Aqua Teen Art 'Terrorist' Describes His Ordeal

destinyland writes "Boston police arrested artist 'Zebbler' for installing L.E.D. devices that promoted Aqua Teen Hunger Force (after police mistook them for bombs). He's finally shared the real behind-the-scenes story about his arrest and release. He describes his interrogation ('My interrogator gave me nothing but carrots to eat') and remembers a surreal exchange with a police officer. ('My daughter is a huge fan of you ... So, did you really mean to blow up Boston?') Now his latest project is a cool high-definition/surround sound installation for an event called RIP.MIX.BURN.BAM.PFA."

    Considering the amount of explosions in ATHF, I consider the threat to be completely valid. Remember everyone, terrorists clearly mark the bombs with flashing lights, to be widely apparent to everyone, so that they have a chance to observe the bomb before it explodes.

      I am saddened, my sarcasm has been lost upon you.
       
      Perhaps I should cover my sarcasm in lights in the shape of ATHF characters.

      On the third floor, displayed in the window of one of the offices, was a timer. And it was counting. Up.

      For future reference, timers that count up are commonly referred to as "clocks".

    With your incredible mental acuity, you have a promising career ahead of you in the Boston Police Department, or perhaps the Department of Homeland Security.

    I'm sorry, but this thread is going completely wrong. Everybody knows terrorists put a countdown clock on a bomb. In order to disable it you have to cut any of the colored wires at T minus 1 second.

    Now do you still trust him to protect and serve in Boston? Duh!
