haha i have that as my background!

[Pundit07]

Ok, so I read on wikipedia that after this incident the former president of cartoon network (when he was still president) stepped down. after that, a new president took his place and carried on his work. I dont mean to sound stupid, but does anyone else think this is the reason why cartoon network has been getting worse over the years?

[54markl]

Idiotic! And George Bush had to get into the act? How could a grown city like Boston behave like a bunch of Aqua Teen Hunger Force characters? Ignignokt and Err were deemed a threat? What kind of idiots thought that? How can my sister live in such a stupid city? I had never heard of ATHF at the time, but now I am a big fan. Stop attacking an innocent cartoon and deal with the real terrorists, you fools! Start with the Tea Party, who I believe began in Boston.

[bleesev2]

lol i love guerilla advertising techniques ATHF dont stop your pure awesomeness!

[zeromaster212]

These guys were freaked out about a set of lights looking like a cartoon? Thank god I don't watch all the FAIL that is the american news system. I like everything else on TV though.

[TheDreamwalker24]

the moon : 1

the earth: 0

[bleesev2]

@TheDreamwalker24 hahahaha

[TheShiteMaster]

My name is Shakezula the mic rula

[RandallPStudios]

Genius!

[TexasPsychoK]

Trolling Boston is like trolling retarded people... they have their heads so far stuck up their asses with the Red Sox, Celtics and Patriots that few of their kids would know about the badassness that is Aqua Teen.

[hydrolisk1792]

This event may have f-ed up a lot of things, but it was still a bad ass event, I remember it like it was yesterday. I was actualy building some of those a few months prior but hid them in an unknown location when this scare arrose, weird huh? Mine were made from LEDs, I think that some of the Boston ones were lite-brites and some were LED.

[bboyh8sh8shmann]

hey,those moonites have lasers! I mean, they could of kiled us all!

[lordofthescooby]

@bboyh8sh8shmann And have you seen the size of the bullet? It's huge.

[Couchlog]

if america didnt get people mad we wouldnt have to worry about getting bombed , too bad theres noo way we can fix that lol

[djBLiiR]

lol America, fucking shithole paranoia land. its like there all fycking retards, have fun lving amon terrorists americunts

[idaWHALE]

hahahaha and djBLiiR you're canadian.... enough said

[livelongpartyharder]

@idaWHALE Whats wrong with that? We don't have constant fear and paranoia of being bombed or attacked. Americans are superior in NO way at all. Who are you trying to convince? Us, or yourself?

[MrCatbat62]

I live about.....umm like 2 hours away from Boston.

[grendelee]

lol it wasnt even a box, it was a plastic sheet with litebrite on it. ahahahaa Bomb disposal expert is like...ok?...wheres the rest of it?

[nera789]

Whaaaaa? This was a real event?

[ZEROHOURREVENGE]

oh btw this is the reason there is no more toonami and no more good shows on cartoonetwork

WAY TO GO

[DrawingRulez]

Wow i typed in what time it was exactly right now and this showed up and i cant believe this happened....

[Nfox0900]

Never forget. So many people would of lost their lives to adult comedy if it wasnt for those whitty, smart boston people. You deserve a round of applause boston!

[Biotendo]

how is it that an led light is confused with a bomb?

[tgbotg]

hey, one good thing came from it .. ATHF was advertised on every major news network, when the makers were just looking to canvas Boston, lol.

[rydgemolino]

wow im sure parris hilton is smarter than these boston cops CMON SON!!!

[truesniper2187]

what song is this? its really good.

[20324758]

BOSTON´S CLOSED DUE TO MOONINITES

[gothicskulls]

DON'T PANIC!

this is

NOT A BOMB

don't be afraid.

don't call the police.

stop letting the terrorist win.

1-31-07 Never Forget.

[RazorSAID]

Shoot them the bird, Err. Yeah give 'em the finger Ignignokt. It started with Boston, soon they will take over this primitive planet. MOONINITES FTW

[SansAuthoritas]

It's like it just happened yesterday. The wounds still haven't healed. The wounds inside. Deep inside. 1-31-07... NEVER FORGET!

