They had amazing hair. I loved all their hair commentary. Best response to a literal media circus.

It was less beautiful if you spent two hours stuffed into a subway car (because at first they kept trains moving toward where the device was, but they were slowed, so we stopped at two packed stations full of people who were going to be late for work.)

Yes but those signs had WIRES and BATTERIES, which are clear indicators of sinister intent.
