Now take that piece of paper and turn it upside down. What do you get?

I'm dumb, I dont get it:(

Read the first few posts. I gave away the answer. Just in case you are too lazy here it is again.

10-11-06 upside-down is 9-11-01

10-11-06 upside down is 90-11-01.

It almost works, but almost is the operative word. Let it go.

ZOMG, I found another one!

10 - 11 - 06 = -7

Definitely a sign of bad luck! ZOMG!

It's like that old saying, "close only counts in horseshoes, handgrenades, and nuclear warfare."

Wait, nuclear warfare!?!! It's a sign we're all going to die!!!

What do you get?

Coincidence? :Q

EDIT: DAMNIT, the code keeps eliminating the backslash.

Screenie ;) I did it on paper, it looks like an airplane.

i knew this from long ago but couldnt figure out what it was until i actually did it, anyways :thumbsup: for the memories

Same here. I kept saying "I remember this, but wtf did it make?" and eventually gave up trying to think of it and did it on a piece of paper. Then i laughed. Good old Elementary/Jr. High school humor. :D

Cartman: Remember that there are in fact two towers. Two minus one is one; one one - 11; two minus one is one; one one, and there are nine members on Silverstein's board of directors. That's nine-one-one. Nine-eleven. And take 2 - 1 + 9/11 and you get 12, which leads us all to the mastermind of th 9/11 attacks. Kyle!

Kyle:Me??

Cartman: Twelve contains the numbers one and two, just like the toilet yesterday where somebody went number two instead of number one! Add one and two with 911 and you get 914! Drop the 4 and it's 91! Exactly the score Kyle got on his spelling test twelve days after 9/11! Who has the most to gain from 9/11?! Kyle! Who was nowhere to be found the morning the towers fell?! Kyle! Who dropped the deuce in the urinal?! Kyle! But probably the most damning of all is the evidence seen in this photo of Tower 2! When I zoomed in I saw what first appeared to be a blur, but when I computer-enhanced it, You almost got away with it, you sneaky butthole.