[xSTiZZLE]

Never Forget!!!

Boston Sucks, they are such spastic anal meats

[duzitickle]

never forget. 

*tear*

[cac428]

we will never forget

[Nightmare87SoCal]

Well it's the Third Anniversary today. Still clear in my mind.

[jerrylovesu1]

Boston seriously sucks balls.

[suchy36]

honestly how stupid can people be... a bomb? really? wow lol id say the guys that did it win hard and boston fails pretty hard.

[brnsktingdieskting18]

...fuck boston.

[Fuse8499]

YOU FAGGOT

[aristottlesdeathwish]

still haven't forgotten

[Nightmare87SoCal]

Not only did this fiasco cause Jim Samples to lose his job it brought in Network Decay for CN because Stuart Snyder and Robert Sorcher are total morons for not knowing what the name of their station is by bringing in "Cartoon Network Real".

[psychotacon87]

probably the best marketing ploy to go wrong in history. never forget.

[psychotacon87]

alternatively: east-coasters gotta make such a huge fuss about EVERYTHING... ;)

[TexasPsychoK]

Boston is full of homos and fat girls... Sorry... I've been there. New York, well, I hate their teams, but at least it's model, hipster chick, model, fat girl... Boston, wow. Worst place for goodlooking girls. Really.

[beastmatt101]

Dont say shit about boston

[Cybunnylover]

i want one of those mooninite lit brites :D

[caltrop69]

What's with the crappy pop music?

I think they've had their way in LaGuardia, as well...

They went without the LEDs, though, and just appeared as batteries and wires.

[tdizzlefizzle]

wow i hope they feel like idiots thinkin its a bomb

[theropingeffect]

It is illegal to cry fire in a crowded theater and it should also be illegal to cry bomb in a crowded subway.

[caltrop69]

Is it OK to cry "neat" in a crowded shubbery?

[theropingeffect]

It is.

[BigChowderFan]

this can Tell You How Stupid Americans Can Be

A Mooninite Neon Light Is Not a Bomb

[TCBloo]

At least, we know proper grammar and capitalization.

[colive7]

Yeah, you mean how stupid humans can be? Because I'm sure wherever you're from is just 99.99% geniuses and they're all a part of MENSA, right douchebag?

[Khono]

The most messed up part of it was that the news and most people who spoke on it seemed to think that, because it had been mistaken for a bomb, the people who put it up should be charged. They all took it seriously and, in my hour or so reading/watching about the story after it happened, it seemed almost nobody thought those guys didn't put up a bomb or a bomb-lookalike and thus don't deserve this. They were all trying to hang the guys. Completely ridiculous, yet they took it seriously.

[crackiswhack098]

proof the terrorists have won. We are afraid of our own shadow.

[maddog4it]

Oh! So that is what the terrorist wanted to accomplish this whole time! I misunderstood!

[Trannigan334]

@crackiswhack098 Not all of us, just the morons.

[Isakuma]

@crackiswhack098 You'd be scared too if there was this fucking black thing following YOU around!

HOLY FUCK, THERE IT IS AGAIN!

[WrathOfTheGate87]

it was actually the aqua teen and adult swiim staff who put em up all over the place, and whats funny every one was all in a panic with it, but when asked about it by reporters the creators continued seeing the joke and basically stating that the other were overreacting through mimickrey. it was funny as heck

[FlinstoneX]

wtf is going on, i dont get it

[jakeejust]

Who the heck thinks a freaking cartoon character is a bomb? Does it look like something to scare people! No its just a advertisement, and anyway didn't the police allow them to put of the signs?

[Khono]

Your toothbrush could be a bomb. Your kid sister might really be a bomb. Damn those nefarious terrorists, now we'll never be safe!

Hah, should respond to this video with that scene from the Simpsons where Principal Skinner says: "I am a bomb!" Then Wiggum says that his "dynamite" was just hotdogs.

