NATO, Taliban Go To War On Twitter

[Dr Snakeman]

This is great. Next thing you know, the U.S. Army is going to form a "69th Troll Division". When that happens, you can count me in.

 

[Marmooset]

Problem, Mullah?

 

[Owen Robertson]

Holy fuckballs that's sad. Well we can spare a lot of innocent lives by simply boiling war down to its most basic form: name calling. And when we can do it in complete anonymity the venom spewed gets a lot more racist and entertaining to read. I'm all for it. Next up: Ireland vs. U.K.

Ireland: "Hahaha. You suck. We're free to be catholic, you pathetic wankers."
U.K.: "Right. Fuck off mate, before we come back there and show you potato-eating twats who ran the world for 4 bloody centuries!"

Etc... (BTW I chose this as an example because I find it amusing. I don't believe that some-sort of war is brewing. It's satire.)

You do realise the penal laws were dissolved 1800s, right.

Yes. But there was that whole 180 years of tension before it all blew up into the clusterfuck of a shitstorm it was. So... it's still funny.

NATO wins the grammar war.

I will never "respekt th talbn"

 

[Chickenlittle]

That's brilliant.

 

[Reishadowen]

..............really? o.0

Sign of the times: When bullets fail, start a flame war. My god, like it or not we're ALL in the digital age, aren't we?

 

[WaysideMaze]

Wow.

Just...Wow.

I am honestly stunned by this.

 

[kouriichi]

The people we entrust ti the safety of millions, are now arguing on twitter like schoolgirls, fighting over a boy who cheated on both of them.

Im not sure if this is funny, sad, or scary. But all i know is, the aliens hovering over our planet, monitoring our daily lives are LOL'ing their arses off.

I want to make a twitter account just to fuck with them and show them a masterly crated statistics chart from various diffrent sources showing how many noncombatants were killed by the US and how many were killed by there own attacks.

For a good five minutes I was at a loss for words. I just stared at the news with my mouth half open, not sure what to do...

Then I did the only thing that made sense. I laughed. I laughed my ass off.

Seriously, I did not see that happening. All I expected from the taliban was something along the lines of "allah will smite you people because we say so!" repeated ad nauseum.

 

[luckycharms8282]

While reading this I was like, "Wut?" I guess it's human nature to degenerate into an online flame war. The anonymity of the Internet makes everyone a tough guy.

 

[The Random One]

This is both sad and hilarious, but much more hilarious than sad.

I don't know if that should be a horror book or a fancy perfume.

 

[Xanthious]

I guess having a slap fight was just too manly for them . . . .

 

[cainx10a]

I couldn't even read that. Seriously.

I'm not one to start massive flame wars myself, but...English, people. Do you speak it?

It's not really that bad, he was just hungry so he ate off a few characters from his words, I mean he is a poor taliban after all, right?

 

[Redlin5_v1legacy]

I normally don't approve of trolling, but if we're trolling the taliban, then I not only approve, I'd encourage it.

If we can make a mockery of them, we are not afraid.

I was wondering when it would happen.

"@ISAFmedia i dnt knw.u hve bn pttng thm n 'harm's way' fr da pst 10 yrs.Razd whole vllgs n mrkts.n stil hv da nrve to tlk bout 'harm's way'"

Oh god, my 10 year old nephew has better grammar than that.

 

[Volothos]

Fucking twitter. What will they think of next?

Something that covers the world in shit no doubt.

That pic! MUDDY BUDDY!

Ahem... sorry about that, a podtoid reference >.>

That aside: ISAF? What is this, Ace Combat?

 

[MurderousToaster]

WAR.

WAR NEVER CHANGES.
