looks like things are normal again

6/30/2010 8:08:41 PM

the longer they take to say what it actually was the dumber we can expect it to be

6/30/2010 8:09:33 PM

yep, it was foam

Yeah I probably should've cited that...

6/30/2010 8:45:26 PM

I came in here to post ^^^, saw you did, so I just posted teh link

6/30/2010 8:47:05 PM

Did they use the bomb robot to figure out what they needed at most some binoculars for?

6/30/2010 8:49:43 PM

SO THIS IS WHY MY 6 HOUR DRIVE TURNED INTO A 9 HOUR FUCKMYLIFE FEST?

god I hate everyone on the planet so much right now

6/30/2010 8:50:09 PM

I am going to quote myself here, not to pat myself on the back but because everyone including the GOLO slackjaws were all able to tell from the circa-1995 webcam that wral has on their helicopter that it was some damn funoodles:

" i'm looking forward to the explanation of why it took 3 hours and counting to neutralize the threat of funoodles"

Stupid police give the terrorists more ideas every day.

Anybody who ever, even once, thought this thing even might pose an actual threat is simply retarded.

6/30/2010 9:11:36 PM

I'm surprised to see no national news venues reporting on this and poking fun at the whole thing. The possible headlines are endless.

Raleigh-Durham shut down due to impending threat of pool noodle

7/1/2010 7:57:18 AM

There are so many ways to use this in the future:

"Officer, I know I was speeding, but I saw a kid back there with a pool toy and some tape. As you know, it's better to be safe than sorry, sir."

"Officer, I think my funoodle fell out of my truck-bed back here somewhere, and I wanted to get it before you guys shut down the whole state."

"Officer, by law I am required to inform you I am in possession of a legally concealed funoodle....with tape and a bungee cord."

"It looks like a purple floating "pool noodle" cut into 3 sections and taped together. It's definitely some type of makeshift padding off of someone's construction/repair truck. "

I win.

This is the person that does press conferences for the Durham police?

7/1/2010 12:41:11 PM

possibly something that's made or from somewhere else

7/1/2010 12:46:01 PM

Things that have completely shut down triangle area transit in recent years.

1) 1 inch of ice
2) a Swimming pool noodle
3) ?

Seriously, were they doing filming for a new Super Troopers movies without telling anyone?

7/1/2010 1:02:18 PM

Whoever taped those fun noodles together is guilty of attempted murder of a police officer!!!

7/1/2010 1:05:13 PM

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

GOOD ONE smc!!!

i have a hard time believing that the marines in iraq are dealing with a lot of "we shall murder the infidel with his own funoodle"

Sorry to everyone for the messed up drive, but this is what i was laughing at. This guy is gonna be the laughingstock of a bunch of law enforcement.

DURHAM PWNT, STAY HOME

7/1/2010 3:25:51 PM

in all seriousness, can someone explain to me the point of shutting down 40 and stopping traffic in a bomb threat situation??


wouldnt it be better to allow for escape? with the way assholes drive up on the shoulders in stalled traffic how in the hell would emergency vehicles get where they need o go and how is it safe having people sit there with no real means of escape in the event of an actual threat to the public

7/1/2010 4:18:15 PM

so when's the 911 tape come out?

7/1/2010 8:34:46 PM

I wonder if the own of the funnoodle has been watching the news at all

7/2/2010 12:29:32 AM

Oh god this is hilarious

7/2/2010 4:21:14 AM

^4 The best part of any first responder's job is being able to
SHUT
EVERYTHING
DOWN!

It makes them feel powerful. It's the same reason poor people like to stand in middle of the street.

It's out.
The guy reports it as an IED, but then begs repeatedly for them to not call the bomb squad.
He was ready to circle back and check it out himself (WHICH HE SHOULD HAVE, BEFORE CALLING)

7/2/2010 6:54:19 AM

^^lol

i reckon...

roadside bomb....i am kinda disappointed, I was kinda hoping that someone called 911 after seeing a man dressed in full bomber man garb place the bomb at the roadside

7/2/2010 1:52:06 PM

so i'm thinking it was either someone's homemade boatfender or maybe padding for a canoe or kayak on the roof.

7/2/2010 1:55:52 PM

I'll bet that someone at the Durham PD had just watched The Hurt Locker.