[Eddie820]

Boston will always be full of douchebags.

[xXTimeLincolnXx]

The Moon Rules!

[MysteryAC]

Proof of pure stupidity.

[lordofthescooby]

Happy anniversary Boston! You got spanked with moon rocks.

[Cirkustanz]

Never forget!

[PoopPoopFart]

NEVER FORGEt

[jablair51]

We shall never forget!!!

[NOVAGIRL666]

good wonderful memories

having the honor to see this prnanks on the news and reading it in the papers makes me laugh in tears

good times good times

though i cant boston took this so seriously but oh well during this whole thing i laughed about it

[DarkBunnyLord]

Hey hey, they had to take it seriously. I mean clearly when terrorists set up bombs they put funny little GLOWING images on them so that they' stand out like a sore thumb...

I love though that they said "the devices contained many similar qualities to a bomb" aka wires and batteries... wow but wouldn't that mean taping a digital watch to something would be the same? I mean it has the same qualities lol

[PlasmaSam]

i have tattoo because of this, best decision ever

[PrincessInnesa]

Ahh. Memories.

[ChrisG667]

I still remember...

[DonHoraldo]

now the question is what to do on the 2nt anniversary.

[travh1mself]

lmao

[afnoporo21]

THE GORGATRON HAS APEARED!

[FallOutGirl917]

Boston By Augustana

[kr4z1]

what song was used in the beginning?

[MrPibb71]

i dont know why but im still laughing. i guess it's because im from Boston

[Adjournon]

But it's just a Lightbrite. Seriously, ooooooh, look out, here it comes! Watch out for the child's toy, it's heading right for us! Get it Ned! By that logic, every piece of trash, every discarded McDonalds cup under a bridge could possibly be a pager activated C-4 infused object. It was just a lightbrite and total morons blew this whole thing out of proportion.

[studystrike]

Imagine someone planted a bomb in your town bridge and you just scoffed it off and said it must be one of those light brite but that bridge exploded becaus it was a bomb and your entire family died because of it, how would you feel?

[TexasPsychoK]

You're gay... fag. ATHF rules!

[OeIsCool]

It's fucking lite brites. Jesus.

[Meat81959]

Imagine someone planted a litebrite toy on your town bridge and millions of other places in and out of the city.. and then the media blew it out of proportion saying that the Terrorists have done the plane thing, now they're trying to be artists with cartoon characters on their bombs.  Then when they found out they made a huge mistake, they blamed it on two kids that put litebrite toys up with cartoon characters on them because they didn't want to admit they fucked up completely.

[ChrisGsk8]

intresting but what ur forgetting is that bombs dont look like that

[studystrike]

do bombs have to look like a bomb to be a bomb?

[codyhess46]

der.

[aaharrington]

Yes a bomb must look like a bomb to be a bomb. If a bomb has the look of a dildo that does not make it a dildo that makes it a bomb. So yes if a bomb is a bomb it looks like a bomb.

[pilarxwagnr]

you should be able to laugh at yourself.

there are times to take things seriously

and times to not.

your town screwed up.

now laugh, bitch.

[studystrike]

so do you laugh after or before a bomb really explodes?

[pilarxwagnr]

after.

but only if you're in it.

[studystrike]

why are you making this personal?

[pilarxwagnr]

...i'm not.

it's a funny situation.

so, i'm laughing.

mourn if you wish.

but right now, i think i'll just go ahead and keep on laughing.

[studystrike]

then just keep on laughing.

[pilarxwagnr]

alrighty.

[ChrisGsk8]

do u walk in2 ur house turn on ur light and go "FUCK ITS A BOMB!!" or sumin not everthing with a light is a bomb

[pilarxwagnr]

...you're forgetting that it wasn't a bomb.

you shouldn't be afraid of dying anyway.

it's inevitable.

you should maybe just accept the fact that some day, you're going to die.

go play with a light bright.

make a pretty picture, please.

[secondpower]

okay...

[pilarxwagnr]

thanks.

