I almost died listening to Battles!

ZEROpumpkins · 02.12.2008, 02:31 AM

So I was walking to the city this afternoon after school. I got out early and started walking to Broadway. I got there at about 1:30 and decided to take a shortcut through the middle of the carpark to get to the road. On the way I noticed an electricity sub station and I tried to see if I could look inside. I then continued on my walk. When I got home I found the whole thing exploded 15 minutes later and caused a massive fire. I saw the footage on the news: I wouldn't have survived.

But yeah I was listening to Tonto at the time.

I thought you had a heart-attack while listening to it.

ZEROpumpkins · 02.12.2008, 02:43 AM

I'd rather that then being FUCKING EXPLODED!

pbradley · 02.12.2008, 02:49 AM

I'm sure we can blame the Battles for this in some way.

ZEROpumpkins · 02.12.2008, 02:54 AM

For rocking?

SYRFox · 02.12.2008, 03:00 AM

For blowing the fire out of electricity stations, sure

pbradley · 02.12.2008, 03:01 AM

A riff bounced from your head phones and acoustically ricocheted within the structure for fifteen minutes until it finally exploded.

ZEROpumpkins · 02.12.2008, 03:19 AM

Haha repped

dressedindreams · 02.12.2008, 03:22 AM

It would've been a good death though.

ZEROpumpkins · 02.12.2008, 03:25 AM

After I listened to Battles, I almost died of boredom. Not even the ambulance crew that came to pick me up were sympathetic towards me.

I thought the same thing when I first saw the thread title. It's a little ambiguous. I wonder how we might re-phrase this to avoid confusion? Perhaps: I almost died in an accident while listening to Battles.

Or: While listening to Battles, I missed by several minutes being involved in a possibly fatal accident.

Or: I was listening to Battles while walking past a utility substation. If I'd hung around, I might have been caught in its explosion.

Suggestions?
