There’s been discussion over the last couple of years on whether or not September 11th should be made into a national holiday. Now the general idea is that it’d be a solemn occasion or an annual day of mourning. Now matter what it’d end up being outrageous potential traditions you can come up with? Think of things that are as far out in left field and in the worst possible taste you can. Stuff that would get you a black eye (or worse) if you say it in front of the wrong person.
Everybody builds (or buys) a model of the Twin Towers (about the size of an Xmas tree) and put’s it up in their living room sometime between the 5th of July and September 10th; then on the morning of the 11th at at 10 o-clock smash the towers. Old men could dress up like Osama bin Laden and hand out candy or toy airplanes (or candy shaped like planes) to children. Small children could bake gingerbread businessmen and take them upstairs and throw them out the windows. Carolers could dress up like Uncle Sam and Lady Liberty and go sing songs accusing their neighbors of being unpatriotic traitors. Everbody could wear American flag lapel pins. Pentagon cakes with one side smashed into rubble. People could decorate their yards with miniture coffins draped in little American flags while hanging a “Mission Accomplised” banner over their front door. Somehow combine bobbing for apples with waterboarding. My Pet Goat cartoon specials. A costume party where half the guests dress like soldiers and the other half are stipped naked and made to wear dog collars or lingerie.
