The latest in a long line of using a date to signify a terrorist attack, making the journalists job easier as they have shorthand...but misses the point entirely.
The reason? How can two dozen men being arrested on suspicion of looking Arabic be at all related to 3000 people being killed on 9/11? There was no attack, so therefore the term is meaningless, journalistic slang that led to paranoid airport security.
The fact that, a month on, those not released quietly are being held on not giving evidence of a terror attack is quite fishy, don't you think?

Journo 1: "The police are trying to appear important by randomly arresting two dozen people without evidence, and can't get their story straight!"
Journo 2: "Quick, in order to make it easier and scare the readers into buying our paper for the way forward, give it a date. What's today's date?"
Journo 1: "10th August, 2006."
Journo 2: "10/8 it is, then!"

From a distance, the chick looks like a 10. But as she gets closer, she goes from a 9, to an 8, to a 4.

The unwritten motto of all schools. They see that students should get 8-10 hours of sleep but read it as -2 hours of sleep.
Quinn - I've got 14 hours of homework to do in 12 hours.
School - Well, 8-10=-2 hours of sleep is all you need.
Quinn - Shut the fuck up.

A common schoolyard joke, where a kid will ask you which number is your favorite. If you say 8, you're a lesbian (two vaginas), if you say 10, you're straight (a dick and a vagina), and if you say 11, you're gay (two dicks). Personally, this is an offending joke that makes fun of sexualities as wholes. You shouldn't hate gays, or you hate 1/10 of all humans on Earth with meeting most of them.
Some annoying kid ask ed me 8, 10, or 11, but since there's no number that represents bi, I just said I couldn't decide between 10 and 11 :>
