The WNBC News Chopper 4 (New York) crashed tonight in Brooklyn. Amazingly, they all survived. A WABC helicopter caught it all on tape...here's the link.

Well since nobody was hurt seriously I feel free to make fun a bit: Maybe they just thought the news was too boring and typical lately, so they had to spice things up a bit! Hmmmm...kind of suspicious don't you think?

WTF is C3PO supposed to be USEFUL for anyway, besides whining? Stupid piece of scrap metal would be more useful recycled as a toaster. But even that would suck, because who would want to listen to a whining wussy toaster? Is he gold plated? If that's the case he should just be melted down into gold ingots. Help the economy some, and stop being so damn useless you stupid bucket of bolts! R2 is 1,000 times more useful than your tin man ass, and he's shaped like a salt and pepper shaker FFS!

Were they crossing a sim border at the time of the crash?

Man I never heard of someone taking the term "breaking news" so literally.
