Default Where are the jokes about the tube bombs?

Shock and anger? What shock and anger? Yes, we were shocked on thursday,
but we'd been expecting this for months, years even. Yes, we'd rather the
terrorists hadn't done this, and we hope they're brought to justice, but
that's not anger. You make out like the people of London are on the brink
of collapse, but they're not - anything but. Life goes on as normal.


I agree. Even on Breakfast TV yesterday they were going on about the
"chaos" in London this morning and when they showed shots of people they
were acting normally. I blame the 24 hour TV news culture - all trying to
out dramatise each other.


Oh, and i think that joke is bloody funny.


It's not that funny, but at least people are trying to get a grip on it with
humour.
