Looks to me like they will be right to do so.

    The hijacker is like "what the fuck, man"?
    I wonder if that is the point at which he just gave up.

    Did the pseudo-hijacker take the photo?

    (I thought selfies are self-taken?)

    It's so strange and also sad to me how modesty - just even a sense of decorum - has faded so much over the last few years.

    It's like a Donald Trump supporter in a selfie with a joker.

    Wow, I'm not sure which of the two is the bigger douchenozzle.

    And Hedo, I agree about the incorrect use of "selfie". It puzzles me that even though it is a relatively new word, people are already using it incorrectly. For the younger kids - a "selfie" that isn't taken by one's self, is typically called a picture or photo or photograph. At least that's what we called it in the olden days.

    So do I. the defining point of the last fuck given? Yes, sure...but not sure why anyone would see it as anything other than someone having a sense of humour in a totally humourless situation.
    Have to wonder if this guy knew the hijacker wasn't blowing anything up.
    And...is that a bomb belt? How do you get that thru security? I obviously haven't followed this story at all....
    edit: ok, clicked the link...fake belt.

    This thread was a very nice comedic one to read and AMT needs more of these every once in awhile.
    Instead of this thread spiralling down into the depths of how stupid humans are and how we are doomed it generated humour.
    Something all humans need to be reminded of.
    This is a very funny picture.
    Kind of like art, the beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

    It is funny but sad too.

    I'm curious - even if a fake belt, did it get through security like that - fitted - or in parts?

    Guess I'm just over the whole selfie thing.

    It's not sad in any way whatsoever!
    It's hilarious because this pic depicts the culture clash of 1st and 3rd world ideas.
    Yup buddy, that thing around you is awesome you idiot.
    Let me get a pic before you are introduced to the real world.
