Heâd already freehand drawn a sketchy approximation of the trajectory of the missile on a whiteboard! This plan for international destruction was already in the advanced phase!
Such a sad world we live in. Mr. Smithâs fear for how he would be treated by the authorities is more reasonable than some curtain-twitcherâs fear of âterrâistsâ.
Weâve pumped up the fear so much, itâs hard to know what not to be afraid of! And the cops typically will count false positives like this one, as proof that itâs working. (protip: a real terrorist would likely be more discreet)
Thatâs why I prefer to call it âwar with terrorâ instead of âwar on terrorâ.
The ambiguity is deliberate: terror is a weapon of war, not an enemy.
I suppose heâs lucky he doesnât have an Arabic surname.
The story would be very different, in that case 
Indeed. Game designing while brown is a known terrorist activity as well. Also walking while brown, in some places, and breathing while brown.
In those cases merely owning a blank white board and some (gasp) red markers would probably be sufficient cause for rendition.
Apropos of brit developers and thermonuclear war; anyone with a taste for the same should check out DEFCON. Does an excellent job of capturing the aesthetics of The Big NORAD Board and the grim absurdity of trying to win at MAD.
Campaigns like the US âSee something, say somethingâ where ordinary citizens are asked to be âhyper vigilantâ and report âsuspiciousâ behavior canât help either.
Chuck Jones and his team at Warner Bros would have been on a watch list for sure:
He is also lucky that he apparently doesnât have a dog. Shooting dogs seems to be SOP for cops making âdynamic entries.â
Iâm sure the raid would have been a lot better with a Carl Stalling score.
Looks like this guy was trying to reinvent DEFCON
Sorry, this is all Iâve got:
roughly same intelligence level thoughâŚ
Only a true mastermind could come up with such an intricate plan. It stands to reason he has a background in rocket science as well.
Why is she looking at the speaker? Like a dog staring at your finger instead of what youâre pointing at.
Also, how come China, France, and Israel arenât options?
+100 points and 1XP for using the phrase âI absolutely bricked it.â