[greyelf437]

that came out very tyler durden-ey

[pilarxwagnr]

haha.

hey, thanks.

i didn't even realize that.

i love that movie.

watching it on my ipod as we speak, actually.

c:

[ambergerftriley]

agreed

[Paulsworks]

Yes, BUT IT DIDN'T. I think you must live in fear. Your comment wreaks of paranoia.....REALLY

[MrSaxon1]

u can have SO much fun ... with me S

[godzillaskater17]

you fucked up big time boston

[barrboy17]

Ignignot and Errrrr

[phish1988]

just pure LOL

[long2534]

how the hell were the cops that stupid? i mean what part of that shit screams bomb? the lights, the wire, or the battery? who the fuck would make a light up bomb anyways wtf

[Canonsnob]

Was that myspace tom holding one at 3:30 ???haha

[pisscunt]

how the hell did they think that was a bomb?

[Canonsnob]

because our government fills our lives with scare tactics so that we fearingly hand over our common sense and allow them to do as they please. This is just a byproduct of our communities living their lives in an overly nurtured angst. A now natural reaction as a result of being constantly bombarded by overly exaggerated "terrors" fed to us by Washington and the media.

[YoruichiGurl]

i totally agree with you i mean they lie and shove those distractions in our faces so they can get away with these prices on everything and what is our benifit? being terrified of something as simple as a light up 'superfinger' hoax from an animated television show? what's next? "people ran in fear yesterday from a kitten that meowed at an innocent bistander!" i can see it now... TOTAL BS

[pisscunt]

good answer

[madman564323]

Dude that was awesome! Aqua Teen Hunger Force Forever!

[mike74978]

this happened on my birthday

[OniGlitch]

im srry dude

[golovelyo]

Hi people

[698qwerty]

Hi.

[BeastoftheEastxCj]

BOSTON SUCKS GO YANKEES nice town tho saw it summer 08 explorer of the seas Canada,New England cruise and ATHF kicks ass

[EyeFarts]

you would expect some cops to recognize lite-brites or atleast the characters...

[Itachisasukekiller]

tasteless piece of crap

[itsGoboboy]

adult swim just eats this up

[Kurtfr0]

moonites will return one day and spank those nerds with moon rocks :)!

[Chazzamon]

whats this song?

mint vid!

[JohnnieRadical]

Agusta's "Boston"

Do you get it?

Cause all this happened in Boston....

[eochaidh]

Didnt have a clue what this was about until i googled news articles. This is feckn unbelievable, lmfao. Cant believe this caused such a commotion in boston, was expecting to see april 1st on the dates posted on the articles :)

[ppheadd]

*suspicious and obviously lying* I LOVE HOMELAND SECURITY....AND FEEL VERY SAFE WITH THEIR EVER WATCHFUL EYE......WATCHING OVER ME AND EVERYTHING I DO.....

[SimplyOrange537]

love it!

[suchy36]

amazing video... i wish i was there too see that it would have been verry cool. but it's sad how people reacted i mean realy.

go athf!

[Shanx1337]

shit, i want one lol

[korngod]

didt they tink it was a bomb

[BOONJAGGANESS]

yea, they literally took it as a bombscare. Traffic jams due to police activity, over light bright children toys and neon light signs. Adults and parents defend the government at times and at most times don't sound like they have common sense when they do. It hits me and makes me sad to know that I have to listen to stupid people freak out over light brights on the news, when in reality at that time crime in certain areas probably went up for a bit, due to the opportunity.

[1Avion1]

what was aqua teen hunger?

[ipod1234567]

the best show on earth

[Face2nutts]

NEVER UNDERESTEMATE THE POWER OF STUPID PEOPLE IN LARGE GROUPS.

This just gos to show you that people will freak out for nothing...its sad...it only takes one spark to ignite a fire of people looting and shooting eachother. I think it was funny at the confrence that they talked about hair....fuck the media, and fuck all those people who live in fear, they are so closed off they forgot to just laugh at life, and be free...I pitty them, they are slaves to fear...and the media.

[r3retry9]

i forgot about that!

