Obvious fact of the day:

"The bus was full, but it emptied quickly."

That's nothing. I went to Berlin, DE in November of 2001. I had a stopover in Paris and two drunk French college kids sat next to me. One of the first things they said to me was "We are Al Queda. When the plane starts we are going to shoot everyone" and then they started making machine gun noises.

I have a sense of humor so I laughed it off, but CHRIST, that was the last thing I wanted to hear.

I hope they throw the book at him. Not because of the whole threat thing, but because of the transportation nightmare he caused for the people on the bus. That sucks.

Sounds like a job for Mr. Reeves.

iamrobot		2004-01-02 05:37:24 PM

although now that it's 1984 throwing the book at him means a one-way to guantanamo bay with no trial, for the rest of his life.

//hey, if french trolling is okay...

Sharkbait		2004-01-02 05:37:32 PM

No No aw-sif-er I said this stuff I am drinkin' is da bomb...

S'pht'Kr		2004-01-02 05:42:40 PM

But hey, if it shuts them up, it shuts them up.

I have to say, young French people today are a lot like frat boys who are under the mistaken impression that they're somehow clever. Only more obnoxious.

If you're having a party, don't invite any... they tend to make complete asses of themselves and cause cops to show up. And they usually mouth off to cops too.

Jeebus, SockMonkeyHolocaust... you laughed it off? I was coming out of Memphis in November right after 9/11, and as the plane was pulling away from the gate, a guy got up and started walking to the front of the plane. 3 Northwest crew that were deadheading on the flight jumped him, we went back to the gate and he was arrested. All the time he was screaming "I just want to use the restroom!" Screw him. The rest of the passengers wanted to kill the guy and throw his body off the plane in flight. I hope he's rotting in jail somewhere.

/didn't your mom teach you to go before you leave?

lysergic		2004-01-02 05:45:41 PM

We've all wanted to do this one time or another, right? Er, right?

ScottMpls		2004-01-02 05:48:27 PM

Sounds like the guy has an explosive temper ...

I have a theory that booze alters your judgment (and your sense of humor).

Man_With_No_Name		2004-01-02 05:52:49 PM

I have a balm!

Epsilon		2004-01-02 05:52:57 PM

Rodeodoc, all he did was walk toward the front of the plane? Isn't it possible that the dumbass didn't know the pisser is in the back, or did he do something else?

goodgirl4badboy		2004-01-02 05:53:58 PM

Interesting theory, Epsilon. Did you come up with that yourself?

Marron, who was wearing a trench coat, did not have a package or a bomb, police said.

And they called him a man? (emphasis mine)

Deviant		2004-01-02 06:00:26 PM

doubleyew ennnnnnnn bee cee

Sidi		2004-01-02 06:00:54 PM

And they called him a man? (emphasis mine)

He didn't have a package when the police arrived. A bus full of angry people and all that.

Moral of the story: always wear a cup if you're going to make bomb threats.

DeathZero		2004-01-02 06:05:37 PM

Marron was still aboard when police arrived minutes later and charged him with first-degree threatening

Holy shiat, THREATENING is a crime now? So a four year old kid could get his mom thrown in jail because she said "Oooo if you don't behave you'll get no dessert!" Oh god, it's the Salem Witch Trials all over again.

"I don't like your drinking, I think it effects your decision making/"

"You could be right, I can't decide."

ScreaminSteve		2004-01-02 06:14:14 PM

Here's yet another story about some drunk doing something stupid..... If you're an aging rock star from a pseudo-intellectual band, you have your apologists. If you're just a drunk on a bus doing something just as stupid, you're an idiot. I guess selling a few records changes some people's perceptions.

dyn0mike		2004-01-02 06:15:33 PM

I wonder if George Clinton can get arrested for dropping da bomb.

goodgirl4badboy		2004-01-02 07:26:33 PM

Interesting theory, Epsilon. Did you come up with that yourself?

Big_Phil		2004-01-02 07:31:57 PM

yup...the ol' bomb trick. that'll shut them up real good

cbm5		2004-01-02 07:35:42 PM

Somebody set us up the bomb.
All your bus are belong to us.

/can't believe this is Fark and no one already said it

DinoVomit		2004-01-02 07:37:37 PM

anyone find the charge "first degree threatening" scary?

bombria		2004-01-02 07:53:04 PM

Take me to Cooba!

ZAZ		2004-01-02 08:16:22 PM

DinoVomit

I do. This should not be a felony. It's straightforward disorderly conduct.

Denshuu		2004-01-02 08:17:48 PM

And then the bus driver was like "We get signal. Main screen turn on."

matto22		2004-01-02 09:01:28 PM

Marron so close to moron.
"1st degree threatening", I think they need a better term.
Perhaps: 1st degree moron.

On the other hand. This dude might not even remember... That would be great.

DerangedHermit		2004-01-03 12:05:45 AM

SockMonkeyHolocaust: Of course you brushed it off. They were French.

SockMonkeyHolocaust		2004-01-03 01:49:39 AM

DerangedHermit & Rodeodoc
It was more like I realized that assholes are everywhere. Haven't either one of you ever heard a Challenger joke?

They were the only raging pricks I met and most Germans and Parisians were very consoling.
