THE MOON RULZ BOSTON: AQUA TEENS SHUT DOWN BEANTOWN

The Boston story is shake-your-head unbelievable, at least if you don't live in and around Boston, and weren't inconvenienced by the shutdown of highways and bridges caused by "nine suspicious electronic devices" today. And especially if you're a fan of Cartoon Network's "Aqua Teen Hunger Force."
As you've no doubt heard by now, the devices turned out to be not dirty bombs, but rather large Lite-Brite style renditions of the Mooninites Ignignokt and Err, the mouthy little aliens who often show up and try and push the Aqua Teens around, in hilariously inept ways. They once convinced little Meatwad to try and steal a DVD rack from a local electronics store, often brag about their excellent vertical leaping abilities (they can't really jump very high at all), and shoot a Quad-Glacier gun that takes forever to reach its target and doesn't really hurt anyone.
And somehow those little aliens managed to shut down the great city of Boston? Somewhere up in the Moon, Err and Ignignokt are jumping around in complete triumph and spray-painting "THE MOON RULZ" on neighbor Carl's muscle car.

It's obvious to any "Aqua Teens" fan that these are Mooninite replicas, once you're faced with a clear photo. Apparently they were placed as part of a "10-city outdoor marketing campaign" by Turner Broadcasting to promote the "ATHF" upcoming movie (Did you know there was an Aqua Teens movie? And that it is described as an "action epic"? And that it features a flaming chicken? Number one in the 'hood, G!)

If an Aqua Teen fan had been on the Boston police force, could he or she have recognized the Mooninites and stopped the insanity sooner? Maybe, but maybe not. Because how dumb is it of Turner Broadcasting if they did in fact place these at bridges and subway stations in this post-911 era? We can't even take more than 3 ounces of Mr. Bubble on a plane, how did they assume some funky-looking electronic devices left in prominent spots in the city would pass unnoticed? (Although most of them apparently did, in the 9 other cities where this marketing scheme was supposedly tried.)
In the "Aqua Teens" episode where Err and Ignignokt try and shoot their Quad-Glacier gun at Carl, they fire the weapon, then discover why it's called the Quad-Glacier: The ammo moves at glacial speed, crawling towards its intended victim, who has plenty of time to move out of the way.
"The explosion shall be of extraordinary magnitude," taunts Ignignokt. "Just hang on!"
"It takes a while," chimes in Err.
Apparently, not as long as they think.

The press conference with the 2 guys arrested for it in Boston

[XeVeNskyLiNE]

Wow, just wow.

[vinnym86]

"what i really wanna talk about is 70's hair styles."

[MonsterBengt]

Your country is doomed, really

[Toksin]

I love how the things were up for TWO FUCKING WEEKS before they did anything about them.

Fuck Boston, seriously.


LOL @ the press conference.

[ec437]

Whoever thought those were bombs caused more terror than "terrorists" do.


Therefore the terrorists have won.


Idiots.

[v10_viper]

Haha...Aquateen Hungerforce is the shit...Meatwad owns all cartoon characters.

Oh, and Boston's fucking dumb.

You guys do realize not everyone watches ATHF.
Most have no idea who Err and Ignignokt are. It is understandable why they saw these "mysterious objects" as a threat no matter how ridiculous they looked.

I mean, I would have liked to side with perpetrators, but after that interview I have to agree with the city of Boston.
Those two guys acted like douches.

When your being arrested, try to act like adults, alright kiddies.
Off to jail for you... yea, you won alright... "you shook the establishment"

...Goddamn hippie douches.

Get real. You think people are going to hide bombs in plain sight, made to look like GIANT FUCKING LED SIGNS?

At least they saw how ridiculous the city was acting.



establishment, establishment, you always know what's best ~~

[AlbanyCartel]

No bomb is technically in plain site.

It isn't as if bombers leave behind sticks of dynamite near their target. They are hidden in backpacks, stuffed animals, automobiles, etc. and left unassumingly, in plain site. But I do agree that giant LEDs would have been a bad idea.

To tell you the truth, I just hate hippies so Goddamn much. I'll fight against anything they are apart-of.

The establishment isn't always right but if you want it to change, become
one, a lawyer and two, (and more importantly,) a civil adult.

Guys, think about it. Who the hell sees an unknown electronic object and automatically assumes "bomb" no matter what the thing actually looks like?