[Drforrester31]

Damn, if I had the chance I woulda jacked two of them. That's like a piece of American history right there, high lighting the age of extreme paranoia we all live in. I mean I understand being wary of an unknown device hanging off a building, but come on... How is there not one person in all of BPD that has never seen a Mooninite before. Or after the first one was taken down, why not just send a single officer to take them down and unplug them, instead of detonatiing them in a little bomb chamber

[StolenBatteries]

they actually detonated them?! you're not serious-- right?

[Drforrester31]

yeah, there were other vids showing poor little Err being blown apart T_T

[BOONJAGGANESS]

yea literally. Here's how these things kind of happen in America.

step 1 - stupid person does or reacts to something in a stupid way.

step 2 - stupid people believe/react to him in a stupid if not stupider way that ignites a media fire

step 3 - stupid people at home who believe the media take it in and tell friends, igniting more fires

step 4 - the fire spreads to other regions, via media and more stupid people.

step 5 - the fire dies down sometime, leaving the stupid people, . .stupider.

[BOONJAGGANESS]

er, take out the word stupid and replace it with wise. . . .

I've seen kids who of course aren't as smart and can easily be intuitive enough to say "what the hell, how dumb are you?"

[donovanfrost]

So paranoia reigns supreme eh?

Tell the people they are in constant danger from an enemy that could be anyone,anywhere, and this is the result.

We once called this sort of thing "McCarthyism" but that was applied to the cold war.

So how about an apporpriate name for this nonsense?

[lynch03]

I lost 0 relatives on that that fateful day. Stand strong America.

[DJDuckdodger]

Lol. Well, It just shows what society has come to.

[juliaml]

what happened

[PhilDisaster]

somebody set us up the bomb!

[ricy209]

The prophecies are true.... the curse of boston is back red sox and pats will continue to lose important games...bwahahahaha

[hbakes]

is this serious? i hope this isnt serious

[Firewalker358]

Unfortunately this is serious, the idiotic Boston police thought these lit up signs were in fact explosive devices for the simple reason that they had wires behind them. My comment to the hard working boys in blue of Boston.... Watch more cartoons!

[hbakes]

no, not what the police thought, this 1-31-07 never forget thing, who ever made it is portraying it like it was a tragedy haha when nothing happened, make one about something terrible that did happen, like 911

[TexasPsychoK]

That's the joke.. obviously it went over your head. Hilarious.

[Itachisasukekiller]

thats nothing to joke about

[dlhitch2007]

You have to forgive the police. The mooninites are pretty scary. If terrorists strike again they may well do it with bombs decorated with cartoon characters.

[juventes]

Lest we forget

We must always be alert. The lite-brite menace may return at any moment, pouncing on our unexpectedness like a panther.

[Ikimono]

all I have to say is this, "Boston = SAD."

Boston's Police = Epic Fail.

[kingofkingsBK1718]

boston is gay. ny is tough ya we were scared.OF 2 FUCKIN PLANES GOIN INTO A BUILDING!!!!!!!!!!!!! boston are just fagguts.OMFG A LED SIGN WERE GUNNA DIE!!!!!!!!!!

[xbones88]

I don't understand. How could that "Lite-Bright" thingy be mistaken for a bomb? And then they try to crucify the guy who made it?

Senseless!

[ihateretail]

oh boston, your my home. silly town.

funniest thing *ever*

[rlazur]

1-31-07 NEVAR FORGET! That the city of Boston is full of idiots.

[JudasAddiction]

My heart goes out to you Boston...

[tonydmyers]

The stylized "AD GONE BAD" image cracked me up. It's interesting to think of the poor graphic designers who have to sit around and slap together that shit all day.

[PoopPoopFart]

NEVER FORGET

[KalissaStarr]

I will never, ever forget.

[jo232409]

That was so awesome.

[captainswordhead]

Happy anniversary, Boston!

1-31-07 NEVER FORGET!

[ptownblazer]

One year ago the city of Boston shut down over brightlites. Stupidty!
